That's the only version that matters. All the updated versions they have try and made are terrible.
 
Wow. You guys all seem to have beaten me to the punch. Just seeing the title made me feel all nostalgic. I can't recall which grade it was, but I think it was anywhere from the 3rd to 5th grade where we actually got designated time out of class to play this game on the computers. I don't remember much about it, but I always thought it was strange playing this game was like some kind of assignment.

I liked II. Sequels after that though...
 
My friends and I used to play the Apple IIGS version in 5th grade along with Word Munchers and Number Munchers. I agree with a previous poster that the new versions werent as fun but if I can find this for around $5, I'd probably buy it.
 
It would be awesome if this were actually a good update of the original which was a classic. But between the price point and having heard nothing about the game (as if the Nintendo websites out there have so many games to be covering this year to not have time to write about this), I have a feeling it may be a poorly made cash in on the name. But I'd love to be completely wrong.

Number Munchers rocked!

I also remember a pizza deliver game on like alien planets or something, where you had to use fulcrums, and lever & pulley systems in order to make your deliveries.

Edit: Also the Incredible Machine was cool.

Edit2: The game I'm thinking of is "Special Delivery."

[quote name='jedi_liz']release date on a Friday? *raises eyebrow* Aren't release dates usually a Tuesday?[/QUOTE]

Usually, but a company can release something whenever they want. Nintendo traditionally releases on a Sunday, and Skyrim was released on a Friday.
 
[quote name='creatureofwar']So how many people remember having to play in on one of the green monitors?[/QUOTE]


This guy!

remember folks, fording the river is ALWAYS a good idea. :lol:
 
I've been pretty excited about this, but considering who developed it, I think it will be a big letdown. Still, I'm hopeful.

Ditto. II is actually my favorite and I still play it from time to time. I do like the DSiWare remake of the original quite a bit too, though.
