I like early Famicom games
I think it was the last place you could really find a lot of fun and unique single-screen arcade games

I always think of 1982 as the golden year of pre-SMB video games. Robotron, Joust, and Ms. Pac-Man, all perfect games released in that year.

Well, late 70s and early 80s are officially considered the golden age of arcade video games, so you aren't far off.

This.

Also pic related is my favorite one screen game, and also my favorite game. The physics are just so dead on, especially on the arcade machine with those Williams leaf switches.

Does anyone have a ROM for "Donkey Kong Original Edition"? The one released as a promotional thing on the Virtual Console, it's the Famicom version with the Pie Factory added.

This early era of the NES is one of my favorites, there's something incredibly cozy about the simplicity of everything: The solid black backgrounds, the caricature-style sprites, the simple music loops that get stuck in your head, and the games themselves are usually easy to learn, hard to master.

Nuts & Milk, Clu Clu Land, Door Door, Flappy, and Binary Land are not ports, at least not arcade ports. There were original home console games made in that style too.

I believe Nuts & Milk and Binary Land were originally MSX/home computer games at first, but the Famicom versions that came out later were drastically different. Same with Bomberman. For example, MSX Binary Land and MSX Bomberman, the characters were human, but in the Famicom ports, they were penguins and robot respectively.

nut's & milk is literally a different game iirc, like the msx version was more of an adventures of lolo type deal and the FC one a platformer

Check out the Atari 7800 ProSystem. It has a whole bunch of arcade perfect ports from that era.

>> No.6470840

>>6470832
Oh no they ain't, broski. Those "ports" were made by playing an arcade cab and trying to vaguely guess how the game works; none of them were made with the original source code, art assets, or hit box charts.
