Jinks #2 Posted July 6, 2012 Ok is there gonna be a 7800 one as well cause theres already a 5200 one and now a 2600 one? I think brotherhoods are for failed systems. if your not into 2600 stuff your not into classic gaming. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OldSchoolRetroGamer #4 Posted July 6, 2012 if your not into 2600 stuff your not into classic gaming. Uh huh yeah whatever. I am into 2600 stuff but it certainly is by no means a must to qualify being into classic games, different people had different classic gaming experiences growing up.

ntavio #5 Posted July 7, 2012 How about just an Atari brotherhood? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jinks #6 Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) Sorry to reply to and derail the 2600 hurrah thread. Its not a bad thing. but its kinda like what i mean when i say 2600 is everything is that this is atari age forum. without the 2600 there would have been atari nothing. anyone reading anything on any atari age forum should know all about the 2600 or know of its existance. to me the 2600 brotherhood is saying yeah i like classic games. and classic to me is 25-30 years old min. nes and the like are modern as they were these blow your mind graphics etc. maybe im freaking old. hell this guy at work 66 years old said he used to play atari 2600 i thought that was strange. but i guess he would been in his 30s. I guess rock on " brotherhoods" if you will.. Just thought the other ataris etc5200 needed them to be different or say look wees different.. but callin a 26 bro hood is like saying hey yeah we all breath oxygen.. lets get matching underwear. This is my opinion. not intended to insult anyone. Edited July 7, 2012 by Jinks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BassGuitari #8 Posted July 8, 2012 Not to ruffle any feathers here, but these brotherhoods seem a little silly to me. They're classic gaming fan clubs on forums already dedicated to classic gaming...the fandom is implied just by being here and by the forums you frequent. I'm probably taking the whole concept way too seriously (or maybe you guys are, if you feel the need to form brotherhoods ), but I never joined any of the brotherhoods -I think the Intellivision one was the first- just out of principle. They just seem redundant to me. (Now, if someone wants to start a Studio II or Channel F brotherhood, I could get on board with that. ) But hey, who am I to judge? If it makes you happy and it's fun for you, then go crazy, brother! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
