Going backwards in time huh Bill? Nothing wrong with a little regression, every now and then I dress up like John Wayne and start chasing the red-faced alcoholics down the street.
Ha, I always liked Nintendo because you could just pick it up and play it without reading an instructions booklet and having to practice it. Once these systems added a 4th button I was out.
I'm still the baddest Kid Icarus , Bomberman, Zelda player to ever blow into the bottom of a cartridge.

You will LOVE the wii, then.
Even the Sports game that comes with the console will entertain you for ages. Make sure to check out all of the training modes, they are actually great mini-games themselves.
Legend of Zelda-Twilight Princess is very good if you like that sort of thing.
Wii-Play is worth it for the free controller, but nowhere near as good as Sports.
This game is/was supposed to come out. It is called final furlong. It is a horse racing game. You may have seen it at ESPN Zone or wherever. Think of the Daytona Racing arcade games that have the banks of cars. Maybe 4 or 6 and you race against each other. In the arcade it was a bank of horses that you rode. I shit you not, this game worked so many muscles. If you rode properly, your legs would feel like jelly. The game is awesome to say the least. It was out around 1998. I think they still have them at ESPN Zone. Anyway, this game is supposed to come out for WII and it would be the game where it would be like an intense workout.
WarioWare is very good but very short. I recommend renting/Gamefly.
Two short Marble Madness-ish games I like are Kororinpa and Super Monkey Ball Blitz.
Another one I think is underrated is Mario Party 8. As usual, the single player is a non-starter, but it's a great game to play with friends and would be especially good to play with kids.
I remmeber how happy I was to get the Intelevision so I could dump my Atari 2600!!!
Great machine. Those games are timeless. The graphic systems are built toward the computer gamer but the Nintendo and the Intelevision had the classics.
I got one for my daughter and it came with a sports CD with bowling,golf, baseball, tennis had a great time with all the games. My 9 yr old owned me on every game. Has anyone tried Tiger Woods Golf on the Wii?
I was big into Thief, the Dark Project, back in the previous century. A new game that looks promising is Assassin's Creed. Looking at the screen shots it has the same feel as Thief. Not a Nintendo player, so no idea what is available for that platform.

did you get the adapter that allowed you to also play 2600 games on it, my friend had that system, i had a 2600 and coleco vision, my other friend had atari 5200 and coleco vision. damn that was some fun times. anyone remember those mini arcade games, it was basically a very small replica of a big arcade unit and they had a wall adapter or ran on 6-8 C batteries, i had the donkey kong,pac-man, and frogger ones.
Best Nintendo Wii games?
