love seeing the stuff I had as a kid and would have probably never thought about or seen again.
thanks for all the great pics guys. Think I had just about everything posted at one time or another except that 2-XL dude. I remember him but never had one.
Speaking of old Nintendo games, did anyone play SNK Baseball. It was by far the best baseball game I have played before or since. You could create teams and power each player up by winning games. We used to play that in high school and college. I had a friend who had a team of poets. We played a tournament and his #9 batter, Emily Dickenson, hit a game winning homer in the bottom of the 9th. I used to have a team called the Mayberry 9. Here was the lineup. 1B Gomer-power hitter #$3 in lineup 2B Goober 3B Barney SS Thelma Lou LF Asa (The bank guard) CF Opie RF Helen SLP Floyd SRP Andy RP Aunt Bea
I know it was pretty lame, but I was and still am a big Andy Griffith fan.
If any of you remember this game, you could have a pitcher "warm up" in the Penn- they showed him in a little box and if you left him in there too long it would show him all tired out You have to remember to appreaciate it!
I didn't read beyond the first few posts but do you realize Target still sells those? I had the early version and when that broke, I saw that Target still has the football and baseball versions.

Ice Hockey ran a close second. >>
It was Baseball Stars. It was the best NES baseball game. Ihad a team once that I let play a computer vs computer game against the main computer team. It ended in the 3rd inning when I scored my 100th run of the game. Final official score was 99-98. My #4 Hitter had 43 RBI and 17 Homeruns in one game and in just 3 innings. We tried for 3 years to repeat those results and never could get it.
Then there was Bases Loaded. I remember you could alway take the best player on the game out of it by beaning him in the first inning. He would always charge the mound.

So I guess it is safe to assume that was your first computer hacking experience
Just like games today there are always cheats and exploits.
Baseball Stars had one. When you created your team you did a series of moves on the controller and it would ask "When it is?" You change it to "when it isn't?" You were given a super team to start with.
Take Mike Tyson's Punchout and type in the code 007-373-5963 takes you straight to Tyson( I know of no cheat to beat him) I can beat him though about 70% of the time I fight him.
There are so many then ther was the Game Genie.. BTW I still have a working NES hooked up in the spare bedroom along with several other old systems that still work. The NES is my fave though.

Not sure where it came from but I had this one when I was a kid and played with it in the 80's.

That was the exact same thing as the Coleco version, just had Sears on it instead.
