Yesterday I posted about finding Nintendo NES Pirate Treasure and promised to take some pictures of my personal collection of Nintendo goodness.

Well moments ago I took the following pictures. I hope they bring you lots of happy childhood memories.

Here is a picture of the Nintendo 8-bit console system:

Of course I have the original grey Zapper light gun for games like Duck Hunt, Hogan’s Alley and Barker Bill’s Trick Shooting:

This is a photo of the original Nintendo controller. I have two of these but only took a picture of one of them:

Nintendo was really ahead of their time with the Power Pad. People didn’t get it back in 1985 but now with games like Dance Dance Revolution (DDR), it makes perfect sense.

Here is a picture of side A of the Power Pad which doesn’t seem to get used much:

Here is a picture of side B of the Power Pad which is really good for games like Eggsplode, Short Order and World Class Track Meet:

For those of you who didn’t like figuring out how to win a game or didn’t know the famous Konami code, there was the Game Genie to save the day.

As you can see, I also have the complete manual with every possible cheat code at the time of printing:

Here are four boxes I have filled with all sorts of Nintendo games. At the bottom of this post, I will list all of the game titles.

All of the games have the black dust covers and some still have instruction manuals:

What would a Nintendo post be without a picture of the classic Super Mario Bros. and Duck Hunt game up and ready to be played?

I do have the original AC power adapter and RF/TV connector too but I didn’t think a picture was needed of those.

For anyone wondering what games I have in those four boxes above, I’ve made a plain text file with a complete list in alphabetical order. Download it here.
