Just beat Adventure Island for NES. This is a glorious day. It's taken me about 15 years to beat this game. Here is a screenshot of the amazing ending you get to see. I didn't even know I was trying to rescue someone named Tina? What are your most elysian NES moments? |

The 4th part of level 8-3 is the hardest part of any video game I have ever played. |

Have you ever played the hack of that game called "Pussy City Pimps"? The thugs say "fuck!" and "shit!" ha.. there is some other stupid shit in there, like girls walking around without their pants on and such. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no. i haven't played that hack.. sounds neat though. the only hack of that game i've played is "Wilfred Brimley Battle." |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've played a version where instead of the RCR boys you're Wilferd Brimley |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Ah yes.. Wilfred Brimley Battle. Classic~ Anyone ever played ASCII Mario? |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
they've also got "porno island," an aventure island hack. |
||||||||
|

finally beating metroid was pretty dope. also, i was kinda stoked when i beat marble madness. |
||||||||

|
|
The original Mike Tyson version of punchout was awesome. None of that Mr.Dream crap! |
||||||||
|
|

|

yeah I beat metroid earlier this year for the first time myself. It was nice. |

Gaming was soooo much tougher back then. There's lots of games that I loved that I still haven't beaten, decades later. I recently beat Shadow of the Ninja for the first time, and that made me feel unstoppable. In fact, I beat a lot of ninja games after Ninja Gaiden for Xbox got me in the mood. I still can't beat Revenge of Shinobi, though. Diabolical. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ninja Gaiden 3 was VERY hard. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
I only beat the built-in alex kidd on master system once. That was a satisfying moment though, i can tell you. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I never finnished that game! but boy I did really enjoy playing it (at friends houses)... perhaps this calls for some EMULATION? heh sure does. although I do prefer hardware, I can't get my hands on that now. |

"Milon's Secret Castle" I am having troubles with it! Ofthen, when I do get hit I get like stuck and get hit over and over the same time. that's what gives me the GAME OVER. But I kinda like the game, it's funny I think. Yeah. I also <3<3<3 NES remember, Link also started out with <3 but he got more <3's as he proceeded into Hyrule. I <3<3<3<3<3<3<3^<3 NES |

That's a real shitty thing about Milon's Secret Castle, there is no "immunity period" after getting hit by an enemy, so there is the potential to get hit over and over again until you die. There is a secret that the shop owner tells you. Once you beat the Level 1 Boss (the brown jumping turd-man), you can continue if you get game over by holding Left and pressing Start. If it weren't for this, this game would be impossible (and is still very, very hard)... HORRIBLE ending. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what shopkeeper tells you that secret? I didn't know! (thanks). Yeah the game is hard, I had to get the guide before I understood how to find objects and hidden stuff (I only had the rom, not the original game (which btw, I think was never released in Sweden). I remember last summer you helped me with Goonies 2 when I had forgotten where the hammer was... I admire you. NES = NicES. |

After about 15 years of trying, finally beating Marble Madness on the NES. Within a few weeks I had managed to do it with 22 seconds left on the clock! I've got a NES emulator with all my favourite games on it on my GBA, as well as my real NES permanently set up at my parents' house. Super Mario Bros 2 (Japanese Version) is probably my favourite game for it currently. |

if you run pogoshell you can load the .nes files directly on the cart and bypass creating the rom with pocketnes (assuming that's what you're using) |

CONTAINS SMB2 SPOILERS: Super Mario Bros 2 is so crazy! It's so surreal. but I really enjoyed playing it as a kid. I lended a friend my SMB2 last year... haven't gotten it back yet. I guess it's time to get it back! but my NES is kinda broken, so it would more be because I want my beautiful box back. Anyway, yeah it's a good game. bUt very surreal (and it all takes place in Mario's dream, doesn't it?) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, it had the "it was all a dream" ending.. i really liked the ending with mario snoring and the cast of characters were scrolling through his dream bubble.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok so they're not in his 'dream bubble', but whatever |

Sadly, I can't get (or make) a .nes file of Super Mario 2 (Japanese Version), it's only as .fds (famicom disk file), which isn't (so far as I know) compatible with Pogoshell. I still haven't had a chance to look into it in detail though, but I'll have a nice lull in my work in a couple of weeks time, so I'll check it then. Key: Yes, I completed that one. I remember getting it one Christmas... I foolishly traded it for "keeps" for Super Off Road with a mate a few years later once I had completed SMB2 several times. However, the game I refered to in my other post is completely different- it looks more like SMB 1 and is incredibly hard. It only go a release outside japan as "The Lost Levels" on Super Mario Allstars on the Snes and as a hidden game on Super Mario DX on the GB. |
||||||||

|

aaahhh the real smb2. I have a .NES file of that somewhere. The Super Mario Brothers 2 game that had all the psychedelic enemys and stuff was originally a game released in Japan called Doki Doki Panic, which was apparently, hugely popular so they replaces the characters with mario luigi, toad and princess.. hence the largest departure from any of the other mario games (all different music, etc) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah yeah... the lost levels... I've almost finnished it (on the SNES, SMB all-stars)... I got to the last level. But yeah I'd like the lost levels myself! be sure to notify me if you get a hold of a .nes-file fof the game! |

Hook me up if you find it bro. These XLT mail accounts are made for stuff like this... |

These games have 'retro' appeal I guess......but damn they are shit compared with todays standards! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nah, I wouldn't call them shit at all. It depends on what one wants from a game. And the interaction in them is KICKASS. they are really fun to play, and fun games can never be 'shit'. but yeah they are nostalgia and retro. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

It's these "shit" old games that gave me my hardcore skills that allow me to pull off my amazing feats at Soul Calibur 2, Burnout 2, Super Monkey Ball, etc. :P |

its weird. there were sooooooooo many cool games for NES and soooooooooooo few good games on all these new platforms |
||||||||
|
|

i don't consider these games "Shit" by any means. in my opinion, they are classics, and i still love them. you don't see anyone calling classic films shit, because they are still enjoyable to certain audiences. and besides, many games for the NES back in the day were made for gamers to become good at them, rather than target specific groups with particular content or fancy graphics. i guess longtime gamers can appreciate older games much easier though. :) anyways, i have MANY fond memories of my NES - Zelda's end was always enjoyable to me, the music for Fester's Quest, the Sky Castle on Rygar and that amazing sinister music, Super Mario 3 fucking with head at the end making me think the princess was in another castle (i was seriously about to go into a rage when i first saw that), the joy of finding those tricks to beat all the opponents on Mike Tyson's Punch-Out - i can't possibly name them all. But the first game i beat (on my own) was Bionic Commando. The first game i beat overall was Contra, with a friend. Nothing like fighting INSIDE a final boss, shooting its heart to death. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ohhh I'm a longtime gamer, have no fear of that.......but I'm also someone that doesn't cling to the past. Yeah sure those games were great in there day, but they are very dated.......what is available now, is by far much more superior, and thats what I enjoy, good gameplay and great graphics. I still enjoy playing classics like Pacman, but as addictive as it might be, the graphics stink in comparison. And thats what I'm talking about - the comparison. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

I don't understand how you're reasoning. The experience is subjective. And there are a lot of older games that I'd MUCH rather play (because I enjoy playing them more) than newer games. I also do enjoy low-fi music and pixel-gfx a lot, and don't care much about games gfx (I only did that as a kid)... All I care about is how much I enjoy playing the games, and that's all that should matter. And that is timeless I tell you. If you require "good graphics" to enjoy a game, so be it, but that's not the case with me. |

WHEN YOU BEAT BAD DUDES FOR NES!!!!!! All you get after that near impossible game is a screen much like the adventure island one and it says "AWSOME JOB, LETS GO GET HAMBURGERS".... with you and the president... hes saying we should go get burgers.. goddamnit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Newer games lack gameplay for the most part. It's more like a movie, rather than a challenging game. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The most awesome ending is the end of Life Force. up up down down left right left right b a start! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah... classic games, like Punch Out has great gameplay! And you advance to thougher guys - that's story enough. Funny story aswell. (pic by Ophecks) |
