Hey! Isn't that Carl Winslow from Family Matters??? |

awwwwww! when you typed it, I remember! hah, I know I have finnished that game, but that was YEARS ago (over 10 years ago! fuck time flies! I am getting old! I need to spend my time more preciously!) yeah I remember that 'cheat'. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha! you're damn observant today! yeah I agree. They look a lot alike. Perhaps Urkel was suppose to be in the game, but then Nintendo replaced him with "Little Mac", cause Urkel does comedy and Nintendo wanted an actiongame with a more serious tone. |

Greatest moment was Mega Man 2. Those Mega Man games are fucking hard as hell. Now that I think about it, games are getting easier and easier as time goes on. If it weren't for games like Ninja Gaiden for the Xbox, I wouldn't have a challenge. |

''Are you a bad enough dude to rescue the president?'' Haha, I love that game. has a nice NES site, I'm sure a lot of you know about it, but maybe there's a few uninitiated. I've actually looked through it and read the articles multiple times, it's always funny and warm. I love his article in Electronic Gaming Monthly, he only reviews the awful piece of shit games. Does it with pizazz. |
||||||||

yeah thoose Mega Man games are hard... atleast on 'difficult' (Mega Man 2 is easy on 'easy')... We ofthen play Mega Man 2 (on easy, and finishing it when getting drunk) before going out. And Mega Man 2 has got AWESOME music. I even made a topic about it here on XLT once. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No shit!!! I LOVE the music from MegaMan2. It's funny that you should mention it. I haven't played it in over 12 years, but I can remember how the music goes note for note. (on just about every level) |

another elysian nes moment - beating bionic commando - for it was the first time i saw a swear in a video game. |

i'd like to join the chorus of people saying how wicked NES is... the number of classic nes games far outnumbers the number of great games on any of the new systems... definitely there are some fantastic games now... but they are few and far between... and yes, nes games were made waaay harder than most games after them... i'd have to say my favourite nes game of all time would be super dodgeball... it was made by the dudes who made river city ransom and world cup... international dodgeball... long before south park aped the idea... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
definitely - most of my favorite games of all time were on NES. :) |
||||||||
|
|

top NES games! (in no specific order) Legend of Zelda Super Mario Brother 3 <-- Bionic Commando Strider Mega Man 2 Castlevania 3 Contra River City Ransom Mother (Earthbound Zero) Metal Gear |

Megaman series had some of the best video game music ever |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Megaman 2 definitely had some memorable music fo' sho' IMO. Elysian moments for me in Punch-Out: Finally figuring out how to beat goddamn King Hippo Blocking Great Tiger's Mirage Punch for the first time (sooo satisfying) Coming face to face with Mike Tyson, and getting your ass HANDED to you. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh punch out... another classic... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Anyone remember Mr. Dream, the white Mike Tyson from "Dreamland," that they put in the game after Tyson had the whole rape conviction thing? Gimme Tyson anyday! |

god soda popinski is a fucking bastard! finding the burnable bush that lets you into level 8 on zelda was an amazing feeling... or was it level 7?.. i think level 7 was the fairy pond, but i'm not sure. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Is there ROM file for iCE HOCKEY ? If yes,please share me.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you are correct! level 8 was the bush, level 7 was the pond, opened with the recorder. level 1: dead tree level 2: dungeon in east woods level 3: dungeon in west (dead) woods level 4: use the raft level 5: "up, up, up the mountain ahead" level 6: the graveyard level 7: the fairy fountain w/ recorder level 8: burn bush in east woods level 9: bomb spectacle rock but in fucking second quest, damn those dungeons were a bitch and took forever to find! (so did the damn letter) level 1: same place level 2: go to where you got blue ring in first quest level 3: 2nd dungeon location in first quest, use recorder level 4: don't remember :S level 5: level 4 location originally level 6: use recorder in graveyard level 7: burn bush west of level 8 original location level 8: use ladder at river west of waterfall and bomb the wall level 9: bomb area west of spectacle rock |

i only have the cartridge... but i'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to find on one of them rom websites... they're still alive and well right? haven't really used roms in years, but it seemed like some of the sites were running into legal trouble a few years back... but yeah, i'm sure it's not too difficult to find... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

most rom sites don't stay up for long. however, you can host emulators without any trouble... |

fuck man, no new videogame creates the other-worldly feeling like the classic nes games. i know it's gotta be the age at which i first started playing, but still. they are so baddass! i got lost in classic metroid like a motherfucker. i remember running up my mountain on our gravel road after school to play that game. that was prolly the most excited i ever was to find out where a storry was gonna go next. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i hear that. i would spend countless hours just EXPLORING zelda, and seeing what i could find. hell, even if it was "pay me for the door repair charge" i didn't care, just because it was something i didn't see before. the reason games are not as great anymore is because too many companies either rely on a movie/cartoon/etc. license, graphical prowess, or specific audience-targeting tactics (sex appeal, graphic violence, etc.) or riding the coattails of other titles in order to succeed. the gaming world is much more commercialized now. people are more concerned about profit than innovation - then again, there is not nearly as much room to innovate these days. |

this thread makes me happy... i feel that i need to let you people know this, even though you probably don't really care... |

i miss my childhood! *sniffles on oddioblender's shoulder* |

you would'nt believe how happy i was when i opened the box to zelda 2 and saw that the cartridge was golden. i think i prolly shit my trasformer tighty whiteys. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's why i write video-game stlye music - it brings back fond memories for me. :) fuck man, MOTHER BRAIN in Metroid was one of the most satisfying bosses in an NES game. First off, you had to plow through metroids a-plenty just to get to that room, (and if a Metroid latched to you, you were FUCKED) and once you got there, there was shit being fired at you from everywhere, you had to blast through five barriers (that regenerated if you took to long) to get to the brain at last so you could damage her, and after you finally get her good and dead, it's time to run like hell, cause "TIME BOMB SET! GET OUT FAST!" I love NES. :) |

Yep. I'm a big nostalgia freak, and since so much of my childhood revolved around video games, 8 and 16 bit (still does), just playing them makes me feel great. However, that said, I think video games are better than ever now. If I had a choice between Ninja Gaiden for Xbox or Ninja Gaiden for NES at 6 years old, I'd play the new one more. It's a no brainer for me. They're amazing now. If I was 6, running around Tairon or the Hayabusa Ninja Village, my head would burst. But that isn't taking anything away from the classics, they've got a charm that the new ones admittedly don't. Super Mario Brothers 3 destroys Mario Sunshine. I still firmly believe the day I got that yellow box with Racoon Mario on the front was the most amazing day ever. I couldn't believe there was a 2nd world after I beat Grassland. And a 3rd, and a 4th... it's still fun, they all are. 13 year olds now probably don't see what's so great about the first Castlevania... they probably can't get past the 4th level. I know I can barely do it myself. Gaming was different back then, not necessarily better, not really worse. Their Wind Waker will be our Link to the Past. They'll feel the same way about Viewtiful Joe or Ratchet and Clank that we do about Mega Man 2 and Little Nemo. So I don't like to put down today's games and just reminisce about the ''good old days'', every generation will get something great out of their games, every successive console generation has enough truly great groundbreaking stuff. Younger kids now will have their own sappy memories about this generation of games. I wonder what kind of feeling I'll get when I play something like Halo or Splinter Cell or (God willing!) Perfect Dark Zero in 15 years. I know Mario 64 and Goldeneye already give me the warm and fuzzy feelings, and they're all of 7 years old. But then again, that IS one third of my entire life. Wow. One day, we'll all die... like the World War 2 veterans... someday there won't be anyone left from the NES years. |

And I know it's not NES, but has anyone else played Traysia for the Genesis? Super underrated hybrid RPG that I had no idea existed until I stumbled on it in my ROMs folder. I think the Town Theme at the start of the game is right up there with Koji Kondo's Pinna Park Amusement as the best thing I've ever heard. |

i definitely agree with you on all of that... ... but seriously... have you played turbo grafx?! that was like one of the first 16 bit systems! and it plays mostly nintendo like games, only with more processing power.. honestly Bonk's adventure and Bonk's return should be as well known as the original mario games! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i totally agree. i just think there are far fewer games that will be remembered as "classics" these days than there were in the NES days. NES was the golden age of gaming. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Yep, I play around 1/3 of my nes carts reasonably regularly (about 10 games) and have done for the past 15 years or so. Compared to say, the Snes, where I play only two or three games on and my DC (where I have about 120 games) where I play about 5. The Nes definately has the highest proportion of classics and is the console I've probably racked most hours on. |

Ha ha, I remember when that came out. The kid next door and his brothers (who were always around) disappeared for a week. I didn't see them at all. I called for them and it turned out they'd been holed up playing that. When they brought it over and I had a go I was amazed. Just the sheer size of the game and the depth of play. |
