What're your Gaming Wares?

As you may know, I'm a totally old-school gamer. In the home, I've got:

- A NES

- A SNES

- An N64

- A Gamecube

- A PS2

- A Genesis

- A Master System

- A Dreamcast

- An Atari 2600; and

- A DS, GBA and GB (not sure it works, but it doesn't matter 'cause GBA does)

My favourite games are platformers and RPGs; I'm partial to Nintendo (obviously...) and I love the Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Mega Man (Megaman?), Bomberman, Pokemon, Mother (yes, I know...one game plus a fan sub...), Tales of, Double Dragon, F-Zero, DKC (+64 - the rest wasn't so hot) and a host of other games and series that would last forever if I listed 'em all. In fact, I'm forgetting series, too.

Outta curiousity, what sorta systems do you have? Got any recommendations for consoles/games I should have? Post your stuff and likes - I'm hoping I can hear of a few new series and games and stuff - and who knows? Even I could join the new generation!

A 360, a PS2, and a Wii. Had a DS Lite and a PSP for awhile. Funny thing is that my older systems never got sold, they just disappear somehow.

As for genres, I'll play most games, although while it makes me sound like some kind of xenophobe, I've noticed that I don't like playing a lot of Western-developed games. I guess I just don't like how Western gaming culture has evolved or something.

Not really the type to maintain old consoles. Tis what emulation is for. So you can put any console with reliable emulation on my list.

I have Windows/OSX, a PS2/PS1, and a Wii/Gamecube. Will probably get a DSi-XL when it comes out here. A number of games for 360 and PS3 also come out for Windows, and there are not enough good games to make a PSP worth it.

I also follow the indie game scene, so I get more gaming mileage out of my computer than many.
