My first games
console
When I was about seven or eight the most popular consoles
were the Sega Mega drive and Nintendo. We
had the Nintendo and one of my cousins had the Sega mega drive. I loved both
especially the cartoons that came with them but I loved using the cheats to get
to levels I was no where near ready for. I also liked playing football games
and other games on the consoles. .Even when I was that young I found that it was always something that I
could really concentrate on.
The main selling character for the Sega mega drive was Sonic the Hedgehog with his friend
tales and manic tries to save their mother. There have been many different
cartoons based around Sonic the Hedgehog and Sega always had
Sega theme tune as a logo at the start.
Nintendo were selling an Italian plumber Mario and Luigi who were trying to fix
peoples pipes. I also played Donkey Kong and others.
Sega and Nintendo’s games were an awkward shape and very
big. Also the console was big.
Now I play with games like the Nintendo Wee and it makes you
think how far games have come. As well as that there are things like the Game
Boy Advanced which makes thing a lot easier as you can play games in a car. Now when I travel on long journeys like holidays I make sure to have my Gameboy Advanced. But as they are so small you can loose them very easily
