I've had this guy for a while and forgot to post it. Behold, the original artwork for one of NESTalgia's toughest fights, Midgard. The artwork has since been upgraded, but I sometimes prefer the earlier "less professional" sprites.
After playing for a few minutes I was hooked. It's like Dragon Warrior 2/3 on an MMO scale. Silk Games created this free, 8-Bit MMORPG. Angels flew down from heaven and played jazz on their trumpets when I opened the website.
This looks to be the game I've always wanted to play, since I was 5.
The game is relatively new, at least it's only recently gain popularity.
From the website:
"NEStalgia is an original MORPG inspired by the glory days of traditional console RPGs. Essentially "Dragon Warrior 3 meets World of Warcraft", NEStalgia is an amalgam of the best generations of RPG gaming.
"Wage classic turn based battles using a multiplayer party system, and enjoy modern trappings such as a full-featured quest system and hordes of epic loot to find. We even have a WoW-style Auction House for item trading! Close Community"
Go check out NESTalgia and we can all post our reactions and group-up or whatever we have to do form a party of Atomic Knights and kick the internet's ass at a video game.
