You guys DO realize some people in here are younger generation who got interested in retro stuff because old games are actually GOOD, instead of just it being nostalgia bait?

I was kind of halfway both, I was born in 1992 and didn't really play videogames until 1999 - but the first console I got was a Dendy. It came bundled with one of thos bootleg multicarts - it had Super Mario Bros, Dr Mario, Duck Hunt, Battle City and Wild Gunman - and a knockoff of Zapper (weird looking one too, it was shaped like a MP5 submachinegun). So yeah, I'd say those games above would be my first retro games? I mean, if we want to go into technicalities, Super Mario Bros was first on the list and the first one I played, so Super Mario Bros I guess.
(If you're curious, multicart was this one: http://bootleggames.wikia.com/wiki/Unchained_Melody_Multicarts#9999999-in-1 )

Also, unrelated: while looking for shit I found this crap:

dude thinks that Battletoads was a typical beatemup. That always cracks me up when shitty reviewers try to get away with playing just one level of the game and acting like they know shit.
