Not going to school today
I started a thread at atariage.com asking people what their favorite "classic" NES game was. The choices were Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, Metriod, Tetris, Mega Man, and Final Fantasy. There were arguments for Dragon Warrior instead of Final Fantasy, and a lot of beef about not including Castlevania, which was probably a mistake on my part, and has already been duly noted. Just wondering what you guys think, especially since most of you are probably not 35 year old Atari geeks.
Here's the link to the actualy poll. Go wild. [url]http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=74962 [/url]
As a side note, the reason I'm even involved with AtariAge at all is because my brother wrote an Atari 2600 game called Go Fish! ([url]http://www.atariage.com/store/product_info.php?products_id=309 [/url]), and he asked me to write the music for it, which I did. Like most Atari music, it's really annoying and repetitive, but hey, it's music on a 2600 game, and those were rare enough. If you're really interested, you could even download the binary and play it on an emulator. Or you could fork over $25 and get a cartridge, 5 of which go to my brother. I get no royalties (weak). That's all.
