Hey guys, I recently bought an NES, along with some Castlevania games, some Ninja Gaiden games, and several others, and I'm really not having fun. I love older games, but I'm just not having any fun with it. It's a pain in the ass to get working, what with the flashing purple screen thing, and I'm not getting too much enjoyment out of playing. Am I playing the wrong games? Should I return it and get an SNES?

Well, if you're not having fun, no one can fix that for you. As for your screen flicker problem, the NES probably needs it's pins replaced; it's an easy repair, just take a bit of time to unscrew everything. You also need to buy new pin connectors, but it costs, like three bucks online.

Well the place where I bought it from gives a 90 day warranty. So I'll bring it in tomorrow. And can you recommend any games? I already know I love Super Mario bro's 2, so I'm getting that, I just need to know some good games, and not the typical "Legend of Zelda" response, I've played that game to death.

he says he is too much of a bitch to enjoy hard games, why would you suggest games he already listed as "not fun". If he didn't have the patience for castlevania how is this kid going to sit through ff1 or dragon warrior?
if this stupid faggot nigger can't enjoy ninja gaiden he should return the fucking thing and buy skyrim where he can just winmode forever

Ducktales
Mario 3
Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers
Adventures of Lolo
Clash at Demonhead
Contra

All super fun games that aren't hard to find under $20 each. If Castlevania and Ninja Gaiden are kicking your ass too hard I would start with some Capcom Disney licensed games, they pretty fair. Except Darkwing. That games kind of a dick.

This is like a troll thread to deliberately piss people off. I don't know that I think you're a troll, but even if not that's what this amounts to. My suggestions are that you:

a.) be born earlier and
b.) yes try an SNES you'll probably like it better

>>	Anonymous Wed Jul 10 02:29:16 2013 No.889904 N64 is probably the only console I just can't play these days. It hasn't aged well at all.

>>	Anonymous Wed Jul 10 02:31:45 2013 No.889907 Just get a genesis + cd addon instead. Genesis does what nintendon't.
