The thing is a huge brick, but it works nicely. The game cartridge I’m showing in the video is the GENESIS 6-PAK that contains the following classic games:

• Sonic the Hedgehog
• Golden Axe
• Streets of Rage
• Revenge of Shinobi
• Columns
• Super Hang-On

Apparently the SEGA Genesis NOMAD is really rare. I’ve seen them go for $25.00 USD to over $100.00 USD on eBay, so who really knows?

Anyway, it does have a TV out and a second controller (Player 2) port, but if you plan on connecting it to a TV, why not just use a normal SEGA Genesis?

The game offers some engaging, yet repetitive, rapid-fire submarine action. Manning a yellow sub, you must rescue lost divers being chased by sharks.

The blue divers look funny as they kick frantically with jaw-snapping sharks on their heels. You’ll also have to contend with gray submarines that fire torpedoes.

Your sub can carry up five divers at a time, and considering they are nearly as large as your sub, you wonder how they can all fit in the thing! It’s like the clown car of the ocean!

Your oxygen is limited, but that’s rarely a factor. What is a factor is the small, unassuming ship patrolling above. He looks friendly enough, but that son of a [expletive] will try to ram your ass when you surface! Bastard!!

I love Seaquest’s bright visuals and crisp controls, but its gameplay gets old in a hurry, and not necessarily due to the difficulty level. Basically it’s the extra ships you get at every 10K that water down the challenge and drag things out.

Still, Seaquest by Activision is an appealing title that gets by mainly on the strength of its good looks.

This weekend only, the Video Marketplace is giving away the full, ten-minute version of MJ’s classic “Thriller” music video for your viewing pleasure.

Yep, the greatest music video of all time is free to download until the end of the day today.

Apparently this Kiosk has two NES controllers, a Grey Zapper Light Gun and is loaded with the following 16 classic NES games:

Tennis, Baseball, Soccer, 10-Yard Fight, Golf, Wild Gunman, Hogan’s Alley, Duck Hunt, Wrecking Crew, Excitebike, Kung Fu, Super Mario Bros., Ice Climber, Pinball, Clu-Clu Land, Stack-Up

I already own the actual cartridges for the games on this NES Kiosk, but man, if I had an extra $499.00 USD laying around, I’d probably bid on this auction.

Check out the details on the eBay auction listing.

The maker, Nilesz, is running a win-a-wallet contest over on his site, which of course gives you the info on how to order one.

From his blog, it sounds like he does take mail-in requests, but you need to make sure you’re sending him something usable first.

It’d be geektastic if he could do the old Imagic cases, but the 14 he does offer – including Haunted House, Circus Atari and everyone’s favorite, E.T. – are slick enough.

Probably one of the best classic gaming emulators around, MAME now supports well over 8,099+ ROM sets and 4,191+ unique games.

Well, tonight on his show Conan addressed the accusations, saying that:

“it’s absurd — there’s no way that you could ever see Super Mario Bros. in this set.”

And then he delivered the punchline, which you can see in this clip:

Anyway, it seems like Conan staged the entire thing, but either way, it’s pretty funny — and a really cool homage to the Nintendo game.

Why? To celebrate the iconic videogame’s birthday. It was 25 years ago today (well tomorrow June 6) that Alexey Pajitnov created Tetris.

Over the past 25 years Tetris has sold over 70 million copies, and we named it the #1 game of all time in our Top 100 Games of All Time feature in EGM.

So happy birthday, Tetris. I really hope Alexey is out celebrating right now. Be sure to join the party and play a few round of Tetris in our game room.

The actual gameplay demonstration starts around 2:20 in the video.

What I’m really excited about in this game is the ability for up to 4 players to cooperatively play together in a classic Super Mario Bros setting.

We can expect the “New Super Mario Bros Wii” game to be launched in Christmas 2009. I’ll be pre-ordering for sure.

I love playing Marvel VS Capcom 2 on my Sega Dreamcast, however I’m REALLY looking forward to playing this game on my Xbox 360. The trailer looks amazing and with the addition of online multi-player, all I can say is bring it on!

Also if you have 400 Microsoft points and 197 MB of free space on your hard drive, you can now purchase and download the full game Wolfenstein 3D for your Xbox 360 via the Xbox Live Arcade:

Achtung! You are OSA super agent B.J. Blazkowicz and you must escape from Castle Wolfenstein and defeat the twisted Nazi regime! Fight all of the memorable enemies from Hans Grosse to Mecha-Hitler in the legendary game that launched the First Person Shooter genre. Search classic levels for hidden secrets that reveal stolen Nazi treasure, health packs, ammo and weapons, or even short cuts.

Wolfenstein 3D is awesome! I still own the PC version (and it works), I have the Super Nintendo version (which is totally watered down), plus I have it for my GameBoy Advance which is a full port, Nazi’s and all.

Until recently I would either play it on my Nintendo GameBoy Advance or via my GameCube using my GameBoy Player on my 32 inch TV, but now I can play it on my Xbox 360… Muhahahahaha!

Also, as reported yesterday, the original Perfect Dark for Nintendo 64 (N64) will be released soon for Xbox Live:

Agent Joanna Dark hit the ground running in Perfect Dark, an epic tale of galactic conspiracies in 2023 America. Now this classic shooter is coming to Xbox LIVE Arcade, rendered in greater definition and detail and sporting a silkier framerate than ever before. Fire up your Farsight and prepare for assignment– the Dark returns this winter.

Here’s one more cool E3 announcement:

Microsoft was kind enough to release a free Perfect Dark Xbox theme for Xbox LIVE Gold Members. Be sure to download it now.
