nrslam | 477 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 No, not the Nintendo Switch, but the switch from that *other* site to here. Looking forward to a fresh start. By way of introduction, I'm a collector of most anything videogame and vintage computing related. After amassing a massive collection I'm now spending my retirement years actually playing some of the games I found over the years. Turns out I suck at playing most games, but hey, they still look pretty on the shelves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VegHead | 127 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Welcome to VGS! What kind of vintage computing do you do? Personally, I want to eventually get into C64 games, and I use one of their monitors for my vintage games tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Atari 2600 was my first console so I've got a soft spot for it, and my 3DS and WiiU probably get the most play, but I really prefer older computers, especially the C64. 6 hours ago, epiclotus said: Welcome to VGS! What kind of vintage computing do you do? Personally, I want to eventually get into C64 games, and I use one of their monitors for my vintage games tv. I started with the C64 back in 1982 when they were brand spanking new, after a couple years of using cp/m machines. Part of my wife's dowry when we hitched up was a VIC-20 so I got a chance to try that out too. Later, when they started showing up at the thrifts/yard sales I picked up the competitors (Atari,CoCo,TI99 and later Amiga and Atari ST) to see what I had missed out on. I love them all, but the C64 is the only one I know well enough to sound semi-intelligent discussing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
