wow people keep on coming up with such nice ways of saying "I'm 30 years old". I think this beats out "Yea, I've been around in the scene for a while haha"
My way of choice is to say "I feel old" when people mention something they enjoyed as a kid that came out when I was an adult. For example the phrases "my childhood Nintendo Switch" or "I couldn't vote when Trump was elected" make my back hurt.
I’m fifteen and like half this stuff.
That's different though, the people your age are so devoid of hope for the future that y'all aesthetics loop back around to early 2000s or even earlier because that's the last time technology was viewed in a good way for the future and y'all yearn for that
See: re-emergence of y2k culture, Sanrio, cassette tapes, etc.
In terms of videogames, this generation of games was one of the last to not have internet connectivity as a rule. Given the predatory practices the internet has enabled, I don’t think their resurgence is a coincidence.
melee is an incredibly deep game and has provided me with far more replay value than yugioh or purple heinz
I do not find the smash games after melee all that fun, Melee was something else and Sakurai watering down the gameplay for the sake of the casual gamer (despite the fact that Melee was mega popular with casual gamers already) makes me unreasonably upset.
the only boomer opinion I allow myself to have is getting kinda slightly mad about modern smash fans claiming it's basically the same as classic format, in-depth fighting games. I don't like melee but the mechanics and execution there are way closer than the others (which are admittedly very fun party games).
Ultimate has finally backtracked far enough from the balloon-slapping physics of Brawl that I don't mind anymore. It's no Melee but it's at least a reliably fun party game again, which is all I ask of it.
I'm too cool for smash. All the cool kids played Tekken
I'm so glad I transitioned
It's some times weird for me that I have video games sitting in a drawer that are older then 80% of this site.
That's not a thought I needed to have inserted into my brain
If you can't waveshine with Fox then are you even a zillennial?
Linkin Park is underrated
YA Rock
Counterpoint, it was extremely overrated in its time.
Look at least I think all the age groups can agree that the GBA SP was a masterpiece of tech, look at that beautiful folding, backlit, rechargable marvel
As an elder, I got the retro-Nintendo version. Perfection.
I already have a more powerful handheld but the anbernic rg35xxsp is just so sexy
This is the guy that bought you some cigarettes
I don't really relate to most of this stuff. Idk, I started Pokemon later during the DS Lite era.
I hate not being able to relate to anybody.
nah same - first pokemon I actually played any amount of was platinum
It was Pearl for me but, Platinum was way better. Emerald was great too.
oh shit oh fuck genz is now is feeling old
please just put me in an asylum and treat my dementia 👴👴👴👴👴
I always preferred Morrowind. That said Smash Bros Melee is an absolute classic. As someone getting close to mid 30
I can relate to most of it except "2005 was lit." The whole Bush years were trash. That's why everyone was upset and listening to Linkin Park/ System of a Down.
But we got to “Rock Against Bush”, twice!
images like this make me wanna log off

i'm 20, and my early elementary experience was everything from gameboys and 90s pokemon to mario galaxy and adventure time to angry birds and youtube poop MLG brainrot. the gameboy because my parents couldn't afford a DS til i was 6, and 90s shows because my i got a tablet in 2nd grade and netflix/youtube had a lot of 90s shit.
Literally me too but why hate smash it's nice with friends
Oh god it's me. Just replace the Pokemon trilogy with the Need For Speed trilogy. I'm only in my mid 20s I don't deserve to be called out like this...
Blasphemy
Oblivion
no
I love the beginning of the game it has such a weird dreamlike quality to it. Then I get to closing oblivion gates and quit
I loved those albums, but I was usually listening while playing Perfect Dark.
I remember my friend lending me his Toxicity CD when my dad dropped him off, listening to it in the car on the way home, and having my mind blown. Besides being the most aggressive music I'd ever heard, it was my first exposure to overtly political music; the album opens with Prison Song, which dispenses with any sort of metaphor and is a straight-up polemic, introducing me to the effects of the drug war and CIA drug trafficking and regime change.
