I know I’m mean, but I’m real sorry,
I didn’t mean to make you cry,

Emulator gaming is a lot of fun, you take the brilliance and playability of old school games and add it with the ease of loading any game you own on command. Now obviously I would never play games I didn’t own and have rights to, so please don’t assume I downloaded any roms.
All morning I have been playing Super Mario Kart and and Mario Kart 64 and man-oh-man is that so much fun. Toad completely owns the track when I am behind the wheel! Not to mention my name should be Mitch “James Bond” Malone when I start whooping butt in 007: Goldeneye. I think I like these games more for the memories that they bring up.
Super Mario Kart reminds me of playing in early high school years with my buddies. I think I was the last of all the guys to ever play, which put me at a bit of a disadvantage and I got my ass handed to me a few times, but it wasn’t long until I got a handle on Toad and began whooping ass myself. Sleepovers, playing SNES until midnight, those were the days!
007: Goldeneye was later high school. We played the game literally every single day, we’d meet at a friends house close to my high school and play until well into roll call time. We played the game in every single mode, with every single cheat and at every single chance. We’d cut class, leave at lunch and do anything to play this game, it was unreal!
If you go to my deviantART account and look at the comments on Toad Wins from Ryan (~stinkbrown) you will read, “Man toad sucks and everyone knows it, even you know it. You know that Regan as Wario will always rule!!! A-hahahahahahaha! Personally I was always more of a Yoshi man on the old Mario Kart 64, Top A style!” Top A was the floor I lived on at college and we had the most hardcore Mario Kart 64 lust ever imagined. I mean, we played it more than I played 007: Goldeneye back in high school. We’d play every chance we had and even create mock tournaments to give ourselves an excuse to consume alcohol and have some laughs!
If you’re looking for some excuse to waste some time, hit eBay and buy yourself some games so you can use the roms. It’s probably the most fun you’ll have without the purchase of a donkey!
