When I knew someone that had an NES I picked up Ghosts and Goblins and Crystalias.

The hardest NES game and the only one I cant find a working rom for.

A game I enjoyed immensely was Faxanadu....

I'm just amazed that they let the patent run out...

Honestly, why would they renew it?

Ohh, oh no, with the mighty power of 8-bits, someone could bring Nintendo to their KNEES!

Especially since one of the selling points of the revolution is that you can play old games on it. Now that people can play their old games otherwise, they might not buy them on the rev.

Meh, for 16-bit and 64-bit games, you've still only got one place to go. Plus, even if you have to buy every game you want for the Revolution, what will it be, a buck each? You could probably get 30 games for less then buying one of those NES clones. Emulation whould be a much bigger worry then those.

True... I'm just saying it's unusual that they let a patent go is all..

I believe it's likening the new controller to the Nintendo Powerglove, the greatest disaster in gaming controller history... I would liken it as possibly being worse then the Virtual Boy, although that's debateable.

That's what I thought, but... it looks like it's supposed to be a POSITIVE statement...

It has the Powerglove in the picture, it CAN'T be positive. That just doesn't happen.

I still vote it's parody. The Powerglove was going to change things FOREVER... And it flopped. I think they're saying the controller will do the same.

It doesn't do a good job at parody, that sentence at the bottom looks to be positive. I dunno.

It was an ad for the Powerglove before it came out, of course it's positive, Nintendo was trying to sell it and "Revolutionize" the industry...

So like, omigawd, I hate that controller even though I haven't even used it yet and base all my assumptions on pictures.
