I mentioned this to some friends this week and one of them pulled out the new Droid phone, where he had some Nintendo games running in an emulator.  It’s interesting how yesterday’s games that pushed the limits of technology and cost a premium are now just nostalgic distractions you can carry around in your pocket.

It’s cool that classic games can be played on all kinds of platforms today, but it just doesn’t beat the real thing.  There is something special about the clicking sound the gun trigger makes on Duck Hunt, blowing on cartridges and not being able to save your game.
