The N64 | Video Gaming Memories by Imraan Nazir 🎮🤜💥🤛 #RetroGaming #SuperNintendo

The first time I played the Nintendo 64 was in the late 90s at a friend’s house. The first game I played was James Bond GoldenEye. I remember holding the Nintendo 64 controller for the first time, gripping it at either end with my right thumb on the D-pad and my left thumb on the buttons.

My friend looked over and started to laugh. I wondered what he found so amusing. He set up the 2-player mode on GoldenEye, and when the game started, my character wouldn't move. I was using the D-pad, and my friend laughed even harder, telling me to use the analogue stick to move the character.

Documentary Review: Goldenera The Legend of GoldenEye 007 Revealed 🎬🎮 @GoldenEraDoco #RetroGaming #007 #JamesBond

A full-length documentary about ‘the most important video game ever made’, Goldenera is a pretty robust documentary that covers the background, creation, release, and impact of Rare’s seminal 1997 title, Goldeneye.

A title that fuelled millions of hours of gaming upon its release, and for a lot of people, was the nucleus for some of their most treasured videogame memories.

Well here's more of my bad art as this time I use MS Paint to create an idea I had for an article on Video Games cartridges.

I'll probably use it as inspiration to draw these by hand.

The grand old lady of video games is Nintendo and the history of Nintendo is something special in all gamers hearts.

☆ A Video Games Genre That Has Almost Died ☆

In an age where we are surrounded by phone apps and websites that promote real money gambling, I have recently been thinking about the more innocent times when digital gambling was only represented by casino type gambling games on video games systems like the SEGA Master System.

☆ My Retrogaming Video Games Bucket List ☆ #Retrogaming #GamersUnite

Retrogaming for me only occurs on carefully planned days of the week. It means that sometimes I will only get a one or two hour slot to play with and in that time I need to utilise my time efficiently as i may only get one chance a week to play computer games.

 

With this in mind I have created a Retrogaming Computer Games Bucket List.

 

This list is intended to highlight 2 must play games on the various consoles or computers that I am yet to play.

 

My intention is to work my way through this list before I kick the bucket!!
