What a thriving UK Nintendo scene. I can't handle the excitment. Where
are you, all in the Sega conference methinks ? 8^)

| 714.2 | Here's one! | KERNEL::LOAT | Bored...bored........BORED!!!! | Wed Jan 15 1992 07:39 | 11 |

Well, here's another UK Nintendo fan.
Only got a GameBoy, I'm afraid, but it's a start!
You'd be surprised how many people don't even know that this conference
exists!

| There are more. My eldest son has a Gameboy, my youngest an NES. Having said
that, we're having to fight off the neighbourhood from borrowing the games
they play with all the time!!!

And another.....
I bought my NES a year ago with SMB II. Great game, but I haven't had
the time to get further than the end of world 5. I also have Rad Racer,
Life Force and SMB I, the latter being given to me fairly recently so
I'm concentrating on this when I have the time.

Anybody know if you can rent games in the Reading UK area. I've found a
video shop that rents Sega games (pfftt!) but not Nintendo.
|
| 714.11 | Please?!?!?! | KERNEL::LOAT | Bored...bored........BORED!!!! | Wed Jan 29 1992 09:09 | 8 |
|
Tony, where is this shop? Reading? I'[ve been looking for somewhere
that rents Sega (Mega-Drive) carts for *ages*!
So, spill the beans, please.
Steve.

| 714.12 | Think its... | IW::WARING | Simplicity sells | Wed Jan 29 1992 15:54 | 5 |
| I think it's Blockbuster Video - the one with no car parking inside 100 yards -
on the Oxford Road. Just outside the "Broad Street Mall" - which used to be
called something i'd never mention in front of american viewers!

| Hello fellow Nintendo-noters in the UK, I have a question or two for
you:
Is there any good mail order stores in the UK that would be willing
to sell and deliver Nintendo games to somebody abroad (Finland)?
How much do the Nintendo games normally cost in the UK?
I ask this becouse the games here Finland are so extremely expensive
that I think it might be worth it getting them from there via mail
order.

| I've just dug my Gameboy out of retirement, it's been living in a box
in the loft since moving house last year. So far, I only have 2 games,
Tetris and Choplifter II. My wife is addicted to Tetris so I hardly get
a look in, however, as my interest has been rekindled, I am curious
about available games. Are there any good adventure types around? Is
the Star Trek game any good?
Thanks in advance
Nick.

I noticed that this notes file had not been used for a whille so decided to start it up again.
We live in Basingstoke but my dad will soon be based at the cresant. I have for my nintendo super mario
brothers 1, 2, 3 and have completed them all. I have legend of zelda, snake rattle and roll, duck Hunt ,
gyromite, excite bike and many others. I am willing to trade any games so send me a note in the notes
file.
