The NES. Man. I remember when I got mine. I had an Atari 2600 at the time too, so I was one lucky boy. I even got the set that included Robbie The Robot and the games Gyromite and Duck Hunt (Gun also came with the system). The memories. How many times did you guys blow into a cartridge to get it to work? Man had to have been at least a thousand or so...probably more.
I will list some games I played on the NES that were my favorite.
Super Mario Bros. Contra Excitebike Ghosts N' Goblins Nintendo Baseball RC Pro AM Double Dribble Duck Hunt Super Mario 2 & 3 Legend of Zelda Track N' Field I am sure I will think of more. |

sigh - kids...
I remember when all we had was PONG! And we were happy with it too... We didn't need no stinkin' "3d" or "1st person perspective," or silly joysticks... gimme a game console and two pong paddles, I'm good to go! LOL! I have Atari to thank for my current vocation - it was my first nerd toy - I got the 2600, and promptly took it apart... Then I got the Atari 400 - wrote several sinusoidal analyzers with it... then I upgraded to the Atari 800 and built an audio signal analyzer - then I totally geeked out and got the 1200, with 64K of ram! what more could I need! AND, I had the cassette tape backup - and wrote my own art program where you could actually SAVE your drawings to tape, man! We didn't need no stinkin' 1MB of ram! what are you gonna do with all that anyway? huh? (I hope everyone can see the sarcasm here).. NES - peh... can't even write your own games! (smirk) actually, Nintendo with the WII was BRILLIANT... console manufacturers have gotten so caught up in the graphics engines, processors, etc... they've forgotten about the interaction... WIi doesn't have anywhere NEAR the graphics capabilities of the PS3, but, heck, they don't even try to claim anything like that - they marketed on the interaction and the family aspects... and made a big hit... good for them!
