/vr/ - Retro Games

What was the deal with these? What the hell does 'nes' mean? Is that a French word or something? How can you call a game a classic the first time you release it?

Also did anyone else think these were pretty lame compared to other GBA games? They seemed really simple, like something my grandpa would have played back in 1984 lol

I also found it really confusing how Super Mario Advance 4 was called 'Super Mario Bros 3'. None of the other Super Mario Advance games had titles like that, what were the first two? Is Super Mario Advance 2: Super Mario World the first Super Mario Bros? Then Super Mario Advance 3: Yoshi's Island is Super Mario Bros 2 where you find out their origin story? Really weird titles all around with these games.
