My Genesis has certainly brought me more joy than my smartphone, and that's including the fact that I can emulate Genesis games on my phone.

It was just... A simpler, happier time being a kid.

I think that’s called nostalgia

(But yeah, it makes sense you have more fun with a gaming console than with an everyday device)

I mean, phone calls and texts are a strong negative. Lol

You guys enjoyed being kids? Whack

Well, technically the Genesis was a gift from a drug addict boyfriend of my mom's because of how uncool I was about her divorce. So... No?

But that's why video games rule.
