You'd have had it backwards. Their gaming tastes have been dragging the nostalgia out of me. The reason that I have the emulator on the TV is because they've beaten all of the Mario, Mario Kart, and Fire Emblem releases for modern systems and were desperate to try the earlier versions. Hell, Ian beat one of the Advance Wars games that was never released in the US - in Japanese - and doesn't speak a word of it.coopasonic wrote: I was going to give Blackhawk some grief on his SNES thread about pushing nostalgia on his children, but then I saw this thread and bought the 3-pack of pac-man, galaga and dig-dug for both my account and my kids account. In my defense, Galaga is better than anything that was ever released on the SNES (hyperbole possible here).
The time setting that up for them got me thinking about the classics myself.
