yeah, the NES days were the best. A friend of mine played alot of those games and beat them when we were younger, but i could never beat mario 1 for the life of me. Never got very far in the second one cause it takes sooo much time. beat the third and all later ones though.

Jay's is so right about how most games nowadays seem like a walk in the park compared to those NES games. I wonder if it has to do with the fact that we've all grown up and stuff. But man those old NES games were tough.
