Super mario!

I've started playing supermario on my friend's nintendo a lot these days. It is SO much fun. I've reached world 8. I still haven't figured out how to unlock world 4 and world 7. Sigh. I will though..

I prefer playing simple games like mario than the world famous NFS or fifa or tomb raider or blah blah blah ....
Have you ever played hocus pocus ? Oh what a fun game!! You've to go and collect crystals all over the place, drink all kinds of potions..

Maybe I prefer these games because I played them in my childhood days. There are many memories attached with games like these. Prince of Persia, Alladin, Gold Runner, tetris..
Me and my sister used to play Alladin together. I used to shoot with the CTRL button and she used to control the navigation! oh what time we've had, collecting the apples, the gems and the flutes...!

Then there was this sudden rage of video games. We used to exchange those yellow color game cartridges having 99,999 games inside them!
There was a game of tanks, don't remember the name, it was a 2-player game. The goal was to save a plant(?) guarded by bricks. I can hear the game's music in my head right now.. we could build our own battle field using brick, grass, cement, water etc.. On killing the enemy tanks we used to get powers as well.. Anybody played it?



Even the cartoons aren't the same anymore. Its no -mickey mouse-chip n dale-quack pack-duck tales- days anymore. Its ben10, pokemon blah blah.. They all seem the same to me..

I'm taking the risk of sounding like an ol' grandma in this post.. Oh who cares! I loved my childhood!!
