Actually, you're both wrong. It it's with b a b a, and it was the universal Konami code for the NES.
You're talking to one of the hardest of the hardcore NES players back in the day. When my mom moved, she filled up 3 full moving boxes with my NES games.
Now, I'm mainly not an online gamer. My consoles are my Xbox, and my Gamecube. I play action adventure, and the occasional RPG, and I'll take an exceptional first person shooter, like the Halos.
I traded in my PS2 to EBGames because it was graphically inferior to the Nintendo 64, and the games coming out for it were basically 3-4 hour campaigns at most. The true gamer's system is the Gamecube, for the time being.
We'll see what the 360 (I have the loaded system on pre order), the PS3, and the Revolution have to offer once they're all on the table.
Oh yeah, my favorites for the NES were the original Legend of Zelda, and Bionic Commando (Come on, what Jew doesn't want to blow the living crap out of Hitler?).
