    The story of Commodore Business Machines must be divided into two distinct parts_the Tramiel era and the post-Tramiel era. It was Jack Tramiel who created Commodore and made it the leader in home computers, and it was his exit that changed the company culture and made it into what it has become today_a bad company with a great product.

Gamasutra - A History of Gaming Platforms: The Commodore 64 - 0 views

    The Commodore 64 (C64) is perhaps the best known 8-bit computing platform ever designed, rivaled only by the Apple II in terms of popularity and longevity. Within a few short years after its introduction in 1982, the Commodore 64 dominated the low-end computer market, receiving a steady stream of software and peripheral support that lasted through the decade.

    Like a first love or a first car, a first computer can hold a special place in people's hearts. For millions of kids who grew up in the 1980s, that first computer was the Commodore 64. Twenty-five years later, that first brush with computer addiction is as strong as ever.

    MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--I don't want to date myself, but when I was in high school, one of the things I remember was that, among the geeks like myself who hung out in the computer lab, a bit of a culture war was under way.

Home Video Games: Atari 5200 Advanced Game System - 0 views

    The Atari 5200 is, dare I say it, Atari's answer to Intellivision, Colecovision and the Astrocade. Why a new game system when Atari already had the 400 and 800 computer systems with far more power, memory, picture resolution and overall capability than any dedicated game unit? Well, reasoned the powers that be at Atari, "the game playing world just isn't ready for a real computer."

The Top 10 Best Super Nintendo Games of ALL TIME - By Adam Gadomski - 0 views

    The Top 10 Super Nintendo Games of All Time - I am a huge Nintendo fan. I have fond memories of playing my SNES late at night, hoping that my mom wouldn't wake up and find me doing so. There were plenty of games that I loved to play on it, some bought, many borrowed, some played at friends' houses. Sadly, I missed out on some of the "great ones"; The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past and all of the Final Fantasy games immediately come to mind. This is a list of the ten best games for that system, based on my own nostalgia. Enjoy!

Top Ten Super Nintendo (SNES) RPG - By Ross Diamond - 0 views

  •  
    All of us who have grown up in the 90's remember the SNES console. It is a classic second generation Nintendo game surpasses the expectations of NES. While we are introduced to additional buttons the feel of the games seem to be more complex with new dimensions being in introduced. This additional dimension gave way for some of the most excellent RPG games.

Rice's Top 10 Original Nintendo Games - By Anthony McGeathey - 0 views

    I was born in the 70's, so I have fond memories of the Nintendo Entertainment System. From having to blow in the cartridge to get it to work, stacking cartridges inside the system and writing down codes because there was no save feature.

Top 10 Video Games for the Super Nintendo - By Nathaniel Wayne - 0 views

    These days Nintendo has gamers flailing their arms around to the amusement of onlookers with the runaway success of the Wii. However before that Nintendo had it rough for a while. The Gamecube was completely leveled by the PS2 and original XBox and before the N64 backed the wrong horse by opting for cartridge games over the PS1 and its CD-ROM style games (which could hold much more information.) However before their downturn Nintendo ruled the landscape with the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES.) Many still consider this the heyday of Nintendo games. With that in mind here's a look at the best this now retro system had to offer. This list isn't ranked due to its genre spanning nature.

Top Five Favorite Nintendo Games - By Lee Andrew Henderson - 0 views

  •  
    On June 12th, 2006 Jason Lindholm wrote an article about his Top 5 Favorite NES Games. I'm also an avid gamer and the Nintendo was my first love so I hold many NES games near and dear to my heart. Today's video game systems have more in-depth storylines and better graphics but nothing beats the old classics. I have my own top five favorite games from the Nintendo but I thought I'd also add some comments about Jason's choices also.

My Top 5 Favorite NES Nintendo Games - By Jason Lindholm - 0 views

    The NES System (Nintendo Entertainment System) is perhaps the best system ever released.  Of course this is purely a personal opinion but many others must agree.  I have nothing against the newer systems, I love my GameCube and PS2 and cannot wait for the Wii to come out (although I don't like that name) but there is something about the older systems.  It was a simpler time for gamers.

Top Ten: Best Nintendo Games - By Marco V. Scola - 0 views

    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. You are embarrassed, you are shamed. You are clearly in love with your video games.

Five Best Video Games for the Super Nintendo - By Robotstore - 0 views

    When Nintendo announced the Super Nintendo we all asked why? The NES was still king. Did we really want to spend money on a new system that would play basically the same games with slightly better graphics? And the first games released on the Super NES proved that point. A slightly more colorful version of "Super Mario" offered the same game play as it's original.
