Remember when you were a kid, and you would play a video game for hours trying to beat it...well, Andy and I downloaded Super Mario Bros. (1985 version) and the 1st Zelda on our Wii. We couldn't stop playing last night, and now we both have the dreaded "Nintendo Thumb". That is when your left thumb is so sore from rolling around on the control to move you little man; we have to build up a callus for extended play times. Well, regardless of the pain we must endure, playing those games is a lot of fun! I am not the biggest fan of video games (except of course Smooth Moves, which is the best game ever), but the nostalgia of those games alone is worth playing...not to mention we are having a lot of fun bouncing on koopas!! Oh yeah, one other drawback...we constantly "sing" the theme to Super Mario Bros. even when the game isn't on.

I haven't played in years but...do do do do do do d-do bling bling do do do do do do d-do bling bling. I loved going underwater!
Ahh the ol'tendo thumb I know it well, tony hawk and GTA replicate it nicely but not to the old school way.... Smooth moves is cool but try mama chef. Its a vid game about making food, only the Japanese could come up with that concept.
