Cant get interested in new games systems. Bought an XBOX 360 the day it came out, and my daughter plays it, I played it once...

But, I get excited when I think about my old NES, the games were so fun, Fuck the graphics...

So I decided to buy an old school NES. Found a TOP LOADER game system, you dont need to blown into the game to make it work anymore!! Found a kat on craigslist and bought 20 games for $100 off him...

Remember these games?

I think it was ps3 that you could play old school NES games on.
A buddy had some old school shit on one of his newer systems.
I got all fucking high and thought I was back in 3rd grade!

I have played NES, SNES, & N64 at least every week for the last 20 years. I have around 250 games combined.

Also have Xbox 360, that's all I got :D

I have been scoping out pinball machines for a few months now and I really want to get one this summer, bring back the old memories.

You used to be able to download emulators online and the roms for them (the game files) and you could play any game you wanted on your computer. I used to have every single NES game ever created on my old PC 10 years ago.

I even bought a controller to plug into my computer and had the buttons programmed as they would be on the NES controller, just a different feel with different shaped controller.
I bet you can still find the emulators and roms online for free though.

*edit* I see the prvious emulator comment now. my bad. On the flip side I still have a SNES with about 25 games. Still have dreams about those games too.

I like old video games.

Games back then were just simple fun, they are too complicated and centered around violence these days.

For anyone interested in playing old games there is video game system called a YoBo FC Twin that plays both original NES and SNES games, it costs like 30 bucks and hooks up to your tv, they even have a model that will play NES, SNES and Genesis games.

BTW the zelda series was some of the best games ever made. I still have my N64, that was some revolutionary shit back in the day.

The wife and I used to play a lot of Pin Ball at the local bars.

I own a couple different Ataris, working top and front load nes, three snes, two n64, and a dreamcast. Plus over 50 games for each probably. I bought an Xbox for halo but never really played it. My love is for the older systems. Most these were mine except Ataris I inherited from my dad, can't bear to part with any of them,lol. I can beat super mario bro with all secrets opened in record time, actually wore my first copy of the game out.
@ hiding been looking at one of those systems since I saw one at a friends. Be nice to have something to play my games on but save the consoles.
