Classic Nes

[Spooke]

I recently took off the NES emulator from my GP32 cos I didn't really like any of the games... but reading this I might go and put these games on...

how about continuing it to 20?

If you dont like the games, why put them back on your GP32 when NES-games are in the news ?

 

[barnesy]

That's an huge number of games to not like!

Super Mario Bros., Donkey Kong and Excite Bike are the only games out of those I'd bother with now. I mean $20 for Pacman? Really?

 

[Spooke]

It's cos I had a sporadic list of games on my GP32.... so not the ones listed here...

what other ones are good then?

yup, they used to be cool though.

I liked Nintendo before they tried to remake everything for the GBA. I do think it's good though to get a younger generation interested in retro games.

i think those classic game reissues have been dominating the sales charts in japan.

get ready to see the same thing in America whn we get all the releases, "perhaps.."

Retro games are a huge fad. You know that dumb little AA-powered joystick you can buy for your TV with pac man/digdug/etc in it? They couldn't keep them stocked on the shelves last xmas.

i think it's great. people are actually enjoying COOL video games again, for a change!

Gargoyle's Quest 2 is a great one too. Damn they're really dumb to this to sell such things. If it was a compilation with 10 nes games for 20 $, it could be nice but here.... Still the worst is that there is surely some dumb ones that will buy some of these games and be satisfied.

 

[sensible GP32]

you know those re-issues in japan have been selling like hot cakes, think there were only like 12 pounds though.

river city ransom and backyard baseball are just great

Jesus Christ! Why would people pay so much money for a NES game?

By the way, How much is $20 in sterling?

yup I was playing river city ransom the other day, great game.

balloon fight , great game

 

[mr twit]

It's not really the game they are paying $20 for, it's more a kind of collection thing. They are styled like miniature nes cartridges and people who grew up with the nes like the idea of collecting them all, rather like paying extortionate prices for little collectable figurines, except you can play games with them.

[Crocomire]
