I know Berry Sweet will love it. $99 from Bed Bath and Beyond. Gonna gift it to my coworker as a Christmas present for his kids.



Bunch of classic games included. StarFox 2, Super Mario World, Super Mario Kart, Donkey Kong Country, Legend Of Zelda, Street Fighter 2 Turbo, Super Metroid, Super Punch Out, Final Fantasy 3, Megaman X, Yoshi's Island, and many more.



It's small.

You know, I've never been in a Bed Bath and Beyond store. I thought all they sold were boring linens and bath mats. Now that I know they sell cool stuff like this, I will make a point of going into the one in a nearby strip mall. :thumbup:

Does that bring back memories.



If you don't mind me asking, how old are you? Are you into old classic video games?

I need this.  They have it at London drugs for $99.  I'm disappointed in some of the games I bought...I do like the fact I'm using the actual old school console and games, but my Mario cart does not have the special cup race and I cant access rainbow road :(



I'm still going to keep it, but I know I'm better off getting the new edition.

I'm not a gamer.  But I dont mind playing some old school games sometimes.  The only current game I have going on right now is Hay Day.  Been playing it for 5 years...I'm near level 100.

I got the Mario cart cause I wanted to race rainbow road with my kid and her friends, but its unavailable on the cartridge I bought.  It was a piss off.



Kids thought it was cool but had a hard time controlling their player and then started complaining about the graphics...lol...I get it, but it's a game from my time.

Kids of your age play 8 bit video games for nostalgia.



I play cards. That's all we had back when television was black and white, intercontinental aircraft had propellers while most people used ships, and telephones were a luxury item for the rich and famous with calls being made through an operator.



Dang, times were tough back then, chillun...

That was a short while though thankfully, eventually she got a Firebird, then an Iroc Z28. I use to love to sit on my knees in the passenger seat, mullet whippin' in the wind, those were the days  :laugh:

Brick and I are just giving each other shit lol.



I just turned 42, so my early childhood that I can remember began in 1980 (born in '76). I loved Nintendo, and remember when the Super came out. I knew it was coming, so I sold all my Nintendo games and system (which I wish I never had), and ordered a Super out of a catalog, and got it before it even hit stores lol. Graphics were so much more better. Still have all my Super stuff  :thumbup:

We never had a car when my brother and I were growing up, not in Taiwan and not in Canada.



Neither of my parents ever had a driver's license.
