not so much to tell here. met him back in around 2010 at a friends 2 years game bar anniversary party(was announced that he will be there).

so I brought my NAI and shooting watch(es) along with me, just so that in case if I had that pleasingly opportunity of letting him something to sign, I woulnd't just have to give him my shirts sleeve.

he was a very funny guy, and was such surprised that there are even any PC Engine fans from the swissle, let alone such hardcore ones..lol

This such a fun game, I have been playing it with my kids via the Nintendo DS Emulator "NitroGrafx". They absolutely love it (until it get the real thing this will have to do).
Looking for TG16 games I don't have already.

New Adventure Island is 

Trü storie.




NAI is top tier action. I would put it in my top 10 without hesitation.

OBEY!


Dude, where have you been? I was hoping you'd show up one of these years.

Este! :D Good to see ya!

I was in hiding. I don't know what I was hiding from, though. Lol. Maybe it was the thought of having to clear Heavy Unit. Lol.

This thread inspired me to dust off NAI last night. I gave it an hour or so and got further than I ever have in my life. (Still too embarrassed to say how far that is).
I can't say one bad thing about it. One question, are the continues unlimited?  Or does the game just know a shitty player and offer them up accordingly?

 :D

I like this game once in a while in short stints. I'm fairly good at it, but it doesn't hold my attention long enough to complete it. It gets a little repetitive for my tastes.

Ha! There's actually a code for continuing. When the game is over and it goes to the title screen u believe you hold buttons 1 and 2 and then Run at the same time. That will start you off at the beginning of the stage you were last on.

At least I'm pretty sure that is the code. It's been a while and I can't for the life of me find it on Google. So, I'm not 100%. Still kickin' off some obey rust. Hehe. :)

Ha! That sounds about right. :)

Isn't there a code that lets you continue from the same stage, though?

Every time, I get a game over, the title screen lets you continue with no code needed. I just didn't know if they were unlimited.

Ah. Yeah, I'm totally off. I would have sworn that you had to put in a code to continue. Oopsy doopsy. :D

You do.  After a game over, at the title screen, press run.   :lol:

NAI was one of my first latter-day Hucards purchased from Games To Go in '97. Great game.

Fantastic game.  In the early nineties I use to love hanging out at the mall particularly at the old TurboZone retail islands if some of you guys remember those (before they turned into TZD.com). 
TurboZone had RETAIL STANDS?! Damn.
