ZORBAS SHUFFLEPUCK PC

I know you can get a lot of old games through the 'Mini' systems, and Virtual Consoles on the Nintendo line, but there's something about having that physical media, am I right? I remember the days of renting or borrowing games from friends with great fondness. My current line-up of systems is a Retron 3 (NES, SNES (and Super Gameboy), and Genesis), a Wii (Gamecube and Wii), a PS2, and a 2DS.

In between, I played a lot of PC games also. I had friends with Genesis, Playstation, and others, but Nintendo is where my heart is. Getting back to my roots means NES! My first system was an NES, and I didn't get another system until a Gameboy Advanced, so Nintendo is my lineage.

However, at the time, I didn't recognize how special they were. Pacman) and the Commodore 64 and Apples at school. My first gaming experiences were my Grandmother's 2600 (she loved Mrs. I've played some MMOs, but due to my schedule, tend to go solo. I like casual games, RPGs, games that are fun, not necessarily hard-core. Thanks to Bing (Yes, Bing!) I found this site. I recently started going back to my gaming roots, and wanted to find a forum to learn and discuss. I go by Maruko Tenada online (Games, Twitch, etc.) and I'm from Pennsylvania, USA. All in all, it's a definite 4.Hi, I'm Mark. The fast games are pretty tense though and you'll find yourself playing 'just one more game' quite often.

The gameplay can get a little tedious, because it takes quite some time to earn fifteen points, even against the weaker opponents. The sound is limited to speaker bleeps, which is adequate for this type of game. Nevertheless, your opponents are a colorful bunch. The 16 color EGA is better then the monochrome ones from the old Apple II I rembemer, but not as pretty as those on the Amiga. Each one has a certain amount of talent and some even have special tricks with which they might surprise you. Watch out though, 'cause some aliens tend to cheat a bit. First one to score 15 points by making his of her opponent miss the puck, wins the game. From the startup screen you simply click on your desired opponent to start a match against them. In Shufflepuck Café you have to become the champion by beating the current one, a greasy pig called Biff Raunch. The puck is more or less floating on the table due to a thin layer of air that's being blown over the surface (hence the 'air' in air-hockey). Both players have a paddle and use this to direct a puck all over the place. This is sort of like those air-hockey tables you might know from arcade halls. All they do is hang around and compete against each other in the game called Shufflepuck. What's the deal in 'Shufflepuck Café?' Well, there's this café filled with a bunch of weird aliens (it might even be located in Mos Eisley on Tatooine, but this information is not available). Thank heavens it was released on other platforms as well (such as Atari, Amiga and of course, DOS) because Apple II's are hard to come by these days. If you have to summarize this game in one sentence it would be 'Air hockey against aliens!'.

He had a little game on the thing however, which I was particularly fond of. Back then, I was not very impressed by the monochrome (and puny) display the thing had and I seriously mistrusted the mouse, because I was used to nice 16 colors, joysticks and big TV's from my own C64. When I was 12 years old, my father's neighbor had bought an Apple II.
