old video games

[chum1]

and LOL @ Saul for not using a pencil to mash the NES buttons to run faster

As a former Track & Field enthusiast, the pencil trick was the first thing that came to my mind.

[Saulbadguy]

Loved CT - got all of the endings, max'd out everyone stats (** not 99, lol), recently got it for the Nintendo DS.  One of my all time favorite rpg's.

StarFox for n64 was amazing.

BS.  Trash compared to the SNES version.

Mega Man 2 and Double Dragon 2 were great.

Loved fighting the dragon in Wiley's castle, where the game lagged and you had a little advantage because of that.

Super Play Action Football for the SNES

College season mode was the best, always played as ksu and you could pick your own schedule, i'd always play the top teams to get ranked fast, like Miami, Notre Dame, Nebraska, etc.  

I like how they had certain colleges they couldn't use their names for whatever reason so they made up a name for them. Found the list of colleges online:

Some good ones listed here already, but this one was a lot of fun.  Used to make our own teams and play with a bunch of friends.  Good times.

[kougar24]

One of my all time favorite rpg's. 

Agreed. Right up there (but still behind) Suikoden (PS1) for me.

[catdude33]

[steve dave]

Would build my own track with a huge line of speed boosts follwed by a bacon jump.

see, the thing is when you young bucks start mucking up my thread with NES crap, well, it kind of loses its original intent.  the name of the thread is old video games, not video games that aren't that old really.

Come on, they are old. 

Atari, gmafb.  Ok.  Pitfall for atari was awesome. Discuss.  You jump over gators and pits.

Well, discussion over.

[Thin Blue Line]

I used to have an atari. Is that old enough? The original with pong. At least I think it was an atari. It didn't have any game catridges. Just the flip levers on the top to change from tank to tennis, hockey, pong.

pitfall also had gold and silver bars, hello? and you could go down ladders, and also jump quicksand.  hello?  SAUL?  ARE  YOU THERE?

[steve dave]

A lot of the games on your list were NES though

[pissclams]

NES is great too. now let's all rub hands together and think about Mike Tyson's Punch Out 

[ltrain37]

Everything you ever needed to know about poker...



And the game that started my love for sports-themed video games...

Had a coleco vision w/ frogger, donkey kong, etc - mom played it more than I did. 

[steve dave]

smurf's adventure was fun.

YES.  Used to laugh my ass off as a little kid when I would make my smurf bend over and stick his butt in the air.  

[pissclams]

i know u d00des prob hated it but i used to love the Dragon's Lair game at the arcade.  looked like a cartoon.

Pretty much hated it.  Very frustrating and pointless really. Just push the stick to direction of yellow flash.

SPACE ACE or w/e was the same.
