I had a 2600, but when the 5200 came out, my parents got an Apple IIc. After that, us kids were getting ready for college, and so I never got another gaming console. I had a Mac Plus on my way to school a few years later. I played some games on that, and I still went to the arcades. I returned to console gaming probably around '95 when the Playstation came out.
I really wanted the manual from Ogre Battle: March of the Black Queen for SNES when I played it. It was not easy to figure it out without one.
I like manuals too, and get all excited if one comes in a new game today, but I've been trained by modern games to expect an in-game tutorial and not have to read anything. Some of these old games really need a manual to help you figure it all out. The graphics are sometimes so abstract, you can't readily tell what to do.
Aside from the ones you mentioned, I can't really think of any that were better on NES. Most of the ones I played were either just ok, or bad.
Environment seems to matter with film. I've watched the same film with different people and even different crowds at a theater, and got totally different experiences.
Apparently Howard Scott Warshaw (Yars, Raiders, ET) wrote it but it was never released. Also, like you said it was retooled as a A-Team game but that also was never released.
Lucky Switch owners. 150 games all in one.
I tried Final Legacy. It seemed like a cool game, but I couldn't figure it out on my first try. I'll have to, "gasp", read the manual.
I still miss the Pizza Hut I went to after little league baseball games as a kid.
Me too. I knew Avalanche was the origin of Kaboom!, but I'd never played it.
1978 is the reason why Fire Truck is black & white.
It's worth it. A barrel of laughs all the way through. A good message too, I thought.
I'm distracted by Forza Horizon's DLC already.
