Real gamers
I have Steam and the only consoles I've ever owned were Nintendo handhelds newer than the GBA but older than the DSi.
What about old CD/DVD-based games from before steam existed?
-
@aliceif those are pretty neatly stuffed into the shelf next to my computer, coated in a thick layer of dust.

Real gamers have that shrink-wrapped copy of whatever game they preordered but hadn't had a chance to play yet on lying on some table, a bunch of games just lying around near their primary console, some loose portable carts on their nightstand and their main games shelf is maybe ordered by console, if even.
Well, the ones I have and are not on Steam are in a directory named
ISO
... But, in my defence, filenames aren't consistent!

Let's see:
- Shrink-wrapped copy of Skyward Sword just lying around, check.
- Games lying around near my primary console...hmm...well, I have piles near the PC and the TV, so that should work. Check.
- Portable carts on the nightstand? I've got them scattered around other places.... My phone charges on the nightstand at night, though. Close enough.
- Main games shelf is still ordered by console since nobody's touched it in a while. Check!
I'm not sure what this proves as most of my video gaming the last few years has been on Windows machines, but yay! Real Gamer! Or at least really close! :/

Poland thanks you.

@Groaner real gamers don't call themselves 'real gamers'. or 'gamers' :​P

old CD/DVD-based games are from before @ben_lubar existed.

I'm 22 and I'll be a teenager for the next 50 years apparently.

@dkf
I'm a Floating Gamer thank you very much.

I've had a PS4 for a year and a half now and the disc drive has never been used. I suppose I should check that it actually works before the guarantee runs out.
Come to think of it, I believe the only physical game I bought for the PS3 was the Kingdom Hearts remake, which for some reason was never available to download.

@dkf I prefer to keep my gamers rational tyvm

That sounds complex…

@dkf certainly not natural, but real

@candlejack1 imagine I'm making a really funny pun on Quaternion here

@Luhmann I'm the only real gamer here. I only play on Blum–Shub–Smale machines.

@aliceif I thought link was girl for about six months when I first started playing Zelda games back in the dawn of time.
Of course he's not! Link is the prince that Zelda, the main character, has to rescue, right?

@Tsaukpaetra So, like any version of windows since 8, with EFI bios and an ssd?
Even my home desktop loaded in <10s when it was still running WIndows 7. Then again, it was built with UEFI and an SSD, so …
