I Love Video Games

I was watching the movie Pixels the other night and looking at some of the old video games the referenced like Donkey Kong and Asteroids etc. I downloaded a few of those just to try them out and I also remembered the old Nintendo hand held games like this.

I remember I had this game, plus donkey Kong 3, and green house. I think some of these are worth a bit now. These hand held games were massive back in the early 80s and we're well before the first Game Boy. Did anyone have some of the other games? I remember there was one about oil?

Yeah I think it was oil panic. I think I had donkey Kong 1 and 3. Plus I remember I also had Green House.

@Laughman I actually played "green house" , someone had it, but I don't know who :|

And I never ever seen Donkey Kong 3... I didn't even notice this excisted.

@Kwek00 sorry I checked, it was DK 1 and 2, not 3.

@Laughman Oh my niece had them. And DK Jr. I posted them in my bigger post.

But I had to look DK 3... and apperently it excists. I never ever seen this module.

But yeah, it was a cheap way back then for my mom to say: "now you have a computer too". And I kinda loved these games, I played them a lot. But they do get repetitive.

What amazed me, is that I tried Zelda out a couple of years ago. And it suddenly was hard again 😅

@Kwek00 I'll say. I've tried donkey Kong just tonight and I can only do 1 level.

@Laughman LOL Well, you need to get back into it.


I just looked up: "Game and Watch: Zelda". They are asking 300 US dollar for it out there 😅. I'm pretty sure it's catching dust at my parents place unless mom gave it away.
