Two things:

First of all, while I sympathize with you not having the money to play video games, I don't think it's fair of you to resent(?) your friends that did get to play them as a kid. Everyone probably "missed out" on something as a kid, and i doubt they're purposefully excluding you.

Secondly, your friends might not have had that much money growing up, either. A large chunk of the gaming stuff I had as a kid was stuff I saved up for on my own or with my brother, with our $5-a-week allowance. that's just what we chose to spend our money on.

Yeah, this, exactly.

Exactly this! My husband bought all his games and systems by saving up his allowance instead of blowing it on candy and other small things. My parents were incredibly new age, so things like television and video/board games weren't allowed. However, I would NEVER say I resented having books instead for my childhood! I don't feel like I missed out at all; my husband introduced me to gaming when we were dating, and we played through the classics he had as a kid. I sucked at it, but it was still fun, and now I'm a bigger gamer than he is.
