My name is Carl, and I have just obtained a game with quite a story behind it. Maybe you&#8217;ve already heard about Zach and his NES Godzilla cartridge? I wasn&#8217;t aware of it until I saw the eBay auction, and it really grabbed my interest.<\/p>\n<p>I skimmed through the recounting of what the game supposedly did. I wasn\u2019t sure what to make of it, but something about the whole thing just captivated me, and I decided to buy the game. I thought if nothing else, I&#8217;d get a new game and a nice conversation piece. I used Buy-it-now and got it for a decent price, $10 including shipping.<\/p>\n<p>Zach sent me an e-mail and we talked for a bit. He seems like a decent guy despite being a bit loopy and dramatic. He made it clear that he was dead serious about the game being unnatural and dangerous. I still wasn\u2019t entirely convinced, but I played along.<\/p>\n<p>About myself and the game: I actually never played NES Godzilla, at least not with the actual cartridge. After I won the bid I played the game on an emulator a bit to see what it was like, and also so I could point out noticeable differences (if there were any) later on. The first 2 worlds were decent fun, but it got boring pretty quick.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not a Godzilla expert. I liked watching the movies when I was a little kid, but that was a long time ago. I hardly remember any of the monsters except for the really famous ones like Rodan and Mothra. So if the game starts throwing a bunch of obscure Godzilla related stuff at me, I might not catch it.<\/p>\n<p>And here is the game cartridge itself:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/allone-works.com\/ngc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/4c06706c61dad112420n.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-442\" src=\"http:\/\/allone-works.com\/ngc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/4c06706c61dad112420n-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"4c06706c61dad112420n\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s nothing visibly wrong with it, no weird marks or anything that would make it stand out. If it got misplaced and sorted in with some regular games, you&#8217;d never know the difference.<\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t actually started playing the game yet. I&#8217;m still in the process of hooking up the tv to the computer so I can take screencaps in the event that things get interesting. For now, here&#8217;s a photo I took of the title screen starting up:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/allone-works.com\/ngc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/titlephoto.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-459\" src=\"http:\/\/allone-works.com\/ngc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/titlephoto-300x225.png\" alt=\"titlephoto\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/allone-works.com\/ngc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/titlephoto-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/allone-works.com\/ngc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/titlephoto.png 596w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello everyone.
