HOLY SHIT!!!!!

I have been trying to remember what the fuck this game was for an eternity. All I remembered what was that the first level had white/silver backgrounds and you had a sword or something. I don't remember why I couldn't remember what it was because I beat the shit out of this game.

So I consulted my uncle, who introduced me to video games.

It was STRIDER.

Mind. Blown.

Yes. I did. There have to be others who have been looking for games they played as a kid but just can't fucking remember what they were.

Yeah, a thread where duders could post about RANDOM GAMING TALK, that'd be nice, right?

I thought the game was okay. I liked Mario, Zelda and other nes games way more.

I liked Batman nes more than this.

Genesis version though, that's memorable.

if you are emulating - try Holy Diver for some controller throwing awesomeness.

What NES stuff do you have? Any boxed? REAL interested in the "black box" early Nintendo games boxed/complete. My brother bought a lot of the NES games we own and so I want my own copies, since he'll be taking his shit with him once he gets a bigger apartment.

There's this SNES RPG that I remember my parents renting for me. The only image I have left in my memory is of these band of kids in some volcano area possibly with a monster(s) tagging along with them.

cool breeze · « **Reply #24 on:** September 12, 2011, 10:12:09 PM »

for me it is a game either on PC or Mac, old mid to early 90s. it's a top down adventure/action game set on an alien-prehistoric world and you're a normal guy. there was a jetpack power up.

I kept thinking it was called Prehistoric Bob, but I think I made that up as a kid.

haha, searching for it I found an old gaf thread where I asked. I never checked it again but someone answered. The game was called Power Pete. Prehistoric Bob, what the fuck?

Aside from Strider, my first games were:

Mario Bros.
Duck Hunt
Mario Bros. 3
Zelda 1
Zelda 2
Castlevania 2
Castlevania 3

I actually remember going to Toys R' Us with my aunt to get Batman nes for my uncle's birthday. In order to get a game you had to get a slip and you'd take to the front desk or something.

I didn't have an NES growing up though.

The first system I owned was a Genesis.

I'm trying to remember some of the Genny games I rented as a kid.

One of my favorite Genesis games to rent? Taz-Mania.

The first Genesis game my dad rented for me was Batman Returns. We'd try to go through it. I was distraught when it wasn't the same Batman game my uncle had. :'( :'(

We've still got my wife's NES. She had Contra, SMB1, 2, 3, Zelda 1 and 2, Sky Kid, Baseball, and Paperboy. I've picked up a few games for it over the years including Excite Bike, Crystalis, FFI, etc.

My first videogame was probably Centipede or Burger Time.
