Most NES games had a way of saving, except the earliest NES games.
Most of them had codes you'd type in that was a save point. Many had actual save states on the cartridge.
The earlier games got around not having a code by having a secret early on the game that was revealed later on in the game so you could skip all of the parts you previously played.
- TylerE 6y agoI wouldn't consider codes a save. They often loss state. Basically just an encoding of "start at level X with Y lives". Maybe not even lives. There were only 54 NES releases with actual, battery based saves, out of 716 officially released and licensed titles (and heaven knows how many bootlegs). So, "most" is an overbid.
- proverbialbunny 6y agoWell, most of the ones I wanted to play at least. ^_^
