But I like the floppy disk, and I've never used one.

I did, all of the first games I played came on floppy disks. We had big boxes with like 100 floppy disks that we would bring over to friends to let them play our games. With no internet and no mobile phone games, you can maybe imagine the feeling of having someone bring over tons of new games you never tried before. It was a really nice feeling that is a bit lost now since there are so many games everywhere.
