If you’re a regular visitor of this blog and the rest of the Video Games Channel of b5media, then you probably already know why I’ve been gone for almost a week. If not, well, here’s a short explanation (which I also posted on my other b5media blog, MMOtaku):

Whew! What a nasty week! I won’t bore you guys with details; suffice it to say that I—and I guess a hundred or so Internet service subscribers in this little town—had a hell of a boring time with little or no Internet connection.

Well, if any good came out of the sudden loss of Internet connection, it’s probably the extra time to break out some old consoles and games and play them. And I’ve played a good number of old games on my now-dysfunctional Atari 2600, Nintendo Family Computer, and Super Nintendo Entertainment System.

I tried to make my rusty and musty Apple IIc up and running, but it’s just too old and dirty—courtesy of a family of mice that have made the computer their home. And my Coleco Telstar Arcade isn’t in any better shape, with only the Pong side running—and I’m not really in the mood for Pong or any other game that emulates tennis in some form.

So I’ve stuck to playing some of the Atari 2600, Nintendo Family Computer and Super Nintendo Entertainment System’s most beloved games, including two Star Wars games, Jedi Arena and Death Star Battle, Street Fighter, and Starfox.

Okay, that’s it for now. Stay tuned to Re:Retro for more retro-gaming goodness!
