Two New Additions to The Collection of NES Games

super mario bros 2 punch-out nes games loose

I just picked up two NES games from mail. They did cost a bit and they aren’t the cheapest games available currently. There can be a debate about how retro games cost today a lot but I decided to spend my 100 euros for these two.

What do we have here? Well, there is the sequel, Super Mario Bros 2. It is somewhat different as a platformer video game if we compare it to the game that was also released for Nintendo. The game I am talking about is of course Super Mario Bros.

I actually have completed the first Super Mario Bros. I have only played the second game on the collection, Super Mario All-Stars, that was a cool remake collection of the first three games. The collection was released for SNES. I haven’t completed fully Super Mario Bros 3. Mario games, especially these NES/SNES games are something so phenomenal. I have to show appreation.

The other game I got through mail today is Punch-Out. If you really want to know a thing about these games prices I can tell you that Punch-Out was about 55 euros and SMB 2 was 45 euros. Pucnh-Out might be a bit rarer than SMB 2.

Punch-Out is a nice boxing game. As you can figure there is the great boxing star, Mike Tyson, on the cover of the game. The matter that Tyson is in this game’s cover might have been also a bad thing since Tyson was sentenced to prison some time after the game was published. I am not going into details with this one.

I have been thinking about buying these both two games for a long time already. There is just something magical in my opinion in owning a real physical game and also playing it. I could download a rom and fire it up on my Recalbox but I still think the way that I do about this matter. And it is also as legit way to play these NES games as can be.

My NES collection seems to be still growing. It takes some time to browse NES games from different web shops that are dedicated to retro games. It also takes time to find games that I don’t already own. My philosophy in NES collecting seems to be to find a game that I want to play. I also collect NES games that I have played as a kid.
