NES

So, got one of the coolest presents one can get, an original new in box NES. That's right, never used, never turned on brand fucking new NES. So I'm taking it out of its box right, piece by piece, light gun(2), controllers, game, then i flip the lid open of the hell of it and what the fuck is in there?! another game, a god damn awsome as hell bootleg cart(2) from 1988! 250 ripped games! holy shit, stayed up with the gf until 3am playing games neither of us had played since we were kids. Wierd thing though about it, it's not a first run NES (nes came out i think in '85 this ones dated '88) and since it's from canada everything in english and french, kind of funny.

Only wierd thing about playing the system, you start to notice when most of these games where made and ya start to feel kind of old, which is wierd thinking i'm only 22. Then I realized there are other gamers out there now, people i've prolly played games with online (WoW, haflife etc) might not have even been alive or were infants when i was playing some of these games new...little bit of a strange feeling.

That a side, having an NES fucking rocks, just wanted to let you know.
