Anyone remember the first Nintendos?

Sweet! I remember I had this one with some guy juggling. I would play for hours. *googles a bit* Ah here it is :) http://www.greatgamedatabase.com/GGDB/Details.asp?VID=5782&Cat=All.Handheld.GameWatch[^] BW "Gandalf. Yes. That is what they used to call me.

Those where great! I had Zelda and Donkey Kong. I really loved the Zelda one. Played for hours and was great at it. Donkey Kong stopped functioning when I tried to open the thing. Well it did work then, but not when I put it back together :-O. I'd do anything to get my hands on the Zelda one (can't remember what happened to it). ----------------------- New and improved: kwakkelflap.com My second CP article: MAP files[^] while (!:bob:.IsDrunk()) { :bob:.Drink( :beer: ); }

While I was deciding between a Sega Saturn and Sony Playstation, my sister was combing the stores for the original Nintendo. To this day, she still prefers the old games to the new ones. :) Jon Sagara Hi! I'm Melanoma, Moley Russell's wart. -- Uncle Buck

Of course, if you used to - I don't know about that for sure. But the way I see it, you've already paid for the license if you used to own it. Anyway, pick a NES emulator[^] and the game[^] and get going! Jeremy Falcon Imputek

It wasn't the NES Zelda, but the handheld one. Thanks for the links; maybe I'll find some other games I used to play. ----------------------- New and improved: kwakkelflap.com My second CP article: MAP files[^] while (!:bob:.IsDrunk()) { :bob:.Drink( :beer: ); }

What a fascinating history! Thanks.:-D It is ok for women not to like sports, so long as they nod in the right places and bring beers at the right times.

Thanks, but sadly the first one I downloaded does not work on W2000 aka written by morons. Too bad there's no email address or forum on that page, or I would tell him so. Christian No offense, but I don't really want to encourage the creation of another VB developer. - Larry Antram 22 Oct 2002
