Which era(s) of gaming was your childhood?

Which era(s) of gaming was your childhood?

mid 90s and onwards. i dont feel old

oh boy here we go with this again. another thread where kids born in the early 90s think they are hot shit

Every time period has good things

All 4

bump

Mix between early and core millenial

i feel great

does your weight start with 25?

There's overlap between those eras that's not really shown in the chart. For example, those candy iMacs are still used in middle-class schools to this day.

early and core
feels good man

Nope, 15

early millennial

manlet detected.

Early Gen Z master race reporting in

Core/Late Millennial.

Early/Core millennial, feels great to have experienced most things when they were at the height of quality.

Core/Late Millennial but we were kind of poor so my primary console was the SNES for a long time.

Killer Instinct and Top Gear were the first games I got gud at.

On a smaller scale note, which version of the Clone Wars was better? Left or right?

that particular example is only because school budgets are beyond shit and they can't replace them. You aren't wrong of course. I was born in '88 and early and core are pretty evenly split for me.

I was born in 99 so Late Millenial

But there's other examples too. Hey Arnold lasted until 2004. They still made new Tamagotchis in the 2000-2006 period and had a Tamagotchi Connection online game. The PS1 wasn't officially discontinued until 2006. However, accounting for so much overlap would probably mess up the chart.

underage b&

Mix of late and core.

It's pretty fucking stupid that you would include B:TAS and Batman Beyond in different categories though. I'm pretty sure that it went into syndication basically immediately since it was on [Canadian] TV throughout my childhood.

Late millenial here. Fuck yeah my childhood years were 1000% Spongebob, Teen Titans, Ben10 and other 'Gilded Age' Cartoon Network shows. It was great. Grim Adventures of Billy&Mandy was my favourite tho.

Wrong.

jesus i gotta get off this fucking board

I mean, I was nine years old in 1990, so I guess "early millennial" but my first console was an Atari 2600, and I have more good memories of the NES era than I do the Genesis/SNES era.

you were born in the 90s to faggot.

I was born '97 and all of what's 1996 to 2010 resonates with me.

Early Gen Z fag here, born in 98.

People born in the early 90s are very different from people born in the mid 90s. People born in the mid 90s are very different from people in the late 90s. A difference can be felt between people born in the three thirds of the 90s.

kek, your reaching.

Early is mostly before my time, core is the stuff I fondly remember, late is the stuff I remember being annoyed by.

Hello kiddy, how is highschool going?

Guess I know why this board is absolute garbage now.

Some of those early gen z things were the subject of many early youtube rants, lol. Back in 2008, it was dime a dozen finding commentators with crackly microphones and Comic Sans bitching about they hate Flapjack and Chowder and how they should bring back Ren & Stimpy and Rocko's Modern Life.

I don't know if it's as clearly delineated as user says, but the growth of the internet over the past 25 years has changed growing up a fuckload, not to mention 9/11 and the changes that brought. People born at the beginning of the 90s and at the end of the 90s experienced very different things.

I was born in August so I'm 18
Sorry I wasn't born around the time you were I guess. Not like I can help it.

people born in the 90s were fucking kids when that shit happened they didnt know what was going on, get fucked.

I wasn't bashing you or anything, I was just pointing out the differences due to the rapid advances in social media.

I was born in 1989 and my older brother was born in 1984. My first system ever was a Sega Master System I got as a hand me down and the first game I ever played was Altered Beast or Rampage, not quite sure which.

Feels good to be early millennial. If you're a fucking gen z you're a goddamn shit stain.

>I was born in 1989 and my older brother was born in 1984
kek how does it feel to be born in the same era as phil fish and antifa

You're a fucking moron all the schools stopped classes and we were watching the news in classrooms, you're telling me over 2000 people killed doesn't mean anything to a 6th grader?

80s was officially the golden age of arcades. 90s was the golden age of console gaming. In other words, if you are a gen z, you experienced neither and have no authority on them

yeah why would a 12 year old care?

original nintendo with 2d zelda, then super famicon, sega megadrive with my boy sonic and road rash 2
then n64 with banjo kazooie and goldeneye
then 486 with win95 and age of empire 2 demo and sim 1
never bought another console ever again

Core millennial reporting in, I did have a SNES though. N64 was when I really got into videogames.
I also played games on that piece of shit apple machine at my school.

the xbox 360 is better than every console from the 90s except for super nintendo and genesis although genesis was 88

Hey, August 1999 bro.

That doesn't make any sense.

They may not be able to understand the gravity of it all but I can guarantee it had an effect on them.

...

this is some good bait

What day? 20th here

the years need to be adjuisted.

I was born in 94, yet I had most of the "core millennial" stuff till I was around 10 or so in 2004, the "late millenial" till around 2008-2009, etc.

that doesnt answer my question faggot

>1987
100% Core

goddamnit meant this for

18th

retard cant even reply to people properly lel

87 is early idiot

That is a comically nonsensical attempt to politicize a not-necessarily political topic.

Open another tab in Sup Forums if you want political talk but this place is not for that.

Late millennial culture. Also
>No GameCube pictured
Shit infograph.

you dont even know what politics mean

Maybe it didn't have an immediate effect on them but I think any child or future children in school that are taught about 9/11 will definitely understand the gravity or weight of the situation simply if they put themselves in the shoes of people at the time.

Early gen Z. Flapjack was my shit.

why would he have the worst 6th gen console in there?

Do you morons think people's brains don't work before they graduate? I genuinely don't see why you would think kids wouldn't understand 9/11.

that still doesnt answer my question you little turd.

Core, but I fucking hate hey Arnold and Kenan and Kell

1987 is "late 80s"

See, you have 1-10, 5 is the middle number, you keeping up?
1
2
3
4
>5
6
7
8
9
10
So anything below 5 is "early" and anything above it is "late"

I was in 6th grade when 9/11 happened as well, and the teachers didn't turn on the TVs and didn't allow any of the students to know. They used the excuse that they thought our parents should tell us about it, as if anyone would make the choice to not tell their kid, and as if ignorance of this event would somehow benefit the kid, and as if they wouldn't find out anyway.

All of that early Clone Wars media stuff certainly tricked me into thinking Star Wars prequel material was cool as a kid, and by the time the right side stuff happened I couldn't bring myself to care at all, so I guess left side.

core millennial and that's honestly pretty accurate

...

kek XD

Late Millenial

But using media as a basis of age is kinda shifty unless you're American. Some Chilean who's 14 now might've grown up with a PS2

Cote/Late millenial

Late milennial/early gen Z. a bit of both.

How can you hate Hey Arnold? Hey Arnold is pure kino

...

Only because no one even remembers shit about the Dreamcast.

What's the problem George

dreamcast was better than the gamecube faggot

I unironically love CG the clone wars, but left side had better games

core/late millenial

Which gen is this kino?

I was living in Canada and it was pretty serious business for my school, we were watching the major news networks. My dad didn't stop watching CNN for the next 4 months.

Dreamcast was so bad it killed Sega's consoles for good.

He was referring to the chart in OP

Late Millennial, it's on the chart

I was supposed to be Late Millennial culture by logic, but I live in a shithole so I grew up majorly with Early Millenial and Core Millenial stuff like Genesis, 80’s TMNT, Gargoyels, Recess, Hey Arnold nd etc.

sega was dying either way

Born to taste SNES era. Got into the N64 era. Totally disillusioned with my life and all things trying to entertain me by Gamecube era.

and the gamecube was so bad nintendo ditched their audience for the casual market

this.
I was born in the late 90s but grew up on old shit because we were poor

Mix between core and late.

Early/Core millennials are superior in every way.

>Ditched its core audience
>Wii had a multiple Zelda titles, multiple flagship Mario titles, and an edition of Smash, just like the Gamecube did before.
LMAO, you're making shit up now.
