I know I posted it in another thread but there's a level in Startropics where you have to search for a letter from Dr. Jones that will give you the code to unlock something. The letter actually came with the game and you had to submerge it in water for it to show you the numbers. I actually still have the letter. It was just a piece of brown paper but you could barely see the numbers even before you submerged it. Heh games back then were cool

I know right. I wish consoles today still made classic "scrolling" games and that they would just update them with better graphics. I'd play them. I'm playing Megaman 3 right now on X-Box from that Megaman Anniversiary game.

EyeballGrowth 04.29.2006 08:14 PM

I say Mario 3 and Mario World are tied as the best mario games


and this

 


That's right, Fabio was on the cover. And that game still kicked ass

I can't believe no one mentioned Super Dodgeball

one weird but awesome game to check out for the nes is "zombie nation".. a floating samurai zombie head destroys buildings..

krastian 04.30.2006 02:23 PM

I remember that one. It kind of reminded me of one of my all-time favorites.....Abadox. It was considered bloody and "edgy" when it first came out.

krastian 05.10.2006 11:55 PM

Double Dragon had some of the best NES music EVER.
 

Everyneurotic 05.10.2006 11:58 PM

i think the best nes music ever is found on megaman 2, some of those songs are just crazy.

krastian 05.11.2006 12:03 AM

You took the words right out of my mouth. Easily my favorite Megaman and for me it's music only really rivals Mike Tyson's Punch Out for the all time best. I've been playing the old games lately on that 15th Anniversiary Megaman Collection. Quite a few I've never played as a kid.

Everyneurotic 05.11.2006 12:18 AM

i played 1 but not thoroughly, i have 2, almost finished 3 without owning it, played 4 a bit, and might have played a level of 5; beyond that, i didn't touch no megaman on the nes, i do however, have megaman x for the snes and that one is in the top mm games. anyway, you are playing the anniversary edition on what? (sorry, i've been pretty out of it game speaking for a while, more of a passive aficionado of the newer stuff now)

krastian 05.11.2006 12:28 AM

It's on X-Box and has Megaman 1-8 plus two bonus Megaman games that you have to unlock. I never played any of the ones on SNES or Playstation so it's cool to have them on this disc. I only played 1-4 on NES as a kid.
