Since an amazingly generous commenter got me this amazing toy, I've been able to play this obscure, forgotten, oft-maligned game that I so enjoyed when I was young. And you know what? It's really hard! (That's what she said.) My boyfriend thought I kept dying and couldn't even pass the first level because I was drunk, but further sober attempts have humbled us both. If anything hits you, you totally die. If you step on a level when it's only a little bit under water, you totally die. And then it's back to the beginning of the level for you! You have only your yo-yo for defense, and the power you pick up from collecting scrolls. If you manage to pass, you have to face a Noid of a different Noid race in a pizza-eating contest, and the other Noid talks mad smack. Apparently, this game takes place in New York -- which makes sense, because I know I grew up around a lot of hockey-stick-wielding polar bears. All these things considered, I cannot stop playing this game. Oh Noid, I missed you!RATING: 67%

Coincidentally, I too grew up in a land plagued by polar bears wielding hockey sticks.
What are the chances?
In Canada 75% of the bears pay high taxes and the other 25% stay home drunk, so they're all pretty mean.
@Loco,
You need email me. Apparently you have all the dirt on the lit-mag world.
I have all the dirt on every world, Andrew. I am a fortress of slimy gossip.
And (not) Brent, I don't think my boyfriend would be at all upset... not least because he has also spent a good deal playing Silver Surfer.

Nah, it's a translation issue. He's living in a foreign country now.
Silver Surfer? Wow! Speaking of insanely hard games!!
I've gotta hand it to NES games... they do often have the most random villains ever. Remember the (also insanely hard) first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game? Fire-Guy, Crazy-Robot-With-Flying-Head-Guy, Bomb-Dropping-Balloon-Guy, Chainsaw-and-Ugly-Face-Guy, the list goes on. Hockey stick wielding polar bears are among my favorites, though.
Glad you're having fun!
