I went through my super nintendo games earlier tonight and found my copy of Donkey Kong Country 2. I have fond memories of this game, I have had it since I can remember and I was 3 when it came out. Anyway I remember never being able to beat the game when I was younger, and thinking about it I never got passed the volcano world until about 4 or 5 years ago which is when I last played it and I vaguley remember getting pretty close to the end.
So I decided to play it tonight and thinking, "dam how far did I get last time"
Well I didn't have to think for long cause when I turned on the game there was the save file from all those years ago waiting for me and it looks like I made it all the way to the final boss. So I tried to play it and after an hour I STILL COULDN"T BEAT THE LAST BOSS, now I remember why I havn't played it in so long, I get to the part where he shoots out flying ghost head things and I die every time, sigh.
But it is amazing to me that after 4 or 5 years the save file was still there, pretty cool.
Anyone else have a story of finding a save file or finding a password on a scrap of paper to a game forgotten long ago?
