Well, I only got into Kirby games at that point. I've played video games before then, though.

Ahh, now I remember. I was 13 when I got my very first handheld for Christmas. A red Gameboy SP. DS's weren't invented yet, or at least I don't think so. Maybe they were just too expensive at the time or something...up until then, all I ever played was computer games.

Oh wow, I feel like a dumbass. My bad. ^^;

I think I might've been a little younger when I got my first handheld, but around the same age group. Yeah, it's likely that they were too expensive at the time. All depends on when you were born, which I'm not going to ask because this conversation doesn't really require that information.

I'm a 90's kid, man. I got my first desktop computer for my 5th birthday, back when computers were just becoming a household necessity.

Ah, I'm (technically) a millenium kid, even though I was born in 98. I was practically raised with a computer as well, not that my parents used the computer to bring me up or anything. You know what I mean. XD

Well, nowadays, that doesn't sound so strange. Hell, babies are given toy cell phones before they can even talk!

Hahaha, that is so true! The old stuffed animals will always be a classic with little kids though. Technology is really changing the way we think about things.
