I got an NES, the original type, when I started collecting in the mid 90s. I remember playing Dig Dug and Gradius. There were more, but I don't remember - probably Zelda though. Later I got a top loader (NES-101) style deck and used it mainly for Wizardry, but I pick up new games from time to time. I just saw a mint-in-box NES-101 at my retro store going for $300. I guess that model is in demand right now. I'm not giving mine up though.

I've been picking up collections too lately. I got Kirby's Dream Collection, Silent Hill HD and Ico/Shadow in the last month. I want that Jak & Daxter and Ratchet & Clank next.

I just saw the Ghost in the Shell movie and loved it. There's a Playstation and PS2 game also. 

I'm soon to play a From Software game I never played before, Otogi Myth of Demons back on the original Xbox. 

Hum? I must've missed MacAvoy back in the day. I just added Tea with the Black Dragon to my list. 

Ha ha! That sounds like a cool game.

That's a fine selection. I don't think anyone will disagree with those being the best of the best. It's like the best starting library of games for the system. 

That was my 1995, being out of work that is. My first 1up blog was sometime in 2010.

I've heard Nintendo is making more of them this time. At least that's what I heard but the Gamestopers were trying to convince me I should get one before they are gone. I just wanted Olimar. 

They tried to get me to buy others, but I just wanted Olimar. It's just fun to look at.
