Block84.com - Lifestyle is a terrible thing to waste.

Lately there has been a resurgence of sort with Nintendo. Of course all that is old becomes new again and vintage always is cool, but in this case, we are talking about something that revolutionized the industry and changed lives.

Sure there was Colecovision, and even Atari, but neither could come close to Nintendo. With games like Contra, Paperboy, and one of my personal favorites, Bad Dudes (seen below).

Nintendo kick started what is now one of the biggest industries in the world. Growing up our generation was lucky enough to experience the growing pains of Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis and so on so that the generation of today can play Xbox 360 and PS3. Ask a 10 year old what Ninja Gaiden or Double Dragon is and they will have no clue, but they will be able to name you  every weapon in every level of Halo 3.

I am not sour, as I also play these games. Honestly when my Xbox blew up a few weeks ago it was hard to wait for the new one to come in. I just think the current generation really needs to understand how things have grown to truly appreciate what they have now. Enough of sounding like an old man and onto the point.
