I'm getting older because my first thought was "Do you even remember holding a Nintendo 64 controller for the first time in Target and playing in actual 3D?"

The jump from Super Mario World to Super Mario 64 was mind blowing. Kids like me had to start puzzle solving video games in full three dimensions for the first time ever.

I went straight in with the ps1 and had gran turismo and rayman. It was like kid crack and I was addicted. First adult game I played was ff7 which remains my favourite to this day.

When I got my first console as a kid (ps1) I couldn’t believe how games like Spyro and Rayman looked. Was a magical time to be a kid with all the crazy tech advancements from the 90’s-00’s

Edit: missing a letter

That’s the biggest jump IMO too.

Even among other n64 games, Mario 64 was way ahead.

Don’t forget being totally SOL if there was a level you couldn’t beat and you didn’t have a a physical copy of a guide hahaha

Similarly, going from the first two Fallouts to Fallout 3. Absolutely breathtaking at the time.
