Definately a fun game. I have my card on my visor in the car. I used to play it frequently but then the arcade where it was located took it out Smart move taking out the game that made the most money there.

Yeah I liked the nes Double Dragon games, especially part 2. Gotta love the super knee attack that you could keep doing and knocking the enemy way across the screen. I you were'nt careful, you would hit your teammate

My favorite Castlevania game was the PS1 Symphony of the night. It had some nice 2D artistry in it. Anyone try the Most recent Castlevania lament of innocence for the PS2?

I need to dig out my original Nintendo.. you can get games for like $.50 now for it. In college we bougt an old NES, and like 100 games.. and were never bored again.. LOL

Actually if you own a ps1, you can get an nes emulator disk that contains something like 300 or so games for the nes. that would be a better route imo.

You can play these nintendo ROMS on your computer. Basically you have to download an "emulator". This is a program that lets you load game "ROMs". A rom is just a file that contains exactly what is burned onto the game cartridges, and looks like "excitebike.nes" for NES, "griffeybaseball.smc" for SNES....and so on and so forth. There are emulators for ALL systems, including Neo Geo, Turbo Grafix 16, Sega Genesis, Sega Master System (8 bit), N64 (need a really fast computer...1000mghz+), Atari 2600, Atari 7800, and various arcade emulators. I've tried them and they work. If you dont have a PC gamepad, you'll have to use your keyboard...but you can configure the controls in the options so thats not a problem. Like I said, I use my PS1 controller to play these games thru my USB port convertor I got on ebay for $7.99 plus shipping.

Basically you download and install the emulator, then you have to scour the net for ROM files. Download the ROM file, unzip the file into the "games" directory in the program folder, then run the program and it lets you navigate thru your subfolders to find the ROM files you want to load.

My recommendations for NES is a program called "JNES" and for SNES "ZSNES"

Right now I have 863 NES roms on my computer taking up 181mb. If anyone downloads an NES emulator and has any ROM requests, PM me with your email address and I'll send ya some.
I collect these games....so I pretty much have any game you've ever heard of...and many you've never heard of.

(Note that my hotmail account only allows 1.2kb total attachments, and each game ROM is from 60-256kb large)

I have 2 of those discs...one with NES games and one with Sega games. I downloaded the .ISO file from Kazaa lite and burned it to CDR. It kinda works, but the sound is choppy. The PSX's laser eye isnt exactly calibrated to read all CDR discs. Some discs dont read that well (light colors like green, yellow, etc.) Best would be to get the dark blue bottomed Verbatims or the CDRW blank discs with the protective black bottom.

Emulators are okay, but they are never the SAME.. as in PERFECT. You'll always get a few glitches, sound kinda funky, or even the feel of the game will be a bit off. Dont get me wrong, they are still enjoyable to play. I am just saying that an emulator is kind-of like the difference between Arcade vs Home video game system, its RARELY perfect.

Speaking of AWESOME games, its all about:
- Street Fighter 2 Turbo (SNES)
- Super Mario Kart
- Bionic Commando
- Contra
- Mike Tysons Punch Out
- Double Dragon (Arcade) Double Dragon II (SNES)
- Kung Fu (NES)
- Zelda (NES)
- Rygar (NES)
- Prince of Persia I and II (PC)
- Karateka (Classic PC game)
- Altered Beast (Genesis)
- Splatterhouse (Turbo Graphx16)
- Excite Bike (NES)
- DOOM (PC)
- Venture (Coleco)
- Donkey Kong (Coleco)

Newschool games suck. Old school for lyfe!

Stee Flo

Dang all those games mentioned takes me back to the days of 8-bit power, where the games were good based on gameplay rather than in awesome graphics. I like the old and the new school games though. Speaking of mario kart, Ive been playing MK Double Dash on Gamecube. Its gotta be the best one yet. Highly recommend it. Super fun!

Probably the most impossible game ever made....BTW i love MarioKart 64....

old_s13

damn new schoolers.. hehe

Mike Tyson is not hard to beat, just watch out for his wink/flinch and you'll be okay. It takes a lot of practice though.

The hardest game I ever tried to beat on NES was Double Dragon part 1, its just UNFAIR. That fucking machine gun guy is a fucking cheater. I ended up beating it recently after YEARS of playing it, wow.. what a lame ending. 10 years of work for "congrats, you are the winner" -- that was it. No fucking nice animation, no cool music, no banging the girl, NOTHING.

oh well, atleast I still have my sanity. I think the LONGEST game to beat was Rygar.. easily consumes a FULL day.

- Mike

ONYX S-13

I think thats the reason why i gave up on good ol' mike..It takes too long to get everything right..I mean if you mess up you get knocked out in one punch..So unfair, from i remember you can't even block his punches huh?...Oh and the machine gun guy is impossible to beat as well........Lol that has to be the crappiest ending I've heard of as well...I mean isn't the whole reason for the game is to save that girl? And in the long run you don't even get to get her..unappreciative B&@#H...

tsunami0ne

Play Mike Tyson again and I guarantee you can beat it. He's pretty easy when you're not 8 years old.

mbmbmb23

My vote for the hardest game is definately Bionic Commando for NES. Talk about bullsh*t.......no password...no savegames...it was just plain hard. On the other hand....Both Metal Gears were amazing...and just plain fun.

Speaking of old games....anyone recognize "007-373-5963"??
That damn number is BURNED into my brain for life.

Yeah emulators rock! They are like the MP3's of consoles. You are suppose to own the cartridge you have the ROM's for or else it has to be deleted within 24 hours and viewed for education reasons. Kind of sucks because you cannot get some of these games even if you wanted to.

You can play even play imported games that never came to the states too. Also hack in to the game to make the game say or look however you like.

mbmbmb23: Yup, like I posted, that Mike Tyson code is stuck on my head, too bad my college studies are not like that. I will definately have to hook up with you on your NES ROM collection. I want to view it for educational reasons...

Double Dragon I was great. Only the original arcade was two players, the NES was one player at a time where you had to wait until the other dies. Any of you remember the secret on the 2nd stage to max out your heart skills? Hehehe, a real classic.

Tecmo sports games were great, I loved the cinematic replay screens of whenever you do something! Man the original Turtles game was kinda sucked and was hard as a kid. It got kinda hard after the stage with the bombs you have to difuse.

Anyone remember Duck Hunt and blowing up your TV from shooting too much. I did! Or the POS stuff the NES had like that ROB robot that came with Gyromyte and the Power Glove both of which did not work too well like we had wanted.

Some of these old games can make you money. Like the Dragon Warrior Series for Nintendo. The first one will not but part 2,3,4 will sell on eBay for like $50+, even more if you have one mint and in the box!

tsunami0ne

I have heard this RPG eclipses FF7 in every way.

Sounds like you were addicted to video games. $50 for the Dragon Warrior games is no big deal, although it's weird since they released 1-4 on Gameboy color didn't they? I sold my copy of Radiant Silvergun for $180 and all my other Saturn games for either retail price($49+) or more.

DrAgNDriFteR23

Anyone remember playing MK or MKII for super NES or genesis? And did you ever use a pen anytime u did the "test ur might"? like you would hella rock that shit back and forth just to get the yellow bar to the red line?? hella old school shiet!!!

Mortal Kombat is NOT old-school. You want old-school? Play some PacMan or anything on an Atari or Coleco. Speaking of collectors items, I picked up a FULL Coleco vision system with 25 games, steering wheel/pedals, roller controller, and some other misc shit for 200 bucks last year -- talk about a steal!

I think the code you posted earlier was for Mike Tyson, not bad. BTW, if you want extra hearts in Double Dragon 1 (NES version) just keep punching the same person but dont kill them, that will build your heart level. Regardless, that game was crap and only the Arcade version was worth playing.

Double Dragon II on NES however, was god-sent. Beat up the bitches, beat up everyone.. do spin kicks, and that FUCKING knee which is just SO fun (and hard) to do. Bored? Beat the shit out of your friend. That game would last me days.

Personally, I think Rygar is MUCH harder than Bionic Commando. I mean, BC would take some skill.. but Rygar took ALL day.. maybe even a full weekend to beat! It was SO fucking rediculously long to beat.

Not sure if anyone ever beat Ikari Warriors, that game was DISGUSTINGLY monotonous and would make me sick because I would often think there is no ending. Unfortunately, there IS. I have to admit, I think that game is the most real war simulation ever. I started getting delerious just playing that game.. as if I was in Vietnam. Its a good thing I gave up on that game REAL quick.

ps: The HARDEST and more stupid game for NES was Friday the 13th. I loved what they would tell you when you would die, it would consist of something like this:

YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS ARE DEAD. GAME OVER.

How fucking nice, talk about uplifting. I dont know how games like that were allowed to be legal.

DRFT

if you got real skoll you dont need a pen never ehard of anyone using a pen before. didn't think it was that hard

i know it's the exact opposite of this old school discussion, but who's played the Need For Speed Underground? I heard from an unreliable source that it's sweet. Looking for something good to rent for PS2 to hold me over until my pre-ordered copy of GT4 shows up.

tsunami0ne: Yeah I was addicted, but when I went to college I did not have time to play a whole lot. Last game I was really in to was Phantasy Star Online. I will probably get back in to it when I graduate, or maybe not. And I know that other games/consoles were worth a lot on eBay too, I just gave a simple example of a Nintendo game.

old_s13: I think in DD1 if you punched the guy too many times, he would eventually die. My secret had to do with making a guy invisible and frozen. You would then pick up a bat and keep swinging infintely since the guy cannot die. I used the bat since it gave you the most points. I also remember DD2 with the Super Knee Blast (press A+B after a landing from a jump), but there was also an Uppercut (press punch when landing from a jump)that made the guy fly a little upward. I would do that whenever there were spikes on the ceiling. I also did the lives exchange with my partner where I would beat my partner up to gain a life.

Man the little gamer nerd in me is released.

Stee Flo

I feel all nastalgic now ha hearing about these games. Pacman is still just as fun now as it ever was. Used to have it for my atari. I think i have a demo of it on my cel(pulling out cel)

Speaking of codes I think I renember the code for Contra for nes; up, down, up, down, left, right, left, right, a,b,a, b, select, start. Goes something like that

Anyone ever do the "Blades of Steel" trick?? Where, after you score one goal...you can take one of your back guys and hide behind your goal with the puck. The other team will continually try and send one of their guys THROUGH the goalie to get to you...and the goalie would keep knocking down the guy. Pretty cheap....I won the championship that way on the hardest level.

Check this out......for that JNES 8 bit NES emulator I have, it has a function that you can plug in Game Genie codes (codes that are available online too). Let me tell you how much fun RC Pro AM 2 is when you get infinite continues and infinite cash.

Speaking of hacked roms for use on the emulator, I have found 2 hacked mario games so far. One was renamed "Fucko" and the graphics were altered so the mushrooms looked like penises and the fireballs he'd shoot looked like a pair of testices. I also found a hacked Mario 2 rom that all the characters look like Ku Klux Klan members and there are all kinds of hacked graphics that I will not mention on here (as Im not racist).

Anyone EVER able to land that damn plane on the carrier on Topgun for NES??

My vote for the MOST WORTHLESS and IMPOSSIBLE game has to be the original "Back to the Future" game for NES.

omfg that was one of my first NES games. that game pissed me off AND scared me at night with you running around and suddenly this giant purple hulk thats supposed to be jason comes out of nowhere and starts chucking shit at you. or when you're on the boat and he goes swimming past you like a torpedo LOL. or the first time i found his mom's bodyless head in the woods... i did eventually beat it. got really good at fighting him during the indoor sequences and picked off his life mostly with knives. just get good at reading his machete attack lol... there were actually alot of items and stuff in that game that i never ONCE came across. i only got the machete as a weapon once... :T

personally my favorite semi old school game = NINJA GAIDEN 1 and 2. the 3rd was ok. when i play that game, i get into a state of like zen mindlessness. i could whip thru both games with my eyes closed... yes i was obsessed. my second fav not-so-old school game was PANZER DRAGOON 1 and 2. so artsy and absorbing.
