What NES game are you playing right now?
05. Aug 2008 at 19:28

Are you playing a NES game these days? if yes, which one is it?

I've been playing "Gold Medal Challenge '92" today and it's just as great as I remember it. My brother and I used to borrow the game from a friend back in the days but we unfortunately never got around to buying it ourselves.

Years back I managed to get the US version, "Barcelona '92", but it just wasn't the same..... Today this baby arrived in my mailbox!

Aug 2008 at 10:25 Heh I wasn't actually thinking of the Olympics, but that's another reason to give Gold Medal Challenge a try I suppose. Yesterday I played Dizzy the Adventurer and completed it in less than an hour... how sad the game is so short - but still a very cool game.

Perhaps the next game spotlight?

I think it would make an excellent game spotlight - there would be a lot to talk about - the obvious point being the old shinobi / Ninja Gaiden / Black Manta who ripped off who debate, major differences in the game from the others mentioned etc.

It's very 'Konami' in nature, not too taxing on the brain, but the gameplay is solid. I'm determined to complete it!

I'd happily make the screenshots and such if you wish, alle you need to do is write the text It's of course up to you though...

Aug 2008 at 23:13 Sure, I'll give it a bash then. What sort of tone do you prefer it to be written in? Factual? Funny? Review? And what sort of length would you like? I've written a fair bit before over on sega8bit (I'm an admin for the site and a mod for the forum) so you can see stuff I've written before - reviews etc.

Whatever you find best for you... I actually try to mix factual and fun, sometimes I succeed I think and other times I don't

I don't really have any demands for written material other than you should be happy with what you wrote... I just think it's great to see someone else write something for the site so that it isn't always my stupid jokes that are repeated over and over, if I even have a sense of humor... hmmm

Ok, well I'll get onto it! I'm not going to have time today though. I might get time tomorrow, though I have a meeting on Wednesday to prepare for so it depends how I get on with that. So if I don't get a chance tomorrow then it'll probably be Thursday before I can get it done. Either way I'll get it done before the end of the week.

I just sort-of finished Al Unser Jr. Actually, I just got kind of bored with it. Chicken has a lot of cool secrets, but it's a pretty short game overall.
