Top 5 NES Games I'll Keep Forever
Some games are just so good, so nostalgic, and so (relatively) inexpensive, that - like a time capsule or childhood keepsake - I'll keep them long after the rest of my collection is gone. I snipped a smaller "skit-only" version of the video for social media, but this is the "full" version…
