Old School NES

Best $6 I ever spent: replacing the cartridge holder to fix the chronic "blink" problem of my old school NES.
Great games: Metroid, Zelda (II, particularly), all the Mario Bros, Castlevania I &II, Dr. Mario, Tetris (that damn music....)... there are too many to name.
Playing my old NES reminds me how great Nintendo can really be. And it shows on the GameCube as well: Metroid Prime, FZero GX, and Zelda:TWW are great.

Did everyone do the slap the game around then blow on the contacts thing? I don't know how everyone happened to know how to do this but you see random people w/ NES's and when they get the blink problem everyone always takes the game out, slaps it a few times then blows on it...then puts it back in....

blasphemy to all the Emulator players! its not the same! nah, j/k, its a good way to capture one's past, but you kids never expierenced the struggle and frustration and finally the joy of shoving 2 cartridges into the console just so the game could play! i still have my nintendo, and every few months i get nostalgic and break it out again. "bah!" to buying the replacement strip so it doesnt blink, thats part of the whole expierence.
/me feels like an old man now ranting to kids on how easy they have it these days 😛
