You zoomfags will never know what its like to blow in cartridges, bang on the console just to get the game working, and then have every single level of every one of these simple games be a massive challenge

Not him, but I have four of these on my shelf. I have no idea why, as I acquired them all before I turned ten and the memories have been lost to time, but they exist. I could understand one extra box, or maybe two, but three extras is just odd.

That has to be 'The Super Mario Bros Duck Hunt'. Great game.

The first 3 consoles you've ever owned. Can you remember the first game for each console too?

1. NES - Mario/Duck Hunt
2. Genesis - Double Dragon
3. SNES - Eye of the Beholder
