heh... i just got it because i was the first one here.... i don't know this next one... but i'm guessing it has something to do with greek myths n stuff, so i'm guessing its Hercules? lol
 
nope,. sorry,... good try, but, wrong answer.

BTW,.. if ANYONE can hum the Dr. Mario theme song from the TV commercial,.. I'll award a bonus point.
 
Kid Icarus?

...witch doctor, and then he shrunk my head... (theme song to Dr. Mario)

I remember getting addicted to that the first year I went away to college (those pre-'net and PSX days).
 
Very good pupik,... Kid Icarus it was. But,.. thats not exactly the song I was looking for. You have the right commercial,.. but I'm looking for the obviuos 'catchy tune' that they sing through-out it. I'll give the answer eventually,.. but I know someone knows what I'm thinking of :)

Here's the next one:

:lol:,. yeah,.. not eager to admit it,.. but I still bust out the ol NES and plug er in. I still have to blow into the front of the cartrages to get the game to play right ROFL! :lol: In fact, I have 3 NES systems stored away in my closet along with probably 50 games still, LOL :)


I'm off to lunch,.... new one will post in an hour if someone gets the gun one....

Also,.. still waiting on the Dr. Mario theme song :D
 
I dug out the Atari recently and played Pitfall, Space Invaders, Donkey Kong and Frogger. I have to admit it gets old pretty fast.
