Hi, my name is Jose Manuel a.k.a Gendou_kun, I'm here because I'm a NES/Famicon big fan and I wanna meet people who likes those consoles like me and be friends, share information or trade some games :)

Welcome to the forums friend!

Hello!

Oh I like this icon  :bub:

I joined the other day, and have been lurking a little. I remember playing SMB on a mate's NES back in the day, and those PlayChoice machines, but never owned one. Have more recently been playing Ultimate NES Remix and some VC games (SMB, Balloon Fight etc) on my 3DS, and been getting the urge to play some of them on the real hardware.

Wasn't happy about NES prices on ebay, started eyeing up the Famicoms, I love the look of the original model, but the budget got extra tight so for now I've grabbed a shonky PowerJoy for a few quid ;D The supplied pirate cart sadly doesn't have Balloon Fight but it has the marvellous Pandamar hack of SMB, and some other great games. Will keep me going for now until I have more cash to splash...

Hi!

Kind of new to the forums. Have lurked a bit and been reading in the technical threads.

Have previously been collecting mostly european NES games, but recently got a Famicom.
Man, have I been missing out! What a difference!

Hey fellow famicom owners,

Final Fantasy I

Final Fantasy II
Final Fantasy II
Final Fantasy III

Quarth

I actually just acquired an NES-101 top loader last week and so far I have Tetris and Tengen Tetris for it, however I wanted to get some games to play with my kids like Bomberman II which is 3 player, but the US version of the game is way too expensive, where as I paid $6 for the Japanese version.

Long ago I was a Nintendo collector and then I got out of it, now that I have changed jobs etc, I finally have some time to be collecting again so I'm looking forward to growing my collection and contributing!

Thanks
Grant

Hi there!

Finally decided to de-lurk this forum after some while.

Been into videogames for about as long as I can remember; the NES was my very first console, back in 1987.

My main focus is on Japanese 16 and 32 Bit systems and arcade hardware. However, a couple of years ago I decided to get back into 8-bit and start a small but nice Famicom collection of games I enjoy.

I like anything that's arcadey and challenging, so shoot 'em ups and action platformers are my genres of choice. I also like action-RPGs though (particularly the Ys series).

My top 3 Famicom games are:


  • Dracula Densetsu

  • Ninja Ryukenden

  • Salamander



Some of you may recognize me as a regular on Shmups Forum, Gamengai and some other places.

I look forward to conversing with you guys!
