NES MANIA
This page
is dedicated to one of the greatest gaming systems to have ever graced our
living rooms. Released in the U.S. in 1985 with a light gun and a dual cartridge
of Duck Hunt & Super Mario Bros. It was an astounding success to
say the least. With hundreds of games, and countless accessories, the NES
proved to be a staple of mine and many others youth. Now thanks to computer
technology you can play those games of your youth right on your own PC. So
sit back and enjoy the nostalgia. If you have any questions or comments feel
free to e-mail me Thanks!
