Do you remember when you were a kid, playing Nintendo and it wouldn’t work? You take the cartridge out, blow in it and that would magically fix the problem. Every kid I knew did that, but how the hell did we all know how to fix the problem? There was no internet or message boards or FAQ’s. We just figured it out. Today’s kids haven't got a f**king clue. _________________  ~The dog is a gentleman! I hope to go to his heaven, not man's~ |

| OMG i remember that game it was the olympics wasnt it :thinking: You could do things like the hurdles and the javalin and hammer throwing and the rowing used to nearly kill you because it went on for ages :san41: We all had blisters on our fingers from playing this game Those were the days I can remember being addicted to playing the first Sonic the hedgehog game aswell I used to race in from work and start playing it straight away i was desperate to get to the end of the game before my OH did  |
