I wonder how i beat Ninja turtles on NES as a kid sometimes. However i then go back and play games like contra and beat them as an adult and wondered why i had so much trouble without the code as a kid. I know one thing is i had a lot more patience as a kid, but even recently I have brought out my inner kid and beaten castlevania on NES and all of the ghouls and ghosts games which is no easy task.
currently playing: Skyward Sword, Mario Sunshine, Xenoblade Chronicles X
