Dont blame your failures/unhappiness on video games. weirdos

Do NOT buy Fable 3 at full price again after the first disc broke

>dont spend any of your allowances on Riot Points/ Blizzard cards/ Steam cards
>the economy is going to go to shit and your going to need that 3k$

Buy a Cred Forums pass the day they came out so I could be the ultimate special snowflake elitist.

Keep copies of your vidya screenshots, don't delete them.

Get into programming, it's easier than you think

This is what my older brother does. Sometimes he blames his parents or his upbringing for being an asshole. Excuses excuses.

Take hormones, get a web cam and look up one of those new streaming sites.

Don't buy any games your friends talk about, they're boring to us and we don't like them at all.
Stop being an edgy autist in school, literally nobody was impressed with whatever act you were doing.

quit looking at hentai, this ruins us because we're faggots.

Don't invade Russia.

Kill the commies in Yugoslavia and restore the rightful government, and make them your allies.

Best End.

the winning numbers are 3, 6, 28, 29, 40, 44. use them on your 18th birthday. buy out casey's arcade before it closes for good. and for fucks sake keep all your video game cases and buy a cool shelf to put them on, holy shit.

>implying my younger self would listen
Fuck that guy, he's the asshole that got me in this mess

>not doing your homework the class before

Don't play video games.

>Don't cry in frustration while playing Super Mario Sunshine, just so you can know whether or not you actually liked the game when you're older.
>Buy a Playstation while it's in its heyday and start getting secretly playing rated M games so that it becomes not that big of a deal with the parents later.
>Don't play Dead Rising on the weekend Dead Rising 2 comes out if you value your Xbox 360.

Go back an hour or so from now and watch Poultrygeist instead of arguing on Cred Forums, you'll enjoy yourself more.

I had to learn this song for choir back in high school. It's weird to see people posting the lyrics online (usually wrong)

google darksydephil

Dont play WoW

>gained autism
>turned pale
>turned greasy
>grew long hair
>quit sports
>didnt play other vidya
>learned memes

If only it wasn't such a grind in vanilla I never would have wasted all that time. Luckily it was only in high school which wasn't important. I quit my senior year and never played it until draenor came out

>doing choir

invest all your savings in bitcoins in 2011

>College is a meme
>"what's a meme?"

Don't waste 4 years of your life with League of Legends.

Cred Forums Pass user since October 2014.

>Do NOT sign that sallie mae paperwork for a meme degree!!

How about, "don't buy a Cred Forums pass"

Fucking faggot.

Fuck probably would mention to myself never even touch league when a random stranger tells you about it the game is shit and will always make you a worst sore loser.

>I know Melee isn't a fighting game but you gotta git gud at it while you can so you can destroy everyone and teach them the light that are, god help me, """"""traditional"""""" figting games AKA real fighting games

>Get a stick asap

>Don't buy Other M
>Hold off on the 3DS
>Don't buy the WiiU
>When you go to that garage sale with Megaman 2, 3, 4 and Super Contra skip out o Super C and get MM2 (My mom only let me pick 3, I already owned a shit cart of MM2 so I went with the rest. Later I went to my local garage sale store and saw MM2 in box, the ho didn't have the boxes out during the sale so I didn't see them. I had no money to buy MM2 then.)

Don't buy games on sale that look vaguely interesting - you'll have to live with the guilt of never playing them.

Ever thought about supporting the website you love to shitpost on? Fucking freeloader.

>supporting kike bullshit

Yeah, nah.

>"loving" Cred Forums

I haven't "loved" Cred Forums since 2005.

I reiterate:

Fucking faggot.

You know that shit that's on all of your report cards?

Fucking apply yourself you lazy nigger. You don't need to be valedictorian, but goddamn use some effort instead of shitposting on webcomic forums about power levels.

Also fuck worrying about disappointing mom by taking after dad; join a military branch, specifically the navy because that shit in the middle east isn't going anywhere for awhile, and by the time the dust settles you'll be able to leave with benefits before round 2 goat fucker boogaloo starts up again. If you don't, you'll be stuck in this podunk fucking town forever.

Also that fetish you picked up in jr. high? No, it's not going away. Sorry about that. Never should have bought that box of Sonic the Hedgehog comics from that garage sale.

>Capitalism is somehow "not" kike bullshit

Pffftt... HAHAHAHAHAHA

You had to join at least 2 music clubs each year. I did choir and guitar ensemble cause they were the easiest and I sure as shit didn't want to join strings or chamber music. I was one of the tallest kids in all 3 years of hs, so I'd be forced to play big unwieldy instruments and I'd never get to touch a violin or a flute. Fucking sucked

learn japanese and never give up

The Soviet Union killed a LOT of jews, user.

Dragon's Dogma wasn't worth the 8 hours you'd end up blowing on it, I know you'll be sad because it looked like it would have been cool. Put that time into Soul Calibur, fuzzy penis horse man needs training.

Have more fun at friend's houses, that's the kind of stuff you'll cherish down the line

Now where did I say anything about capitalism? I just don't want communism anywhere near me.

That was only later.

Just be yourself :)

>stop playing video games, RIGHT NOW, and go learn how to play soccer and/or basketball and have a happy school life

Do those grades, git that college, never ever get loans

If your friends hate the things you like (to play) then ditch them and find new ones.

Don't take games so seriously, losing or winning isn't a big deal and it's fine to throw games to someone who really needs to win.

t. normie

As much as I want to say that I want to tell young me to buy up rare valuable games so that you can hold onto them in mint condition to resell today for insanely high prices, I think they mentality would screw me up completely.

I was 8 in 1995, back then I was a big fan of Sonic games. If you convinced 8 year old-me to give up Sonic to spend all of my money on $70 copies of Earthbound so that I can sell them for over $1000 each when I became an adult, it would've probably made me into a really unhappy kid.

Sportsfags are the worst. They give up all free time to practice some shitty ball game that they'll never be able to compete in big league.
At least vidya isn't a commitment.

Play more musical instruments and less video games

Don't throw those rocks behind you when you were bored your crush was sitting behind you and you didn't even notice.

You hurt her and was never able to talk to her again.

Make sure Seth McFaralane doesn't miss his flight

If you play sports throughout highschool you acquire:

>fit body
>social skills
>social praise
>ego boost
>girlfriends and easy hookups
>an useful ability

Meanwhile if you play videogames throughout highschool you acquire:

>

I know it's possible to earn University scholarships in the US by playing sports, but it's not the case in my country and i'd still rather play sports than videogames.

lol

little internet, casual console games 1 or 2 hours a day

...

please dont post racist propaganda images on this video game board

but I'm doing that already

Stop playing video games so much it amounts to basically nothing and you only play them for an hour if that.

future guy here,

console gen 5 and above become totally worthless for collecting, with the exception of the most rare obscure artifacts. worst hit are sony ps1 and ps2 - they totally lose all value.

screencap this

I feel sorry for your mother.

Save money to build a PC for gaming, when you here announcements of Wii U, Xbone, and PS4.

This. It ruined my life.

...

normal, sane human being:
>hey man baggy pants and jnco jeans don't last. ha ha sorry dude

brain-broken Cred Forums-dweller:
>OKAY THE FOLLOWING ITEMS ARE 'LIMITED RELEASE', OBTAIN THESE AND STORE IN MINT UNOPENED CONDITION FOR THE FOLLOWING DECADE. also all video games are terrible and i hate playing them. like don't even bother with xtrash360 it's shit

start taking estrogen and play f zero its awesome

nah man, Cred Forums would be all like
start dressing up in girls clothes, its not gay at all ;^)

Get a PSTriple, you ain't gonna get no honeys with the Wii

Apologize to those two guys for the way you treated them in school. Enjoy WarCraft III while you still can.

play more games normies play so you can actually develop a social life that doesn't evolve around multiple people talking to you at the same time.

>go back in time
>molest younger self
>get away with it
...i think i've invented a new genre of smutfic

Don't buy that PS4, it'll kill dad.

you forgot one
>learn proper grammar

Avoid FF11, WoW and MMOs in general.

Get a DSi sooner rather than later.

Don't date Whitney.

>avoid FFXI

Same, game ate my life for 6 years

story time, how did a PS4 kill your dad?

Don't EVER visit this place

Start taking female hormones and male hormone blockers at a young age, and then make a large amount of money from playing games for other people.

>Dad and I used to game all the time when I was a kid
>Really loved Ratchet and Clank
>recently had gotten laid off from his job
>depressed beyond belief
>decide have enough money, bite the bullet and buy a PS4 and the new Ratchet and Clank game
>have a great three days with it, he's happy again
>go to work as he's getting ready to beat the game on Challenge Mode
>go through shitty shift, thinking it'll be worth seeing him grinning at me at the door and bragging about how he beat the game on Challenge Mode 100% in such short amount of time since we like to bant between ourselves
>get home
>way too quiet
>go to my room to check on him
>dead with spit rolling down his mouth
>find out the PS4 isn't making noise because it froze from what looked like a clusterfuck of colors and effects

That was the first time we ever knew he had epilepsy. Since he died in my room, I now sleep in the den on the couch.

This was only 4 days ago

That sucks, user. Sorry about that

Don't fucking sell any of your video games you're not even gonna get enough for the new console you want.

I would also tell him to use the handle that I use now for video games so I don't ever have the generic cringey name I had before.

Fuck, I'm sorry to hear that

lmao

>Sonygger has no father

At last it all makes sense

You are an ass, but deffo, underrated post

F

Sorry about your dad user

Don't buy X because you're never going to play it but by the remake/definitive edition later as well anyway

Don't sell your games for drugs. It will ruin you. Also, try in school.. show them what you can do; don't be afraid.

Don't spend that much time on videogames, get some books. Fucking keep learning how computers work. Don't get mad at people online for being asshats on multiplayer games.

And no, Nintendo ain't that amazing, stop it

user. I'm sorry man. Stay strong.

Don´t open it.
