Generation NEX and NES games
Posted: Sun Jul 19, 2009 1:00 am
So a few days ago I picked up a Generation NEX. I mainly got it cuz it plays both NES and Famicom games, but I'm kinda disappointed with it. Like most NES clones, it won't play certain games (including one of my all time favs Castlevania III) and I also hear there's even more Famicom games it won't play. The sound issues that it has on most games is very apparent. It's very bad on Double Dragon II.
I'm prolly gonna trade it toward a FC Mobile II next week (and I confirmed Castlevaina III as well as reproductions and bootlegs will play on it. I even heard PAL games play on it too, but not sure).
Anyway, after I got the NEX, I went to my local Movie Trading Company, and I got Double Dragon II: The Revenge, Rad Racer, Dragon Warrior, Solar Jetman, Xevious, and TMNT (the original one).
Double Dragon II has been a blast to play but I can't seem to make it past the level after the helicopter lands.
I forgot just how hard Rad Racer can be. I gotta be perfect and not hit any cars or get in any crashes just to make the checkpoints.
Got reacquainted with Solar Jetman tonight and remembered all the fun I had with it when I used to rent it a lot as a kid.
I haven't played the other games yet, but I looking forward to starting Dragon Warrior.
I was gonna get Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, but they wanted $25 for it, and it was the gray cart, not the gold one! Oh well, I know I can find it cheap online.
