  • My brother had internet access over 3G but he wouldn’t let me use it, but sometimes he gave me some new games to play. That’s how I got to play Minecraft and that’s how I learned programming with Game Maker. But yes, I also had a Wii and a DSi but I had just a handful of games, so I played Pokémon White all day and almost finished it three times


  • Most of my childhood was in the early 2010s but for me it was like I was living in the 90s because I was always at my grandparent’s. They had all sorts of retro tech I played with as a kid. I burned CDs, I listened to cassettes and I had no internet, ever. My first exposure to a PC was with a mid 80s PC clone running Windows 1.0. So it’s probably something like this









  • Yeah I hate it.

    It doesn’t have to be like this, I can literally fire up my iPhone 5C with iOS 10 (10 years out of date btw) and still connect to the App Store, Apple Music, use iCloud and see the online leaderboards in games that use Game Center.

    Oh, unrelated fun fact: apparently Rovio left the servers open for Angry Birds Epic. 13 years later you can still play even if it is unlisted everywhere
