Open channel3.gg in Chrome. Click the Install icon in the right side of the address bar:
Click Install when you get this prompt.
After installation, you can pin to the Windows taskbar alongside your other favorite apps.
Open channel3.gg in Safari. It has to be Safari.
Tap the Share button in the middle of the footer.
Tap Add to Home Screen.
Tap Add on the prompt.
BOOM. You're done. iPhones try to act like it's "just a website bookmark" because they want everyone to go through the App Store but really it functions just like an app... Full screen, moveable icon on your home screen. All of it.
Enjoy.
Install the Channel 3 app from the Google Play Store.
After playing through it again for a quest here, I was reminded how much I really enjoyed it. Zelda games are fun, but this one has more replay-ability I think.
This came down to six games and it was so hard to decide. I think this game just wins because there was a summer where basically four of us cousins lived at the family farm with grandma and this got p...more
Tough to choose just one, but Battletoads was the most entertaining and unique one to play either by yourself or with a friend. Just watch out for the friendly fire and try to make it past turbo tunne...more
This was definitely one of my favorites and probably one of the few I actually played through and beat with my elementary school friends…lots of great memories with Kirby!
Maybe not my favorite, but definitely most nostalgic. My great grandma purchased a NES for the grandkids to play at her house when I was a wee lad. Wheel of Fortune was the first game she had and th...more
This was the second NES game I ever beat, and probably the one game I will always be proud of beating. Didn't even use the Konami code, only because I just learned about it a couple of years ago. Youn...more
Spent so many hours at my friend Joseph's house playing "Regular Nintendo" (it wasn't Super...) and this game was in constant rotation. The music still gets stuck in my head.
I really could and do play this game over and over and over through the years. @mtvremotecontrol is a close 2nd (not really but I think this helped shape my love of trivia).
I still play this game regularly to keep my skills sharp. Some of my oldest friends and I still settle debates using RBI baseball as our weapon of choice.
I’m a bigger fan of the Zelda series and appreciate the Zelda NES games a lot, but in my opinion a lot of the earlier Mario games aged better than earlier Zelda games.
Hard to pick in this category with games like The Legend of Zelda, Final Fantasy, Dragon Warrior, SMB, Ninja Gaiden, and Castlevania...but this game just hit so many points to games I love.
I played this game to the point to where I could beat it without losing a single life. The second level running down the hallway was so cool. It was like you were running into the TV rather than the t...more
This is the only game I have memories of playing as a kid, mainly bc of the plastic gun and the shooting of ducks. Couldn’t believe such a game existed 😂
I wanted to give a unique answer, instead of the right answer, but just doesn’t seem fair to the Italian plumber in his aggressively attractive tanooki suit.
This was near the end of the NES's cycle and pushed the NES's capabilities. It is hard to believe that SMB and SMB3 were on the same system.
This game is known for the tonooki suit, but I when ...more
How to pick... Super Mario 3... Zelda 2, Contra...so many great games and so many memories. My kids asked me the other day which I liked better Mario or Zelda, so my choice here is based on that respo...more
There can be only one answer!
A vast improvement on the original (the less said about SMB2 the better) - challenging but not punishing, superior and varied level design, and enjoyable items (especial...more
