-Rad Racer
-Punchout
-Captain Skyhawk

Nice, I still play double dragon I and II, the third one is unplayable and contra is still awesome after all these years.

de-de-de-di-di-didi-de-de-de-dede-didi.

 

[Techmonkey]

holy crap! I've had a NES for like my entire life, no joke.

the best game ever was just like a freebie from macdonalds or something. but it was epic win

wow how sad is it that like my happiest ever memories were playing that machine?

 

[CapnSev]

At least Battletoads had one good level. TMNT didn't even have this due to its crushing suckyness.

That either has to be the one on the speeder-things, or the one where you lower yourself down the hole and beat up all the crows.

The games I was hooked on as a wee lad:

Zelda
Punchout
Excitebike
Double Dragon
Battletoads
Mega Man
Top Gear
Castlevania II

-Contra (Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, Start)

+10000000000000

That + a friend to play with the red dude, one gets the ''S'' the other get the laser,

hell yeah.

Man i've got to find one

Dont forget River City Ransom.

I have an emulator for just about every cartridge using console.

Fun to play the old games with the draw method at its highest, and the resolution maxed.

I just retrieved my NES and SNES from storage. Unfortunately, I don't have a tv at my new apartment yet. Fortunately, I also found my Gameboy. Forget the DS, I've been playing Yoshi, Shanghai, and Dr. Mario incessently on my clunky, gray, lima bean green-screened, battery-munching portable!

 

[Lorenzini]

Battletoads.

NES was okay, but I grew up with a SNES and all of my favorite games are on it.

My friends and I still have a tradition where we have to beat that game at least once a year. The last time we did it was on Thanksgiving, so it'll be time again soon.

Agrees.

TMNT was absolute crap. Pretty much a consensus on that one. My contribution to this thread:

Super Mario Bros. 3

Chip n' Dale's Rescue Rangers

 

[RobTheSkanker]

I really want my NES back.

I miss paperboy, blades of steel, mario bros 3, and battletoads.

No. They are not.

They make me feel like an old man: "These damn kids and their excessive profanity! Back in my day we used to use word play and sardonic wit to make each other laugh; not just string together a bunch of potty mouth words."

And it's totally hypocritical too, I swear all the time, but I'm usually not using it in place of real humor.

And get off my lawn![/twenty-something-going-on-old-man rant]
