I don't even remember if I have that one. I should though. It'll probably end up either being Renegade or Bad Dudes. Whichever cartridge works with the least amount of elbow grease, err, blowing into the cartridge rather.

Like Double Dragon, but you could pick up your enemies and use them as javelins or baseball bats. Man makes me want to play that game again.

really, though, if you're an NES enthusiast, you need to try and find a copy of that game. mine died years ago, and i haven't found another one yet.

I wouldn't say I'm an enthusiast. I'm just someone that got an NES in 1986 when I was just a child and hung on to it ever since. I keep it hooked up to my 52" at all times but I only play it every now and then.

i've noticed the NES talk lately and found a dual NES/SNES unit for $50, bought it with Dragon Warrior. 14 years old, here I come. I hope the unit doesn't suck.

i just hope the battery is still working in that dragon warrior cart, cause i dont think you're gonna beat it in one sitting :)

if not, i'm pretty sure the batteries can be replaced with the application of a little elbow grease.

Very briefly hung out with a friend who i hadn't seen in a few months and drank "drinking chocolate" (which basically seems to be a melted chocolate bar in a cup). Yum.

Dude, slow down. That's 100 MPH more than you have to go if you want to go back in time. Now you're never going to know what it's like to have your teenager mom want your nuts.

BB is super easy to beat, I've done it probably 20 times. One night I played it twice all the way through with a friend.
Toobin' is so badass, I had a copy but someone stole it during a party (fuckers ripped off at least 30 games).
I have that version of Tetris.
What else you got? What games do you HATE? Take this shit to PMs if you want, we can nerd out.
We should just start a thread or some shit
