I've gotten nostalgic for old games recently. Been thinking about the original Zelda on NES, all the mario games especially Mario 64, obv Ocarina of time too, and wishing I hadn't lost all my old systems. I had NES, Super NES and Nintendo 64 and they all got lost over the years as I moved from place to place. I had always planned to replay those games cause I beat them originally with my brother and there were sections he played without me, plus they're all just a great time. I'm pretty upset with myself for losing all of those games and systems.
I've decided that my first splurge once I become a "baller" is gonna be on buying all of those old systems and games.
But for the mean time I was at my dads house this weekend and found my brothers old game cube and sitting with it was the newest Zelda! I played it with him but he beat at least half of it while I was off doing other shit so now I've restarted it from the beginning. The most awesome part is that I got my GF to play with me and she's digging it, so we've been doing Zelda sessions over the last few days! It's a lot of fun to play together and I'm excited to beat the entire thing with her.
We've also been watching Lost since xmas. Since the 27th of December we've watched all but the last 3 episodes of season 4. So that's like 4 seasons in 2 weeks. We've done some serious marathons. We watched the first season in about 40 hours (had to take breaks to eat and sleep, hehe). We're gonna finish season 4 tonight most likely. Then we don't plan to watch any more lost till season 5 is over so that we can power through. I can't imagine watching lost 1 episode at a time and waiting a week to see what happens next.
Other good news is that I hit 100k FPP this morning and bought my bonus. I was at 99,600 FPP when I went to bed tonight so I got up this morning and did a quick session to get the last 400 FPP and buy the bonus as soon as I hit 100k to make sure I took the least time necessary to clear it. I need to get 10,500 base FPP and I can't remember if 1 base fpp = 1 vpp or if it's a bit better than that. I hope that's note the case though cause if I gotta get another 10,500 VPP then I don't think I'll clear this till the end of the month, and I was hoping to take no more than 1 week.
Overall things are quite good! BR is up to 4.8k and hopefully I can heater it up a bit and get up to 6k soon. We'll see.

the online stuff? I found some shit online but I couldn't save the games. Like I played zelda but if I closed the browser I'd have to start from the beginning again.
also for NES and super NES a keyboard works, but for Nintendo 64 I want my weird backwards W with a joystick! |

nah emulators are usually a piece of software you install(although theres a nes emulator online which u were talking about).
then u need roms(games) you load into the emulator to play.
easiest way should be to just grab a emulator pack from a torrent site, theres quite a few packages with huge rom collections.
and playing via keyboard totally blows for any kind of console game, just get a usb gamepad/gamepads |

Zelda is my favourite game series of all time. If you don't want to play the emulated versions then you could buy a Wii and most of the Zelda games are available in the virtual console section (should be like $5-$15 each I dont know the US prices) |

the systems arent very expensive now you can probably be set with 1bi
Also, 24 is great for binging on too. I finished season 1 in 26hr span, not healthy at allllll
and base FPPs mean VPP |
