Memorable Video Game Moments!
After out growing action figures and making the transition into…no not adult hood…comic books and Baseball cards,my interest in video games also became more prevalent.Video games gave me the ability to actually control the comic book characters as well as play out a full 9 inning game of Baseball using my favorite teams.Enter the Nintendo Entertainment System or NES!I didn’t get to own one of these bad boys until the tail end of its popularity and it was a good thing because at that point there were tons of quality games out for it.But the two games that really made an impact on me in the early 90’s were LJN’s Wolverine and RBI Baseball 3!I remember walking into my local Electronics Boutique and seeing these two games on display.I would pick up the display boxes and shake them a bit first,wondering if the actual game was inside,and then turn over to the back to check out the screenshots and drool at the prospect of one day having my own copies of Wolverine and RBI 3!
After saving up enough Christmas cash I was finally able to pick up a copy of Wolverine and RBI 3 and didn’t leave the house for a good week or two.I played both of these games religiously ,waking up early on the weekends to spend more QT with my NES 😉 .
Taking A Big Brake
Sorry for the lack of posts and comments everyone as things have gotten a little hectic and i really haven’t had the time to blog much these days.I will however find time to quickly check out some of my favorite blogs including The Cosmic Ark(loving the Joes man,keep em’ coming), Monster Cafe and Action Figure Adventures but probably won’t be doing much commenting on them or any other blogs for a while.This means that i’ll also be taking a brake from posting as well.Thanks for understanding 😉
