EndZoneCrew Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 If anyone is in the age range of 24-38.....you remember the original NES......like all kids at that time...it was quite a breakthru from the old Atari system....was there a game that you remember being thoroughly addicted to or you still see yourself playing even today? -For me, it was definitely Baseball Stars and Tecmo Super Bowl......those game were sweeeeeet for the sole reason of keeping stats for your players! any other games?
Ramius Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Techmo Super Bowl and NES Hockey (2 vs 2 where you had the choice of the small fast skinny guy and the slow fat guy)
EndZoneCrew Posted April 24, 2008 Author Posted April 24, 2008 Techmo Super Bowl and NES Hockey (2 vs 2 where you had the choice of the small fast skinny guy and the slow fat guy) good call with that game...loved the fighting in that.......I was thinking as far as an action game....remember CONTRA? I still know the code for 30x lives by heart....15 years after I played it last....good times! Anyone else remember that code?
Hazed and Amuzed Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Techmo Super Bowl and NES Hockey (2 vs 2 where you had the choice of the small fast skinny guy and the slow fat guy) It was 4 on 4 and I used to see how many goals I could score in one game. 104 I think was my best. Mike Tyson's punchout Metroid Contra Tecmo Zelda (the first one) Blades of steel Metal Gear RBI Baseball Were all great.

Heh, my brother and I had to save up our own money (chores, no allowance), all $106 to buy our NES. Our dad said it was too expensive and we already had an Atari, so if we wanted it, get it ourselves. Geez, I think we were like 8 (me) and 10 (him) at the time. It was almost unbearable, all our friends had already had theirs for like a year before we got one. Best game? Dunno, that's tough. The Tecmo Bowl games were good. Double Dragon. Contra. Zelda. Castlevania...
Ramius Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Contra was good too. But my favorite fighting game was Double Dragon.

If so, that one rocked.

EZC-Boston Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Baseball Stars, play the Lovely Ladies to make more $$$
Fires Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 I think I wore out my thumbs on Catlevania... Still love the original Mario Brothers and Techmo Bowl.
Ramius Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 I know it wasnt until SNES, but we cant forget the greatest basketball game ever made, and probably a top-5 all time video game NBA JAM!!! BOOM-SHOCK-A-LACKA
kegtapr Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Anyone else remember that code? Of course. If only I could have remembered math formulas like I remembered that. I've linked to this site before, but for anyone who hasn't seen it. http://www.virtualnes.com/
shrader Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 It was 4 on 4 and I used to see how many goals I could score in one game. 104 I think was my best. And it was Ice Hockey, not NES Hockey. My brother and I had some epic battles in that game. It got downright crazy when you got to OT (or it may have been 2OT) when the goalies were automatically pulled. I'll agree with you on Zelda and Metal Gear too. I can still break out those games and have a hell of a lot of fun. Their music will still randomly pop into my head.

Fires Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Cool link Kegtapr.... I tried one of those emulator sites a while back and had some issues, but I'll definetely try this. Thanks.
