I remember when I was younger alot. NES was big back then, and I had my favorites. I still have memories of renting games after dinner and on Fridays after school. I miss those days. I try to recreate them sometimes, but it's not the same. I still remember certain games make me think of different shops :). All those shops are gone now and the ones around here are pretty lame sometimes :(.

Woow!
Hello folks!

Yes yes, the same for me --- Castlevania III was a hit in my life!
Thanks God I had in my hometown here in Brazil a rental shop
who have bought around 100 NES games, all original in cases
with manual. So, I was able to play all great NES games
back in 1992, 1993. Because you know... Living in a small
town, and outside USA, is quite difficult sometimes to
get all game releases and so on.

Other thing that makes me have tears in the eyes, was when
I was renting Final Fantasy I! My mom and dad ever wanted
me to play only in the weekends, and I remember when was
out to deliver the game to the shop in a monday... and got
a tricky idea!

I came back home with the game hidden in my clothes, and
used to play during all that week in the middle of the night,
when everybody was asleep, until finish the game.

Oh, all my savings were gone to be renting a game for
so many days.

PS. Thanks to NES and Famicom I learnt all english
and japanese laguage I know today!

hhhmmm my favorite memory with gaming was play castlevania 64 and resident evil 2 those were the games that make me strive to become a video game programer......... 8) but other than that i don't have many happy memorys in general.
...............
well... i do remeber one time. It was late i about 3 in the morning, this was both my parents devorced (i think i spelled that wrong). I was about 7 years old, i happened to wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. when i was done taking care of bussiness, i noticed there was a tv on in the bonus room. so i went to go and turn it off, but when i got in there i saw my father playing Super Mario Bros 3. I asked him why he was awake... he didn't give me and answear and just asked me if i wanted to play. I said "yes" and climbed in his lap and we played untill we fell alsleep.........My Mother and him seperated a couple of weeks later......
But i would go through that devorce again and again to spend that one night with me father....i have to say it was one the greatest moments in my life 8) so play video games with your parents even if its only once....but keep the game simple because my father SUCKS at Super mario bros hehehe
yep... I'm back...

Geez, too many to list them all, but I will share my very first NES memory.

My brother and I had gotten a NES for Christmas, and didn't know too much about it. We had been born and bred on Atari so we were used to playing games where every board was the same and basically repeats indefinitely. When we popped in Super Mario Bros. we were amazed that the board actually scrolled by and looked like something other than a bunch of pixels. When we finally beat world 1-4 we thought that was it, and the game was over and we would just repeat the same boards over again (like an Atari game would have). We were amazed to learn that the Princess was actually in another castle, and that moment really showed us how huge this game was going to be and changed how we looked at video games and their influence on our lives.
It's a sad thing that your adventures have ended here!!

Lots & lots of memories. The ones that stand out tend to be with the harder games, I.E. Solomon's Key, Adventure Of Link, etc. I remember trying over & over to beat the one boss in Mega Man 1 that splits into pieces and you have to jump over the pieces and hit him in the eye several times to defeat him. I just couldn't get the timing right for a few DAYS, and I finally beat the boss, of all times, drunk off my *ss. I also remember being obsessed with finding every single 'implement' in the Goonies II and the location of the tranceiver eluding me for many weeks. And of course, every game I play brings new memories. :)
