Description

This's a fantastic pic made by Seriously go and check her gallery is full of awesome and win.

Β 

This picture shows a group of proto-gamers back in the 8-bit era enjoying a multiplayer session. Due the technical limitations of the era all sessions were handled locally due to primitive internet connections, also most consoles were limited to 2 players (some historic artifacts suggest the possibility to increase the number up to 5 but few games displayed that option) notice the lack of headsets, wireless controls and Mountain Dew.

Β The elusive creature known as "gamer girl" is showed in this picture that also display an user looking into a magazine, those were used to know what to do in a game in a time before GameFAQs and tutorials. Also notice the complete lack of 1080p visuals, achievements, avatars and particle effects.

TMNT, but I love Contra more here. Speaking of limitations, even Princess Peach looks like Princess Toadstool as seen in the Super Show series.
