Just downloaded SMB. Sheer bliss.

SHEER BLISS. Super Mario Brothers has been available for the NES/SNES/GB/GBA, and is perfectly emulated on the PC, but downloading (and paying money for!!!!!!) Super Mario Brothers in 2006 for the Wii has sent this poster into peals of ecstasy. Post number 8,044 well spent. Can anyone speculate what was stopping Gary from playing SMB before last week?

R-Type was my first VC purchase when it went up on sale yesterday (in Europe). Ah, the silky-smooth animations and the pixel-precise controls! They even give you three (THREE!) credits for continues, and a rapid-fire button. And it took me less than an hour to beat the first boss. :p

Well this makes a bit more sense. Getting an arcade port of R-Type is a little more rare. Haha, just kidding, it's the TurboGrafx-16 version of R-Type. Oh well, close enough, and getting three credits for continues makes up for it.

my first purchase was SMB... sadly... soon followed by MB. (although I'm not sure why... I always thought that game was rather dry)

This poster is my favourite. He's disgusted by his actions and tries to distance himself from his past.
