Nilesh.org Notes on technology and everything else

Ya, this reminds my childhood too. My favourite was Atari video games :-)

Seems like most of us have been thru the same experience. Playing friends' video games and envying them all our childhood. :)

Nilesh, Like you, I never owned one but I sure enjoyed playing Donkey Kong when I friends brought theirs to school. We didn't get any studying done - that's for sure! Do you think the design folks at Nintendo decided to go back into their archives and refurbish an old model? The similarities are uncanny. I suspect the new version has a crisper (color) LCD screens and the games can be swapped in and out (making it a whole lot more reasonable in terms of price). Will have to check the emulator.

Seshu, I agree with you. It isn't supposed to be a refurbished model. But an improvement to the highly successful & addictive Game&Watch games of the yesteryears.

Donkey Kong was great!! I didn't have a 'videogame' we used to call them that then, but as u said i envied my friends set!! Those were the games then. Remember PACMAN ? or super mario?? :) I can produly say i have saved the queen tens of times!!

My favourite is PSP but i like the Nintendo DS too
