The most depressing thing you will ever see

They were probably broken. I've destroyed many broken systems before. Genesis model 1, Genesis model 2, Atari Lynx, all on video or pics.

i am angry at homemade videos. videos make me angry.

Don't get mad. Get even with a homemade video and post it as a response.

(That Bubsy cart killed a Genesis. Justified destruction, imo.)

I jacked it twice since i've been here.

Pardon?

I like how he said the Atari 2600 port of Pac-man was "legendary."

I feel like starting a new youtube sensation....

Adults who beat the shit outta kids who destroy classic game consoles.

As for the Old Spice commercial.... Win-finity.

[buzz_n64]

Original Terry Crews Old Spice commercials. Still awesome, just not Duck Tales awesome.

I really don't care too much that the NES was smashed, considering the abundance in the wild. Anyway, what made me upset is that kids these days don't give 2 shits about a game unless it has good graphics.

This isn't really true, a lot of virtual console purchases are kids.

These are just the visible twats on youtube, not everyone is like this.



If Graphics were all that mattered, LittleBigPlanet wouldn't have sold so many copies.

I once worked at Savers (thrift store)(for a month)... My first day I had to sweep up everything that fell out of the trash compactor. I remember having a weird feeling sweeping up scattered bits of SNES.

That place was a joke, I remember watching things get thrown away because the pricer determined (quite often) that they were too old or that nobody would want them.

Good point on the LittleBigPlanet thing.

Anyway, I hate these little bastards. Its not that the NES is rare or anything, but it disappoints me that kids these days think a console sucks if it doesn't have Halo or some generic FPS. The NES is classic, and imo, the best game system ever. Kids at school think I'm some nerd because I actually ENJOY QUALITY GAMES THAT FOCUS ON GAMEPLAY INSTEAD OF GRAPHICS. (lol, how dare I) NES forever!

EXACTLY how I am, about being considered a nerdy person. I became fascinated with all the old consoles by the time I was 8 or 9, and never gave two shits about graphics. I'm told all the time "8-Bit Mario sucks. It isn't as violent as Mass Effect (or whatever the hell they play these days)". Makes me wanna strangle some people. And I'm 14 now too and I still don't give a shit about gay ass school fags.

Or I'd go into their house and steal their 360s, replacing it with an NES or other cool retro console and some games for it. I'd threaten to pawn their 360 if they didn't PROVE that they respected the 8 and 16 bit eras. Would make me a lot of money, or at least I'd think so. heh heh

Make it happen, dude. In fact, tie 'em up and point a gun to their heads. If they don't play the NES, you shoot them (or threaten too, I wouldn't actually kill them).

Just goes to show how stupid they really are. The VCS version was a piece of shit, and almost ended video games altogether as it's one of the main reasons the crash of 83 happened.

[Oobgarm]

I award them no points and may Miyamoto have mercy upon their souls...

I would like to highlight this part of the post.

[crux]

Somehow the hyperbole of the topic title saddens me more than the smashing of NESs.

[JimmyDean]

That asshole who designed the Atari 2600 pac-man apparently was getting guaranteed something like 1 million$ and just rushed through it. Dick even photocopied his check and taped it to his office door. What a crappy port, though. I'd still have liked to see the Atari port of Xevious come out, even though I resent Xevious and consider it one of the worst shmups of all time.

Hmmm...no offense, but you might want to do a bit more research/asking about this. You've got a few things wrong. Also, I've met him a couple times at CGE and he never struck me as an "asshole."

[JimmyDean]

Wow. I just watched the video again and if you look in the background these guys appear to be really poor. They should have kept that NES, it's probably the only one they can afford instead of a Shitbox 360. But seriously, I'd take Megaman 2 over MassEffect any day. Although I would take MW2 (which is okay, nothing special) over Ecco the Dolphin, which is complete shit.

Edit: That port was crap and you know it. He might not be an asshole, but he made one of the crappiest games of all time and influenced the crash of 83' to some extent. Have you ever played Pac-Man on 2600? Imagine being a little kid that just spent today's equivalent of around 40$ to play Pacman and ended up with the abomination that is Pac-Man on Atari 2600.

That's a bit much... A baseball bat to the kneecaps would do just fine. Then I would take whatever consoles they owned, and run it over with my car. Or keep it for myself, depending on if I don't own it already...
