The hardest videogame EVER?


Ok, since my carefree days of sitting in front of my TV - playing hours of video games while eating a baloney sandwich off my naked stomach-turn-TV tray - are almost over, I decided to treat myself for my 30th Birthday and buy myself a Nintendo Micro.

I had my eyes on a Sony PSP for the longest time, but in the end it was my wife's love for the classic games that won me over to Mario's side. Can I just say now that I completely forgot how BLOODY HARD old-school Nintendo games were?! What's going on?? I bought the original ancestor to the flying / shooting genre, Twin Bee, and I can't pass the first level 9 times out of 10!! It's like this sick, computerized DEMON of a program relishes in letting my missiles pass right through my enemies, while at the same time locking onto my slowly moving position for a kill shot from all the way across the screen. And those bells...... THOSE DAMN BELLS!!!! As far as I am concerned, I don't need a Playstation 3 or Xbox 360. I am gonna be busy with the Micro for a while.

P.S. Ghosts and Goblins and Dig Dug are quitely sitting on my Christmas wish list.... wink wink.
