Top Ten Adult NES Games

Usually, I would shy away from top ten lists and not for any sinister reason (I have done them in the past myself), but just simply because you find yourself having to justify your choices. For example, over at Topless Robot you will find an excellent list of top ten adult NES (not that type, you perv). Here you will find a selection of mature films that have been recreated for kids who want to relive their... (read more »)

Super Mario Bros. X

Check out the fan created Super Mario Bros that looks so awesomely awesome that I wish I had someone to play it with right now. Not only is this in the vein of Super Mario World but this designer built a full 50 level game for you to enjoy. As you can see in the trailer below, there are a plethora of power-ups that aren’t normally seen in a SMB game. I still think the best feature is the two player co-op,... (read more »)

One Byte Cafe – Love, Hate, Love, Nintendo

This is a flame, a rant, an outburst, and just some plain old belly aching about falling in love, out of love, and then back in love with Nintendo. Dear Nintendo, You weren’t always my favourite. I began my video game life on an Atari 400 personal computer. We had just a few games and Galaxian was the only one that stands out in my memory. I was very young and we had very few games. Later, I moved into an... (read more »)

Punch Out!! No Hit Run

While doing some research on Punch-Out I happened to find a collection of interesting videos on YouTube of gamers playing through Punch-Out without getting hit. I watched a few and after eliminating a couple for being assisted attempts I settled on the run by darou4321. He successfully completes the game in one sitting and even though he does have to block an attack by Tyson, he doesn’t take a blow to the... (read more »)

Wireless Nes Concept

Just suppose for a second that the NES was never made in the 80′s, like it was in our history but made now. Using all the technology at hand today, what would it look like? Personally I’d like to think that if the NES was made now it would look a lot like this concept image for the Wireless NES pad. Drawn by the artist Mousevomit, this NES pad utilises both wireless and touch sensitive technology and... (read more »)

One of the greatest NES emulators of all times seems that they are making it one inch of awesome better than before. Check out the the video below and feast your eye on the wonderment. It seems that this new version of the emulator will allow you to manipulate things in the game that you never could have touched before. It is all a little over my head at this time, but maybe we will all understand it better... (read more »)

What if: The Dark Knight was on the NES?

This video is everything I remember for the NES like the... (read more »)

Wii Sports Highest Selling Game Ever

Hot on the heels of the most played system it turns out that third placed Wii managed to sell so many copies of Wii Sports that it is now the highest selling game in the world. This was helped in part by the fact that it was bundled with the Wii, but lets not forget that this did not apply to Asia where the Wii had no games bundled with it. As of the 27th December 2008 Wii Sports surpassed Super Mario Bros 40.24... (read more »)
