Nintendo Replayed: Will my old Nintendo games hold up when I play them as an adult?
Parents, you know that feeling you get when you get your kid a big thing of bubbles, you know because kids love bubbles, and a week later you find puddles of spilled bubble solution all over the house? That's how my mother felt a week after buying us the power pad. In her defense, she had no idea using that thing would shake the entire house. As a kid, I didn't care. I was just pissed because I had this thing that could translate my movements onto the screen, thereby transporting me into the game Tron-style, and it just sat in a cabinet.
When my mom wasn't home, I would pull the pad out sometimes. My sisters were usually around, and they would tattle on me, so I just played with my hands. I could only get that to work with the long jump. Does anyone have cool World Class Track Meet stories because I would love to find out if this game was fun or not.
