lol. i just did yesterday nite. my FFIV suddenly freeze. switch off, took out the cart, blow it, rub2 the connectors with cotton bud, insert back, then only ok.

i think the spring inside my NDSL almost gone already la.

what's what you get when you are always switching carts. average one day i switch 3-4 games. hehehe..

That's what I'm playing at the moment. Still remember the day I play this game on my SNES+UFO (yeah, no money nor place to buy originals back then), it was May 1996, when I was in school holiday, Form 3, about 10+ times after I've completed Final Fantasy V cool2.gif Today's Final Fantasy's are nothing like yesteryears', thus me not playing anymore newer ones since X (and that was well below par at best).

NES >>>> PSP..

NES is where great games are born. before that there is the Atari 2600 (the 5200 is useless).

Today's games has lost its touch of staying up late, with the tv on and the lights turn off and nothing but the sound of Super Mario Bros. 3 (or Kid Icarus FTW)playing thru ur tv set, good times. Im lucky to have experience dat.

Hah not only that, I remember my dad used to have this log book to keep record of all the high scores (that time no way to save games mah!) just for bragging rights. We'd have neighbors coming over just to outdo each other.

Most of the 2600/colecovision game covers were awesome because they were hand painted works (no photoshop mah!). I suppose it was really a case of judging the book by it's cover then.

Aiyo, don't use helicopter kick. Use super knee kick and the whole game become so easy. I finish DD2 twice a day everyday during school holiday.

i used to have that Casio's handheld ala Game And Watch.

u know, Western Bar, Heli Attack (not sure what it's called).

i remember there's this traditional medicine shop near my house, they have 2 Game And Watch machines that dispenses kacang and you can play the game for 20 sen.

i used to hog the Donkey Kong machine while my dad was getting a haircut next door.

i was 5 back then. wow..

that sure brings up some nice memory. hehehe...
wonder if the old taukeh still keeping that machine.
wonder if i can buy it.. just for collection's sake.
