Dear Reader:
GoNintendo 'End of Day' thought - My Parents Play: Sonic the Hedgehog
I am quite sad right now. The NES slot on my Retron 5 has stopped working. It just won't do anything anymore. I really loved this system, but I'll be damned if all the slots weren't quite fickle. I guess I just gave the damn NES slot too much love over the years. Oh well, now I need to find another HDMI fix for my NES needs...and I'm not ready to spend $500 to do so! See you in a few, short hours.
When I asked you guys what my parents should play this week, a ton of you reminded me that we're celebrating the 25th anniversary of Sonic the Hedgehog! How could I not take my parents back to where it all started? I dug up my original Sonic the Hedgehog cart, fired up the Retron 5 and got them straight into the game! I may have busted one of my cartridge slots on the Retron 5 in the process and have been crying ever since, but damnit, the video got made!
Also, a HUGE thanks to Poopaloop for our brand new intro video! He did quite a fantastic job in my opinion!
