RedWolf thought that the recent <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mgroves.com\/Contest-Name-Those-Pixels\" target=\"_blank\">Name Those Pixels<\/a> contest I ran on my blog would make a great weekly feature here at <em>Vintage Computing and Gaming<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>So welcome to the first Name Those Pixels contest, <em>VC&#038;G<\/em> edition.  The object of the challenge is to guess which video game the pixels (shown in the image to the right) come from.  If necessary, I will provide clues in the comments if no one is coming close, but based on the guesses I got the first time I did this, there are a lot of clever people out there who will get this right away.<\/p>\n<p>To play, write your guess in this post&#8217;s comments section.  The answer to this week&#8217;s challenge won&#8217;t be revealed until next week.  I only ask that if you know the answer for sure, please don&#8217;t spoil it for everyone else by linking to a full screen shot of the game.<\/p>\n<p>To start you off, here is your very first hint: this is a U.S. NES release.<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy!  &#8211;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mgroves.com\" target=\"_blank\">mgroves<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello, Matt Groves here from mgroves.com.
