Although I'm guessing most of the kiddies here would do poorly. I feel old.
You know your hexadecimal output routine is broken when it displays the character 'G'.

that thing is messed up...I put in Mario for #5 and it said 'Wrong: Mario'...
same with Zelda and Metroid...

WOW, how did I miss metroid. I got Zelda 2, Contra, Duck Hunt, Metal Gear, Ice Climber, Battletoads on a lucky guess, Kirby's Adventure, Willow, and Wizards and Warriors 2. Wizards and Warriors 1 is one of my favorite games. I would play that with my older brother for hours. :( good times...

I didn't recognise any.
That said, if they did a Beeb one I'd probably do pretty well.

Well looks like I got 8... Contra, Ninja Turtles, Ninja Gaiden (which I kept spelling wrong so I had to google it), Kirby's Adventure, Duck Hunt, Metal Gear, Zelda 2, Double Dragon. He he gotta love the NES although I wanted to see Mega Man but I guess its hard to pick a screen shot everyone remembers.

WTF...I love how when you put in the correct answers ie Mario, Metroid, Zelda, Grasp it says you have it wrong, but it looks exactly like the answer given! :D (I wont give the #'s away, so that way people can still take the test without cheating! :twisted: )

I got:
-Kirby's Adventure
-Contra
-Metal Gear (If you missed that, shame on you!)
-TMNT
-Duck Hunt (Again, if you missed that!)
It shoulda gave me:
-Mario
-Metroid
-Zelda
-Grasp

Damn them! I shoulda had 9! :wink:

What is the Wolf one (I've played that game before)...and the last one all the way at the bottom right corner with the chickish shemale type of thingy? I used to have that game...you would go around and whip the baddies with your hair and I think you could punch/kick...

If you got it wrong, it just says Wong: '<what you put>', not the correct answer.

WooHoo! 10 right out of 40 that's, 25%... nevermind. :)
Isn't #20 "Adentures of lolo?", and I know I've played #31 before.
