Reviews for "We Played Nintendo"

What a great little tribute to the Age of Power! The shot of the kid opening the mailbox was especially poignant.

looks fun

Nicely done, I successfully traveled back in time!

I'm sick and tired of people saying "I'm a nintendo kid" " I played nintendo" "it was soo much cooler back then"
You know what, these games continue to live on in the present. Some of these games, like Zelda, have gotten much more interesting and many new features have been added.
So what's not to like about 2013 and the new gaming industry?
You can still get your hands on an NES and play it too!
You can play them all in the present (XBOX, Playstation, Dreamcast, etc...)
I've also lived in Japan for much of my life... I've used game systems that people have never heard of. But I don't go about complaining about how new games suck and how the old times were better.

You should rename the video to "We play Nintendo"
We still play it now!!! The past is still a part of our present, and I am thankful for that.

I used "Played" because back then people didn't really say "video games" they said "Nintendo."

I grew-up during the Super Nintendo (Or SNES) Generation onward... However, I had Played some of the Classic Nintendo (Or NES) Games/Series before. And I loved 'em! The Classic/Old-School Nintendo Games were proof that you didn't need 'Advanced/High-Quality Graphics' for a Game to be Fun and Amazing! It was all about the Characters, Story, and Gameplay! THOSE are Key Elements to what makes a TRUE Game! Something that the Current/Newer Generation of Gamers, don't truly understand. And something that even a lot of Old-School Gamers have forgotten about nowadays, aswell sadly...

Anyway, this was really well done. I feel as though you sorta captured the Heart&Spirit of what Most Gamers that were growing-up during the days of the Classic Nintendo Felt&Experienced. And the Music was Great! I felt it helped add to the feeling of Nostalgia that this video gives. And the Animated Shorts were very enjoyable aswell! Great job! ;D

P.S. As it was, and still is to this day, one of my fav Nintendo Games; so it would've been Awesome to see a "Super Mario Bros." Animated Short. But that's fine. Not gonna change my thoughts or Score on this vid. :D
