Gimmie plain ol' original NES with Super Mario Bros/Duck Hunt and I'm off and flying ;) I have so many nostalgic memories of that it isn't even funny. I just don't get the same feeling off the new systems it's gotta be old school all the way! YAY 80's! haha

lol agreed on the "same feeling" bit. Even if the games are remade for the new systems, it's still not the same!

I have to admit I do like the racing games on the newer systems but other than that gimme old school NES. I like Sega too but NES was the best.

Aww you should totally pick one up or get one of the newer reincarnations that play the games! Did you ever play the PR SNES games? I think I've finally collected them all
I've played the PR games on SNES, Genesis, GameCube,GBA, DS and PS2. xDD that's alot of power rangers if you ask me.

I played Dino Thunder for GC/PS2..it was beyond awful. I also had SPD for the GBA, and it was OK.

I don't think I ever tried to beat the DT game. I know I've been all the other SNES games except for Zeo Racers...stupid holes to fall in

I have Zeo Racers on my laptop..All I can think of when I play it is just how much it makes me think of Mario Kart.

Just not in a good way. I do know that there was a Mystic Force game in development but was canned along with the Gamecube and wii versions of Super Legends.

Zeo Racers was fun for the 2 player games though. My sister and I enjoy trying to knock each other off the platform, only to end up being our own demise... I do so loathe bad control

I'm definately an old school gamer. I grew up on the NES. My NES eventually died and I traded it in on a refurbished one in early 2000's But the old system constantly have problems working. I did end up buying an FC Twin(which I thought was the coolest thing ever) which plays NES and SNES games. I love that system, the only downfall is that you can't use the zapper gun with it. About a year ago I came across the GN Twin while looking for a Sega for my friend. So I had to get that, too. It plays Sega and NES games.

I mainly play NES, SNES, and Sega. My boyfriend has newer systems- the only game I'll play on N64 is Mario Kart because that game is awesome. I do have one new system- the DS because you can play many old games on it such as the orignal Mario games, Pac Man, Zelda, Bubble Bobble, etc. A lot of the new games on the DS are side scroll games, too. So in a way it is like playing an old system. I like that you can play GBA and DS games on the DS. I like dual systems ;)
