LOL I don't remember. I do remember that strange looking creature from Brazil. He was fun to play. I also remember playing with Atari, calico vision, Intellivision, and had a commodore 64. I remember making a game on a 5.25" disk. Skating game and avoid the cracks that continually appear. :mrgreen:

And to think... the consoles we will see for the next 5+ years are still going to operate under the same principle of loading shit off discs every time. :\

Yea. So why not have a system like bring your flash drive and when you purchase a game it gets loaded to the drive. Go home and load it on the system.

LOL your probably right, until the disk breaks and/or scratches. I can remember when CD's were made tougher then the disk's are now.

Flash drive idea would work but ultimately isn't different from discs in concept. Why even need to go to a store or receive from a delivery person (or drone) at all? I was meaning that we could be using the internet more.

App stores already exist on Windows, OSX, Xbox, Playstation, Wii, etc. but they don't carry all apps/games. The only market segment where the system I want is already in place is on mobile devices like smartphones.
