Greetings from a 15 year old collector!
Hello there everyone, my name is Jimmy. I've heard of NintendoAge through Pat the NES Punk and never really wanted to look at it until just recently. It seems you all have a great community and I'd like to join to hang out with like minded people. Enough of my sucking up, here's a bit about me in general. I am 15 years old and have collected for games since I was around 11-12. I have an NES, SNES, Atari 2600, Sega Genesis, Nintendo 64, Nintendo Gamecube, Sega Dreamcast, Nintendo Wii, and Nintendo 3DS. My most expansive library is Atari 2600 with 15 games with 3DS in second with 12 and NES in third with 11. Now I know I definitely do not have a huge collection but that is mainly due to me not having sufficient funds to just buy lots of games, especially in the retro market nowadays. That doesn't mean the collection won't expand but as of yet this is where I am. I have a youtube channel (literally my username on here) where I do a lot of random stuff but I do have a gaming show where I talk about my retro games, most being Nintendo of course. So thanks for letting me join NintendoAge, I'm not sure I will be extremely active but I will at least try to come on every once in a while.

Well, I see kids that only play mobile games like that dumb 8-ball game integrated into iMessage. And the ones who do play games are 80% CoD players and Xbox and Playstation fans. Surprisingly at my school there is a bit of a Nintendo 3DS following which I think is really cool!
Welcome! I'm happy to see more young guns getting into the vintage hobby.
Trust me, I am too
You heard about NA through Pat the NES Punk and joined? Crazy, I thought all he did was trash our site. Welcome to NA.
Never heard him trash NA, he actually said it was one of his favorite sites on a CUPodcast.
I think when he says "favorite", it's sarcasm. Welcome to the site
Fair point
We absolutely love Pat here, especially the mods and admins.
Welcome Jimmy.

This. I totally did not unsubscribe from him
Anyway, welcome to the site man! Nice to see some of the younger generation have some interest in retro games - I also started pretty young (at 8) with me now being 20 and having a "few" more games
So, what do you like about Nintendo and Atari games? I'm curious where someone your age is coming from on this.
Oh, I'm into many old things and video games just happens to be one of them. I love antique radios, vintage televisions, old rotary phones, etc. It's just something about having something from a time where I wasn't around just seems really cool to me. And Nintendo and Atari are really cool to me because not only is it old(er) but it has a great library of games!
Welcome to the site! Always glad to see other teens, hope I'll be seeing you around the site someone soon
Oh I'll try to post some stuff, but with my limited library as of yet it might not be too frequent.

Ok now I'm starting to think I need to improve my sarcasm detection skills...
