Dude, so not fair.

I want a Famicom MIB more though... (the Japanese NES).

*That Matt Guy* · 09-03-2003, 10:24 PM

I still have my original one, amazingly it's still in near mint condition.

**GK Punk** · 09-03-2003, 10:55 PM

I almost bought a Famicom at Anime Expo... They didnt have the Disc System, or Metroid so I changed my mind.,

While I'll admit nothing truly beats playing the actual game pak, it'd probably be a hell of a lot easier to placate yourself for now and just download an emulator and search for the ROMs

BigThew · 09-04-2003, 10:55 PM

it is not the same
will never be the same
you can't play duck hunt on your computer

CookSux · 09-05-2003, 12:06 AM

Why not get the updated Nintendo? It looks better.

Really? I can play it on my dreamcast

*JameO* · 09-05-2003, 05:40 AM

Damn nice find Thew! I wish I could get my old one back was in good condition but my parents sold it when I was gone out. Unbelievable! GO DUCK HUNT!

Are you sure? While not an NES emulator, MAME allows mouse support for gun games (with a crosshair) and light gun support, maybe there's a NES emulator out there with crosshairing for light gun games...

~~Tokka-B~~ · 09-05-2003, 01:16 PM

Yea, but who wants to mouse click when you can use the actual light gun?

*That Matt Guy* · 09-05-2003, 01:19 PM

I have to agree, it's better to play with controllers and the gun than with a mouse.

When you say gun, do you mean that horrendous plastic refrigerator that came with the NES?

You can be just as fast with a mouse as with a light gun...in a way, using a mouse in cunjunction with a crosshair is better in the sens that you actually know where the shot will go.

But that t5akes all the fun away. It then is turned into a point and click game as opposed to an aim and shoot game. Plus how do you think our military was trained. Do you think they used a mouse? No. They played duckhunt.

~~Leo656~~ · 09-05-2003, 06:27 PM

And then there's some of us like me who just plain don't like playing games on my PC.

I mean, when I'm home I'd like to spend SOME time recreating without staring at a computer screen, y'know?

TMNT is cooler than MOTU · 09-05-2003, 07:17 PM

Many years ago, I sold mine.

*Voltron* · 09-06-2003, 01:39 PM

My father sold my NES, Genesis, and Super Nintendo in one fell swoop. I tried to kill him, but I was 12 at the time and he was far to strong. He then made me watch him sell the systems and the games to what was then Funcoland. I burst into tears as they said "We'll give you a penny a peice for the NES games." I still haven't forgiven him.
