Hello everybody! First off I want to thank the webmaster for making this truly wonderful site! I didn't see an introduction section, so I thought I would just take some time to say hello this way.

Well, let me start off by saying that I grew up playing the NES as a kid. I've been gaming for well over 20 years now. My favorite console is obviously the NES Deluxe Set with R.O.B. I'm very proud to say that I actually own a  NES Deluxe Set in nearly new condition, complete with everything it originally came with, including the plastic it was wrapped in, super rare Duck Hunt and Gyromite games in boxes, manuals, posters, Nintendo's Official seal of approval card and everything!

My favorite game franchise is without a doubt The Legend of Zelda. I own an authentic, original, factory sealed, brand new, never opened, The Legend of Zelda game for NES! It has the horizontal line on the back in the plastic seal and even has the original plastic hanger! It's exactly the same as if you went in the stores in 1987 and bought it.

I can remember opening up the very first Legend of Zelda for NES in 1987 for Christmas as a kid and seeing the gold cartridge for the very first time. I've been hooked on Zelda games ever since!

One things for certain, I love classic Nintendo and Zelda! I've written several reviews for the Legend of Zelda game series and even an actual article on the history of NES. I'm a hardcore, old-school, gamer, from back in the day who's all about the classics!

Thanks! I only have what's listed above plus Zelda II The Adventure of Link, Mint and complete in box.

Now, when I was a kid I had tons of games and an NES Action Set. Regretfully I sold off my childhood collection to a company called FUNCO Inc. when I was in high school. I so wish I hadn't, because everything I owned was like new. I always took such good care of my stuff.

I don't play my current collection as it's priceless and for display only. I do play all the NES games in another fashion, however! I'm sure ya know what I'm talking about.

More than likely, I would love to. I'm just so proud and thankful for what I do own right now. I have the holy grails of NES in my posession. with an exception to  1990 Nintendo World Championship Cartridge and the rare stuff like that. From a sentimental stand point I own the most valued treasures though.
