I really never felt like there was a console war back in the day. To me, it was all about the best looking and sounding games on a console. It seemed like each year I favored a new console I went from NES, SMS, rented Genesis like 5 times and SNES If I had to choose, I guess I favored the SNES games back in the day. I loved arcade games and the SNES was amazing for games like Street Fighter II, TMNT, Super Off-Road and Smash TV. Collection wise I still like the SNES. but I find the Sega Genesis more fun to collect for. Mostly because I like old arcade ports. But honestly, all those systems are fun

Maybe not bad games. But there's a bunch of middle of the road NES games where Tim Follin did the music. I find myself enjoying the music the most on these titles. And another good quality with bad games, sort of a joke, is they're usually cheap. I find that some games are known as bad but are actually pretty good if the price is right. Games like Cobra Command, Athena, Karate Champ and 1942 on the NES all usually rate bad but I totally got my $5 worth of fun out of these games.

If she likes Space Invaders you may want to try some more arcade classics like Mappy, Dig Dug, Donkey Kong, Popeye, Q-bert , defender 2, and Galaxian. Skip Joust and try balloon fight So fun

eBay knows about all the counterfeit crap on there site and they don't care. I'm certain if you call and complain they'll tell you to enable the "authenticity guarantee" filter. Honestly! It's there take a look.

No joke! It was a cheap hobby. I would compare buying a game to buying a Starbucks coffee. I'm nostalgic of 80's and 90's arcade games. Having a copy of old games that I used to own, rented or played on the arcades is relaxing. Even if it's a port. Fun to find electronics and fix them up and clean them. Always something to check out while on vacation. Discovery of games and consoles is fun. It's great to dive into a console's games after the dust has settled. With the Wii and GameCube I can remember starting a wanted games list after their popularity faded. A lot is those games well rated and like $5.

Now that you mentioned it. I really should teach him that trick.

Lately my son's Lego Mario started acting strange. It would show a phone/bluetooth symbol on the screen all the time. After looking on the internet, I found out that it's a pin issue. I was able to temporarily fix the issue by bending a couple of the pins. But sadly after about a month the issue came back. After trying to fix the issue a second time, it dawned on me that these pins look very similar to NES connector pins. I'm guessing that this product was designed by Lego, but what a odd coincidence. I feel like somebody is trolling me. LOL, anyway I just sent a support request to Lego.

Last EA game I bought I stopped playing because there was just too much plot.

I think this gimmick is great. I hoping for other new games that use it like; Frogger, Bomberman, Donkey Kong and Galaga. I wonder if the intellivision amico guys are noticing?

It's totally worth getting just for the edutainment Mortal Kombat game. You can use Scorpion to stab alphabet letters and yell "get over here!". Word fatalities are awesome too. Sadly, Acclaim did the rushed port and they forgot Babalities.

There isn't really a "right" approach to writing a game reviews. I enjoy different reviewers for different reasons. Some funny, others very informative like Jeremy Parish.

Yeah, I thought it sucked too. But multiplayer couch co-op with non computer friends was fun.

The arcade vibe of the Genesis is what really makes it great. Playing games like Golden Axe, Strider, Gauntlet IV, Road Blasters, Super Hang-on and Forgotten Worlds really brings the arcade experience home.

The music is so good it always gets me ready to do battle. And it crushes me with difficultly not to long after starting. But I still think it's awesome.

Played a lot on a emulator a long time ago. Have only played a real one a couple times. The thing that I found surprising with this console is the quality of the games are usually pretty good. For instance the Sega ports a lot of times are arguably better than Sega Genesis ports. I really like the TG16.
