Gawddamn this thread is a stroll down memory lane...

terpkristin · 06-02-2005, 08:18 PM

Alright, I got 5 to play with here. They're all kind of easy, though...

Number 1:

Number 2:

Number 3:

Number 4:

Number 5:

/tk

MJ4H · 06-02-2005, 08:19 PM

I believe the last one is Rad Racer?

EDIT : Reminder -

(I'm not gonna give the answer to this unless this page goes 10+ pages and no one still has it).

Correct, number 5 is Rad Racer by Square Soft, at the time they almost went belly-up, thus when they created "Final Fantasy" it really was...if the FF game didn't sell, they would be gone...

Weird. They show up in Firefox but not IE. Get a real browser, you putzes.

That said, I was just using GIS to link stuff up so some may not have gotten through to everyone. Normally, I'd assume it was one of those instances where I could see them since they were cached but no one else could. However, since some people were actually seeing the images then I suspect it's browser issues.

Sir Fozzie got the baseball ones correct: Bases Loaded, RBI, Nintendo Baseball. He also got the other racing game (Roadblasters). The games that some of you on the inferior browsers missed were Shadowgate, Lakers vs Celtics, and Marble Madness.

SI

sterlingice · 06-02-2005, 08:22 PM

Battletoads is the first of tk's. I'll see if I can figure out the others after I've gotten out of the shower. (I was going to use Rad Racer but opted for Roadblasters instead)

SI

terpkristin · 06-02-2005, 08:22 PM

Hmmm SI, I'm on Firefox and I couldn't get those images to load either....

Wow, so you nailed one while in the shower? Impressive. Most impressive.

cthomer5000 · 06-02-2005, 08:34 PM

terpkristin · 06-02-2005, 08:36 PM

4 more. Continuing the numbering from before...

Number 6:

Number 7:

Number 8 (props if you get this one):

Number 9:

/tk

cthomer5000 · 06-02-2005, 08:39 PM

6 = bomberman ... looks like SNES? so Super Bomberman?

terpkristin · 06-02-2005, 08:41 PM

6 is indeed Bomberman, I *think* it's NES one (doesn't look quite right for SNES to me)...

yeah, upon further inspection i think it's the NES version.

sterlingice · 06-02-2005, 08:58 PM

The second GBA of tk's (#4) is Final Fantasy Adventure (you can tell by the character's hair that it's from the FF series)

Number 8 looks like something from the Phantasy Star series

Number 4 is indeed Final Fantasy Adventure, oft-looked-over red headed stepchild of the FF series.
Number 8 is Phantasy Star Adventure. Sega Game Gear, baby!

Well, it's been 10-15 years, but as I recall it mainly involved mashing buttons really quickly.

sterlingice · 06-02-2005, 09:08 PM

I took a page out of tk's book and registered at photobucket to make sure these went through. I think I may start a thread and do a couple daily or every other day or something.

Possibly my sister's favorite game growing up

This one kindof cheats since it's not the main game mode

There's rumblings of a Nintendo Revolution version

There were at least 3 games in this series for the NES platform alone

Sometimes hair-pullingly annoying puzzle game. There were a lot of these, too

Fairly popular adventure/rpg

This one is such a gimmie I even hesitate to include it. That the screenie has Star Wars names just makes it so much dorkier...

Number 1 from SI is Bubble Bobble.
Number 2 don't know
Number 3 not sure
Number 4 is going to irk me because I know I played it.
Number 5 I know I played

Yeah- I'd love to see them revive that on the Revolution.

I picked 7 that were "fairly" popular but not too easy, I hope (except the last one and that was more a scolding "this series wasn't always about pretty pictures" reminder to people

)

All are NES, btw

SI

ThunderingHERD · 06-02-2005, 09:16 PM

Besides the obvious ones, the puzzle game is Adventures of Lolo.

Well, I'm assuming #7 is a Final Fantasy game, but I don't know that for sure. I don't really play RPGs.

terpkristin · 06-02-2005, 09:19 PM

For SI's
Number 2: Blaster Master?

Number 6: STAR TROPICS (I just remembered...)

It was the original Final Fantasy. Aside from some gameplay tedium (@#%@#$@#%#@% elf cave), this was back when the series didn't have angsty anti-heroes and whiny useless villains and stupid plots, relying on shiny graphics and silly minigames to boost popularity... but I digress.

(4 of 7 now)

Yup yup. Blaster Master when he's not in the car, Hudson's Adventure Island, and Star Tropics. I think that might be it for me tonight but I really am considering making this a daily or a couple times a week thing over in the dynasty thread where I post maybe 5 pictures of slightly more obscure stuff and let people guess.

Ahh... recall all of those now. I'm having 1992 EGM flashbacks.

terpkristin · 06-02-2005, 09:28 PM

Still to be guessed of the ones I posted...

Number 2:

Number 3 (this picture is in the VERY FIRST ITERATION of the game, it became much more popular on Gameboy):

Number 7 (I played this a lot on the PC):

Number 9 (there were many iterations of this game, multi-platform):

Fantasy Empires, right?

I remember playing it a lot in my first year of undergrad. The computers in the lab in the dorm were 486 SX 25's, which played at about the right speed when the army fighting wasn't too big but could get a little too slow otherwise.

One of the guys got his hero up to level 36, if I remember right. I think the guy was enough of a beast to win battles singlehandedly.

SirFozzie · 06-02-2005, 09:49 PM

7= Cmdr Keen?
9= Worms

the adventure island one was Jojo's Adventure Island I think

I thought #3 was the old Pitstop game, but I don't think it ever had a GB version

terpkristin · 06-02-2005, 09:52 PM

Oooh, SirFozzie gets a cookie!
7 is Commander Keen 3
9 is Worms 3-D (but close enough)

Wow, I thought #2 was the easy one, but nobody seems to have it yet....

/tk

MJ4H · 06-02-2005, 09:54 PM

#3 F1 Racer?

Yep, that's the one.

Heh, I got up to a lvl 36 Druid at one time. Always liked the Druids because there attack was them throwing a row of magic acorns that exploded. You just can't beat that.

Blast doing sieges and stuff. Good times. There was another D&D strategy game I played quite a bit back then also but can't for the life of me think of the name now. You basically picked buildings and such, and units would be made. I want to say you had little to no control over what they actually did, but they'd fight off invaders, etc.. This is probably the worst description of a game ever, so I'll stop.

The football game is XOR Pro Football, with 2-D match action.

Vince · 06-03-2005, 01:12 AM

Wish I had found this earlier -- I would have owned at half the ones that TK and SI posted

If it's a NES game from the late 80s early 90s, I'm all about it

AgustusM · 06-03-2005, 01:15 AM

yes - well mostly - XOR NFL Challenge - circa 1984.

orginal cost $100!!! My friend and I saved our money from our 3.35/hour jobs and bought it together to play on my dads computer when he wasn't around.
