Okay this is going to be a bit long:
When I was younger, my dad and I called Mortal Kombat II "Fight" because on the Game Gear version when you start a round, a voice sample (turned out to be done by composer Matt Furniss, recently discovered that) said "Fight" and didn't know the name of the game until later.
I originally bashed the PSP as a cutdown PS2 and downplayed the Vita as in even though it is a lovely machine, it didn't have many games. Later on (can't remember on PSP but this year for the Vita) I actually got them handhelds and don't regret them at all.
Half of the Vita games are games that if I got the PS3 version, I get the Vita version for free and saw it as really good deal even though in reality I got them since it had a free game. The games needed a memory card that costs money but still I can't complain on free PlayStation All-Stars, Alien Breed, The Pinball Arcade, Sly Cooper 4 (even though I wanted it) and Jetpack Joyride that was already free to begin with.
I took back the original Phoenix Wright game on the DS due to the 2nd case that caused Mia Fey (I think it was her) to be murdered and got upset and depressed about that. I don't want to play a game that causes depression even if it is good.
I once played the 3DS in a gaming shop for something like 20 seconds and it made me completely poorly as in weak and dizzy for a full 10 minutes. It was due to that the 3D slider was on and even then my poor vision couldn't see the 3D effect anyway. Later on I did try again at another gaming shop while waiting for something with the 3D off and couldn't enjoy the game due to depth persception problems but was luckily enough to complete the stage. It is the only console that made me poorly (that and playing past 2km in the PS3 version of Jetpack Joyride made me a bit cross eyed due to the really fast scrolling rate). For this reason, it is why I don't have a 3DS and sadly have to miss out on Mario Kart 7, Super Mario 3D Land, Luigi's Mansion 2, Star Fox 64 and a couple of other games.
Now for some shorter ones:
- I don't see the appeal of phone gaming since there's only so much that you can do on a touchscreen and playing a game that realise on touchscreen as a controller doesn't feel right plus it covers the screen.
- Lost interest in Pokemon in 2000 due to an upsetting event.
- Completely lost in today's gaming society and can't understand half the things that people talk about.
- Aren't keen on Resident Evil 1 to be honest but thought it wasn't bad.
- Same thing to Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker however they are very good games still.
- Have a Steam account but the only thing there was a gifted game and not really into PC gaming (emulators asides).
- My copy of New Super Mario Bros. U is still in its packaging unwrapped due to not having a Wii U and only got it cause it was the cheapest place at the time (apart from used, the price I got it was still cheaper than now).
- Found GTA IV really disappointing and annoying (Roman, Brucie and that Mc family all nagging you to take them somewhere while you are trying do a mission and get somewhere in the game) and that puts me off GTA V.
- Don't like most sports games (with exceptions) due to FIFA and mouldly oldly football games nobody wants are everywhere especially car boot sales where everything you see is a PS2 football game.
- Still call Namco Bandai Namco out of habit and Atari between 2001-2009 Infogrames. Oh and seeing Sega called SEGA by the younger Sonic fans makes me twitch.
