Docsis Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 TI-994a was my 1st. I then got an Amiga 500 from a pawn shop. Both awesome computers for the time. Now my watch has more processing power than both of them combined. Ahhh.. those were the days. Typing code for hours from a TI99-4a magazine, saving it onto a cassette tape, just to play the game. And playing "Willy Beamish" on the Amiga was a blast! It came on 12 floppies, and you had to keep loading the next screen from one floppy to the other (no hard drive).

sharkfinsix Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Got a Vic 20 for Xmas, then used all my savings to buy a C64 when it came out. Raid on Bungling bay and Ultima IV got played the crap out of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seajaydubya Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I remember my hubby thinking that the Vic20 and the Com64 were "IT" back then. He got such a kick outta coding basic Frogger and Asteroid games and running them off of a tape drive. ooh! I couldn't get interested in gaming back then. Was too busy running scripts off of IBM XT/ATs for small business apps and drooling over the graphics capabilities of the Macintosh at work, back then. I gotta admit that the Vics and Coms were cute. I didn't really get into computer gaming until 1993 when X-wing came out for the 386/486 Win95 platform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
