I know classing consoles as “Retro” is a little lame, but I think it’s enough of a globally acknowledged category to be fitting.
I have been a gamer for years, and as such I learned on the retro consoles.
Master System
The Master System was my true love for years. Getting it for Christmas, it introduced me to some of the greatest games in existence: Alex Kidd in Miracle World, Sonic the Hedgehog, Operation Wolf. Without it’s influence, I probably wouldn’t be a gamer today. Damn you SEGA!
Studied Computing at the University of Abertay Dundee; earning a Certificate of Higher Education before leaving, having found the course to be too rudimentary.
Now enjoys programming and scripting for personal use, as well as web-design, and some hobby modelling.
Also a heavy console gamer, and often seen playing XBOX 360 and PS3 online.
