Day 24: Favorite classic game

I am going to confine my interpretation of the Classic Game as any game from my first system the NES. With that in mind here is my latest entry on the 30 Day Video Game Challenge

This was the first Legend of Zelda game I owned and I used to play it almost every day when I was 6. Never beat it though until I discovered emulators, roms and save states when I was much older.

One of the misunderstood Legend of Zelda Games. This game got some bad reviews and is considered one of the worst in the series. I on the other hand love it. The storytelling that went into this game was epic for it’s time and it really established the Zelda legend. If you don’t know what I mean, check this picture set out.

This was a hard pick with so many classic games so I will mention a few just from the NES that were considered. There were also plenty more across other systems that could have easily won.

30 Day Video Game Challenge. Day 7: Favorite game couple

Day 1: Very first video game

Day 2: Favorite video game character

Day 3: A game that is underrated

Day 4: Your guilty pleasure game

Day 5: Game character you feel you are the most like (or wish your were)

Day 6: Most annoying character

Favorite game couple. I’m going to interpret this as a guy/girl couple as I’m sure is the intention of the description.

Many early games employ the ‘damsel in distress’ storyline. That’s just what other media represented more strongly. And was a simple enough concept for mostly young boys who were the target audiences. 

It was this thinking that has produced probably the most recognisable ‘video game’ couple of all time. Obviously that is…

Lolo and… Pink Lolo (Lola maybe?)

No I am obviously referring to Mario and Princess Peach

Mario has been running to the Princesses rescue since 1985 and in countless games. They have raced karts, been Olympic representatvies in both Summer and Winter events, gone pro in Tennis, Golf and Baseball, as well as dabbled in many other sports. They have had many Parties and when there is some sorting out to be done they sort it out in Super Smash Bros Brawl style

A far better love story than Twilight.

30 Day video game challenge

Day 1: Very first video game

The first game I ever owned was Duck Tales on the NES. I got it for my 5th birthday.

The first game I ever played shouldn’t be much of a surprise to everyone and I would imagine it was the first game for many people.
