dualhunter Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 I didn't know the NES existed until 89 and didn't get one till 91 (a year before getting a SNES). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littleronin Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 I remember my dad bringing home the bundle that had R.O.B. Those were fun times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dre801 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 I remember preferring the skeet shooting option over Duck Hunt. My friends and I played that shit for hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skillzdadirecta Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I got mine for my birthday... I had the deluxe system that came with R.O.B. Gyromite, The Light Gun and Duck Hunt. Good times. It was NOT my first system though... that honor went to the Colecovision a few years before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodimus Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I had fun during thanksgiving teaching my Cousin's kids about the system. We played SMB and they all completed level 1. That level is great in teaching you the game. Run and Jump is the key. They also enjoyed Balloon Fight and Bubble Bobble. I showed them Castlevania. Then we played the SNES mini. It was so good to have them start on the NES mini. Finally a good use for these for me. They are small and easy to hook up to others TVs.

CastlevaniaNut18 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 It was my first system, though I didn't get one til '90 or maybe it was '91. It came with Super Mario Bros 3 and two controllers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
