Day 11 – Gaming system of choice
My first impulse is to pick the GameCube as it is one of my favorite consoles. With Animal Crossing, The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker, Luigi’s Mansion, Paper Mario, and Pikman, the GameCube and I spent a LOT of time together.
Note the past tense. Sadly, the GameCube has gone they way of most consoles and been relegated to fond memories.
The PC on the other hand has stuck around. Well, it too has been upgraded and replaced, but since it is far more backwards compatible then all the consoles, I am considering it the platform that stands the test of time.
Plus my PC is quite special since my husband built it for me. He took me to Fry’s and we spent my entire birthday there shopping for parts. Best birthday ever. I would not mind spending every birthday at Fry’s.
I choose you PC! <3
Picture is of my desktop at home, the one my husband built. Sadly its not very visible since it is so tucked away, but its awesome, I promise. Also his is directly to the left of mine, so we can sit side by side while we geek out. <3

The versatility of the PC is hard to argue with. I started playing all of the old Sierra games, and still play a lot of old games using Dosbox. I played the original pokemon and paper mario on PC using emulators and these days the majority of my gaming is flash based.

I hadn’t thought about how eventually almost everything can be played on the PC. Good point. =D
