No way. Thirtysomething NintendoGAF is best! We even have a tv show named after us that no one under said age would get the reference to
I watched I Love the 80s, I know what thirtysomething is, thank you very much!
At least have some respect for those that fought in the console wars.

I won't comment on age but those who lived through the Sega-Nintendo war lived through savage times
And yet there is a certain nostalgia for that era now

Almost 40's GAF has lived through it all, and it damn proud of it
I was the oddblall all into the TG-16 so that was my battle

It's funny because a lot of us dress like this.
BY2K isn't part of best NintendoGAF? Say it ain't so.

It's like finding a living fossil!
Tell us about the wooden toys!
Early 20s-something NintendoGAF is best NintendoGAF
20 ftw XD
Blast Processing, HAH!
Naw man, we had STEEL toys with flying fists and shit...

I never fought it, the Genesis was just what was given to me as a kid, so that's what I played.
I'm 22.

Oh shit, post-30 GeezerGAF in the building
Indeed. I respected Sega. A gaming company. Making gaming machines. No ulterior motives. Pretty refreshing.
(and yes, we geezers have Zelda save files on cartridges that are older than the "mature" gamers out there..)(ha!)

You just haven't lived long enough to go crazy yet.
And yeah, this is why this thread is being moved to community tomorrow.
Are you sure they're still there? Don't they run down after a few decades?
I tried my Zelda 2 cart about a year and a half ago. Still working. Amazing, eh?
I love cartridges.
That's Wart from Mario Bros. 2. I remember getting the Nintendo Fun Club news when I was around 8 and thinking R.C. Pro Am looked amazing......... Is that King K Rool in a Nintendo Power issue from 1988?! What am I missing

SEGA VS Nintendo barely even happened here in the UK. Mega Drive dominated, plus we had the Amiga.
Now that's something I'd believe!
My best friend across the street had a Genesis, and I had the SNES. We'd trade gaming time at each others' houses. The anger wasn't really there for us for stuff like that. Ignorance really was bliss..
I was pissed when I discovered it was offered as and exclusive to NEC/Hudson for the turbo, but management passed on it cause "No one wants fighting games"
Oh the tears it would have caused, and the duo would have pumped out a pretty damn good conversion

Amen.
"Gonna make you sweat 'til you bleed!"
EGM used that as the headline for one of their articles on the matter. As salty as I was about the whole thing at the time, that headline still cracks me up to this day.

A little more on topic, wsippel just posted this in the other thread. I wasn't aware of the fact that Nintendo had its own engine for the Wii U it was allowing other studios to use, unless I'm reading this wrong.
And Terranigma.

Is it new or something they've always used?

They've had one for every console.
The problem is that most developers (outside of Nintendo) don't like using it, since well... it only works on one system.

War and economic pressure had become an old song-and-dance of "Genesis Does" and Genesisn't" routine for soldiers on both sides
When they were tired of battle they would go to these places called arcade where you could test your mettle in videogames. And people were dirt poor back then, so you only needed 25 cents to play a game. Developers were pretty generous back then. For example, rather than one dragon, they would give us 2 dragons.
Now you get maybe half a dragon at retail and you pay for the other one-and-a-half dragons as a premium. And you need online for multiple dragons action.

Proud representative of best Nintendo-GAF! Weird to think I could be closing in on becoming a member of thirty-something Nintendo-GAF when next-next gen occurs.

Ah ok I wasn't aware of that. Good point though that unless they're getting an exclusive title it serves no real purpose.

Rich, if you're reading this... SPILL NOTHING YOU JERK!
Yeah, but that seems too good to pass up if I were going to make an exclusive Wii U game, unless it's hard to use or something. Nintendo games almost always look amazing.
