You sit alone in your living room, pounding on a 13 button controller, yelling into a microphone at a 12 year old boy who is up way past his bedtime. You curse, you swear... the surround sound is turned on full volume as the warm HD glow of the t.v. fills the room. Suddenly, the door opens and your girlfriend walks in.

Because the N64 Did Have Some Good Games

A Trip Down Video Game Memory Lane

Thinking back to most of the games you played on the NES, it's easy to remember the 8-bit library as being simple and possibly even primitive. However, if you dig deep into the library, there is a surprising amount of games that maxed out the NES hardware to produce some impressive graphics and sound. With the Famicom / NES hardware remaining popular and active on the retail scene for over a decade, game developers had a lot of time to perfect their programming techniques and squeeze every last bit of power out of the iconic console.

Usually, when you get a new-to-you console, you can usually find or remember the major games to check out. But what happens when you need something different to play? This is where the "Hidden Gems" come in.
