dude that shit wasnt even close to 8-bit, nintendo had 8, Im thinking 4 max. Remember when it was cool to say "that game has killer graphics", do people still say that?

I'm Sorry Wolfie But Pac Man Sucked On The 2600. It Improved On The 5200. Hands Down, Tank Was One Of The Best. By The Way, Answering This Thread Kind Of Gives Away Our Age. This thread has killer graphics.

 

[wolfie_cr]

Never had a 5200, only a good ol 2600 ..........had I told my dad I wanted a new console after I made him buy kazillion games......would not have been good for my health

Anyone else pay $70 bucks to buy SMB3 when it first came out?

I bought a joystick thingy that you connect to your TV and it has Pac Man, Dig Dug, Indy 500, and Galaga on it. It was fun!!! I tried to find a pic of it, but no photo available. I got it at Toys R Us like a year ago. The best part was that it only cost $19.99!

 

[ScubaSteve]

haha. i saw those at pricesmart here in escazu a week ago. they had a line of tico kids all around it waiting to play them oldschool games

I remember 20-something years ago, my Dad shelled out almost $60 for my brother to get pacman when it first came out on the 2600. That would have to be like $100 nowadays.

Last Christmas I bought my brother the joystick thing that Guiness Gal is talking about. He went crazy. Best gift I could have given him. His PS2 sits there unused while the joystick game thing is always plugged in the t.v.

Not to get off topic, Pitfall was awesome, but I think River Raid was a hair better.
