Pining for Pixels # 129 - 10 Games That Defined the NES
Description
Welcome to the Pining For Pixels podcast! This is my video game variety show podcast, part of the Red Rooster's Gaming Coop network where I talk gaming and gaming culture every week. Each episode will feature a subject or theme that interests me, and I will speak about what is on my mind in the world of video games!
This week I was feeling nostalgic, thinking about some of my earliest gaming memories with the NES. It got me thinking about how I had defined the NES era in my mind as a child, and this shared language we all have of those experiences despite not being connected like we are all so easily able to be today. This list of 10 games and franchises is personal to me, and by no means absolute. I imagine most people's list would look much the same, but possibly for different reasons. I thought it would be fun to share the stories as to why these games are special for me and my experience with them. Tune in to go down memory lane with me, and see if my list would match your own.
