I guess I got myself spoiled a lot in the PlayStation 1 and Game Boy Pocket/Color/Advance era, as I find myself difficult to get to games originally for a system earlier than the SNES in their original forms.

Oh, well I may win this one considering the system I can tolerate is older than our own admins and probably older than 95% of all the VR members. I happen to have a working Atari 2600, and I have no problem playing the games on there, and I even enjoy it!

I can play older games no matter how far they go back. I really have no issue with them. There's maybe one or two I can't play because they haven't aged well. But those are mostly obscure games.

Seeing as I enjoy the NES and the Commodore 64, I really have no problem with really old games. In fact, I'm actually rather used to them. x3

I got an Atari 2600, a Magnavox Odyssey 500 and Commodore 64 so what do you think?

It's not really the age of the game that matters to me. It's what the developers did with what they had.

If arcade games count, then I'd probably change my answer to before the 80s. I'm sorry, just not a fan of the Atari. But yeah, mainly NES and up is awesomesauce(except for SEGA CD*shudder*).

I like games when the NES came out, im sort of a old school person as i grew up when the NES was popular.

I love all of my games and systems. The farthest back I can recall is a mix of the PlayStation and arcade games. On my PlayStation I would frequently play arcade classics like Ms. Pac-Man, Dig Dug, Pole Position, and Phozon. It took a while but I also went to a real arcade and got to experience those, even though I sacrificed plenty quarters/tokens since I was and still am not very good at them
Although I've never owned one, I can tolerate anything from NES onward. Sorry, Atari.

As Cat has already mentioned, it's not about the console, it's about what the developers did with their games. I could find a NES game to keep me entertained for hours just as I could find an Xbox 360 game to disgust me to the point where I stop playing it in 5 minutes.

Atari 2600 is where I draw the line.

I very much enjoy NES games. I haven't really tried anything older, even with my presumably working Atari 2600. I think stuff from SNES/GEN era are my favorites.
