Super Nintendo was my favorite system of all time. I LOVE the game Act Raiser. I don't have a SNES anymore, but I still have an N64. That's pretty retro at this point, I guess. The graphics look horrible when compared to what is out now...but a fun game is a fun game. Not everything has to be 3-D with 4000 play hours required to beat it.

That's very, very true!
We still have an N64 too.. a pikachu edition that was bought for the kids years ago. On the odd occasion that I let them have that out they still have lots of fun with it.

I want one of those pong games.  I think my uncle still might have his, i dunno.  They were simple and fun.  lol
What about that ROCK'Em KNOCK'EM SOCK'EM Robots.....Robots in a ring together and you fight...when one gets hit in the chin  it makes their necks spring up.  Had one when I was a kid, found one for my son thinking he would enjoy it.  WRONG!  Most boring thing I have ever seen he said.  I said no way Logan...this was aways fun...So I sat down with him...well I quickly figured out why my memory of the game is only about 5 seconds long.....because that is about as long as I could handle sitting there playing the game.

With an emulator, you can play a lot of retro games on your computer, even if you don't have the system anymore.  There are emulators for Atari, SNES, N64, etc.  Just do a little googling 8)
