Remember this game above? That’s right, NHL ’93 for Sega Genesis. Man, I used to play this all the time. Of course, video games have come along way since this 16-bit classic. But if you’re interested in playing these old games once in a while and you’re not a game nerd that has the old systems lying around, there’s a couple great websites where you can play any Sega Genesis game you want right on your computer! Seriously, it’s sick. Nintendo too. Last night, I was surfing around looking for some cool games that my young kids at work could play during our holiday break, and I stumbled upon a GOLDMINE. I tried a couple out, and they play pretty well too, you just have to adjust to using the keyboard, but it looks and plays exactly like you remember. I played a couple of my old favorites, and it was a blast I can’t front I felt like a pimply little pimp again. NHL ’93, NBA JAM (He’s on firrrreeeeeee!!!!), NBA Live ’96, Madden ’93, Sonic. The Nintendo games are even crazy too. Tennis?!?!?!? Excitebike. Baseball. Tecmo Bowl. Super Mario Bros pt. 2?!?!?! I’m telling you, these sites have EVERY GAME. And it’s all free. Check these links, then thank me later.
Now I know you can get lots of old games on Nintendo Wii, and of course the new video games blow these away. I mean, Guitar Hero is crazy. Have you seen NBA 2K9 for PS3? It’s unbelievable. But for the pure nostalgia and accessability of it all, these internet sites are great. And the games are so fun to play. Trust me, I see the games these little kids like to play in my lab up here at the BGC, and they’re not that rad. Some are cool, on sites like miniclip.com and gamegecko.com, but I think once I put them on to these old Sega Genesis and Nintendo games they’re gonna be hooked. By the way, what’s your top 5 favorite video games of all time? Let me know in the comments section if you dare…
I got next!
