Why did they drop the Game Boy branding with the DS? Was it woke?

>>724149198
They didn't trust that the DS would actually sell, so they didn't want to taint the Game Boy name in case they had to give up on the dual screen idea and go back to a gimmick free handheld.

Jokes on you, I'm 8 months older than it. Get fucked OP.

Kids born on 9/11 are retiring from da military, bro. Did it...

Did it happen to you? Is it moving too fast? It gets faster.

oh my goood the passage of time ohhhh nooooooo, skibidi toilet is the worst content ever despite the fact that when we were kids we were laughing at "my spoon is too big" as if it were the pinnacle of absurdist humor oh noooooo

>>724149061 (OP)
me and my 3 siblings got DS lites that christmas.
pictochat alone was hours of entertainment

>>724149061 (OP)
And? I was 18 in 2006 when I first started using 4chan, and nobody complained about millennials or gen-x or whatever back then.
Let the kids be young and stupid, they'll come around when the time's right, just like we did.

>>724149061 (OP)
nintendo more like bintendo cuz i throw that shit in the trash nigga

bros, I think we are going to die one day
time isn't stopping
my dreams aren't turning into reality
everything is falling apart slowly

I remember liking the DS at the time but now I cant really even think of 10 games I liked on it. What jumps to mind is Metroid Prime Hunters Onilne as that was really fun. The first 2 Castlevania DS games and the first Phoenix Wright game but that was already on gba so I dunno if it counts.

Why couldn't they have just given the DSi a GBA slot?

>>724151829
>Did it happen to you?
And then some.

AVGN videos used to make me nostalgic for renting NES games. Now I'm nostalgic for the era of the AVGN videos themselves.

You can't mention NES games outside of /vr/ because these kids simply can't play them since they're obsolete media. In my lifetime NES games went from new technology, to the Gamestop bargain bin, to the fleamarket, and now they're in museums as history.

You shouldn’t come to 4chan. You might get groomed by millennials.

post sneed to repel tranny groomers, they hate that, it triggers them something fierce

Tell us zoomer things that we dont know about

>2006 kid

Life is good

November 2004 was a hell of a month.
>Half Life 2
>Halo 2
>Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater
>Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines
>World of Warcraft
It's sandwiched between GTA: San Andreas on October 26 and Knights of the Old Republic 2 in December.

Hell, September 2004 to March 2005 might be the craziest 6 month release period ever because you get these as well:
>Sly 2
>Katamari Damacy
>Star Wars Battlefront
>Paper Mario and Thousand Year Door
>Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath
>Star Wars Republic Commando
>The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap
>Fable
>Resident Evil 4
>Devil May Cry 3
>Splinter Cell Chaos Theory
>God of War
and the list keeps going.

I was born in 2003. I remember playing Kirby: The Amazing Mirror and NSMB DS. Good times, good times.

My big old man moment was a kid challenging me to Smash in an arcade and realizing I had probably been playing the series twice as long as he has been alive.

sybau unc ts pmo fr bruh

I'm glad kids have their own cool stuff these days. I don't care about 6-7 nonsense, but it warms my heart that kids will always find new ways to have fun.
A question for the young. What are some games you've played from well before your time that you greatly enjoyed?

couldn't be me

>>724149061 (OP)
it's scarier to think that some anons were already adults when these 'older' vidya released
i was still a wee lad when the ds released and i assume a decent chunk of people here were as well

>>724153413
I wasn’t even cognizant when all that came out bro. That’s fucking wild really.

>>724153246
I'm a zoomer but outside of the 3DS and PS3 I mostly played old retro games like the original Pokemon on the Game Boy and the original Sonic trilogy. I tried original Mario too but that was a little too hard.

>>724153246
2005 zoomer here
modern education (at least in america) sucks
they literally let children who couldn’t read into middle school
it’s not even race exclusive either, white kids who couldn’t read were also passing

>>724155859
schooling outside higher learning has always been a glorified daycare and they simply want to rush you out of the building so you're not a problem for them anymore
it's been like that for as long as i could remember
i think the difference now is just that they dropped most of the pretense that they care about teaching kids

Anyway, which DS model or models did /v/ have? I had a black and blue DS Lite and a white DSi later.

>>724156336
I went from an old DS to the gold zelda edition

>>724154503
Wizardry, started with the gacha and ended up liking it, just finished labyrinth of lost souls and I'm planning to start 6-8 soon

>>724155859
>it’s not even race exclusive either, white kids who couldn’t read were also passing
why do you think those white kids couldn't read though?

>>724156336
i got a launch DS when they came out, and i mostly neglected it due to MMO faggotry outside of family trips and stuff. i got a 3DS this year though finally and have been playing DS/3DS games i missed, even if the 3DS isn't the best way to play DS games

>>724153701
That's because you're a zoomer who was born too late to laugh at penguinz of doom and too early to lose his shit to skibidi. Instead, you're a jaded, humorless fuck who lived his life trying not to be a star of a cringe compilation.

>>724153413
I was in college back then, shit was amazing but all of that happened in the backdrop - LAN parties were the prime attraction, we had one every few months or so. Very fun period. All between two to hundreds of attendees. Lugging your kit over to a mate to play HL crossfire for hours or whatever

i actually feel bad for them. going through the progression of consoles was magical

>>724149061 (OP)
Being a kid during the DS/Wii era was great because you could connect so easily with other people just by enjoying a game together. I stuck with the consoles when other kids were abandoning theirs to play mature games for mature gamers instead, which meant I got to play all the cool stuff that came out during the end of both consoles' lifespans. Then Nintendo shat the bed hard in the 3DS/WiiU era even if the former had some fun stuff on it

>>724151281
actually your life is pretty much over at 18 if you don't have your shit together

>>724157121
You need to find group gatherings, various options here, hobbies, classes, whatever, find common ground, demonstrate your values, ask number, engage physically

Run and tackle?
Good advice but do people ask for numbers these days?
Demonstrate your value, like, whip it out? My value?

>>724156964

NO

Young people don't use 4chan anyway

You should have to be 30 or older to post here. If you don't remember how the world was before 9/11 you can't begin to comprehend how insane the world has become.

>>724161418
Stop raping your own kids that would be a good start

>>724161514
kek so was i, so even with a 21 year old account my hours played and games don't reflect it due to spending the first 10 years of steam's existence being an mmofag
>>724161324
only visuals. it's still better than emulating because of the form factor, but the pixel stretching is god awful (at least on a New 3DS XL that i havem, not sure about others)
