I feel old consider the new resurgence in people wanting a PS2. you can’t find them anywhere anymore. all the retro game stores are selling out of them. Even the PSP is hard to come by.
I remember waiting in line at the midnight launch of the PS2. I also remember waiting in line at the midnight launch of the first Xbox and having to convince my friend to also pick up Halo because I heard good things about it. He just wanted to get Cel Damage and Fusion Frenzy.
I remember my mom getting me Halo 2 two months after the release date and how excited I was because I knew how hard it was to get. That was 2004. Halo 2 is drinking age now.
I remember getting a Wii after release but during one of the console drops. We were second in a line of about 10. I think they had like 4 available.

It’s wild living through the time that these systems are brand new and pricey, then become practically worthless, and then become scarce and unaffordable forever.

I’ll never forgive myself for getting rid of my virtual boy after seeing slo-mo guys recent video and how much he paid for his.
