I had the change to play on a nes a while ago, I was amased that, that old thing still worked. And had great fun with playing duckhunt and some other game, forgot the name, we played together
The nes is from a friend, I borowed it for a while great fun
I was blowing my longs out to get it to work sometime

My NES is still going strong, sans the occasionaly "blowing" my games recieve.
I beat Dragon Warrior the other day for like the 30th time. I still love the old school play style. Games were more fun back then I think.

True, emulation is a beautiful thing. But you couldnt play roms back then
Call it nostalgia if you will.

I break mine out once or twice a month maybe for a little contra, or ninja gaiden. I start playing some of the longer games but never finish.
I had to replace the 72 pin connector a few years ago, and it works as good as new.
