    I know it’s a weird topic to talk about, but I sold a game console hoping that the money would be put towards my PS3 game downloads, which I did, but… The thing is, I sold my Nintendo Wii last year, because the Network on it didn’t connect anymore. What I wanted to do before but failed to was buy and install all my NES, Genesis and SNES games onto it just like what I’m doing with the PS3 downloading PS1, PS2, PS3 games, and do away with the hard copies. I should of gotten those old Nintendo and Sega Genesis games when I had the chance. Now the Wii is gone, and both my PCs have storage space taken up when I prefer my games stored on the system itself.

    If there’s any way to still get those old games onto a system that connects to the Nintendo Network, would someone let me know. I don’t want my PCs being the only way to play old-school games.

    I don’t have this exact problem, but I do have PCs that are ‘obsolete’. (Planned obsolescence really chaps my ass!) They are now off the internet and dedicated to special purposes. This is the best I can come up with.

    Remember the yellow light of death for the PS3? I hated that so much.

    Yeah my first of two PS3s had the Yellow Light of Death with my Resident Evil 5 game trapped inside. I shouldn’t of left it on while I was sleeping one night, and went back to playing it all the next day. That screwed me over. I went on eBay to get it to a repair shop, and that guy was a crook; he charged me high price and he wouldn’t sent it back unless I gave him a positive feedback and if I didn’t he would throw it away. Bastard! It came back, but it was still in Yellow Light Of Death but the game was removed though. So that was $450 p~~~ed away. I bought another PS3 for $182 (20GB back compatible), which I still have, and from then on, I keep my room cold when I play it, because my PS3 makes a sound that sounds like it’s taking off like a plane, and gets hot fast. I even open the window in the worst of winter if it means keeping my PS3 functioning. I also did install a cooler fan on the front of it, but the heat is one the back and the right side. I don’t trust any PS3 after that first one died.

    In my opinion, you should of kept the SNES, because that was the best of all the Nintendo systems. The graphics and gameplay where just right; not too fancy graphics, but not too basic. They had good memorable games like: Mortal Kombat, Donkey Kong Country, Ninja Turtle IV Turtles in Time (this was the better version), Super Mario All-Stars, Legend Of Mystical Ninja, Pit Fighter, Street Fighter II, Mega Man VII and Wrestle Royal Rumble. They were fun back in the day, and they weren’t as stressful as the games they have now.

    But what the hell, as long as there’s eBay, you can buy back another SNES and get a large collection of games, and relive it.

    Still have my N64. Some of the games like Mission Impossible were quite entertaining.

    I still have all my systems except the Wii. I did download them all as ROMs, ISOs and emulators because my hard copies struggle in the system, and besides, it’s easier to have all the games installed inside the system like I have the old games on my PC, and my PlayStation 1 – 3 games stored on the PS3. No disc or cartridge needed. Since my NES, Genesis and SNES don’t function, I just use them as bedroom décor for sentimental value.
