I don't feel so bad now. Before I started the post I thought I was the oldest gamer here. Now I have proof positive for all the nay-sayers who think I am too old to still be gaming.

You're never too old. Back in the day, my grandma used to have a Gameboy that she played Tetris on all the time.

That reminds me of when I was a kid and had a sega genesis. My grandfather came over and saw altered beast. He would just say..."well johnny....now I have seen pretty much everything"

25...I played my dad's atari...loved that damn thing and he gave it to my grandparents (without asking- I would have begged him not to) and they sold it along with all of the games (pitfall, frogger, keystone kapers...sob) at a garage sale.

I still have my nintendo though.

19, I'll be 20 in a month.

Just turned 18.

I'm 50, and have 3 kids (late teens+)

Retrogamer: I think I missed where you gave your age. It's probably irrelevant, though - it's not the age but the attitude that counts.

I'm 29. I Play games with my kid, he's 12. I started him the right way, first game he ever played was Super Mario Bros. on the NES.

I've owned pong, Atari, Coleco Vision, Amiga 500, NES Gameboy, SuperNes, Genesis, Sega GameGear, PSOne, Gamecube, XBOX, I just got a GBM...and hopefully soon a Wii. Oh, and got a DS for my kid waiting under the tree.
