So I asked, “What will happen if you hook up an NES directly to a projector?”

I’ve been wondering about this since I was a kid.

Now I know the answer: it’s awesome! No input lag. You don’t have the same problem of “raw” pixels as you do on an LCD or LED. But at the same time, you don’t get the scanlines that a CRT has.

But the biggest advantage is that the light is much softer which reduces eye strain if you’re in a dark room.

Iron Sword, aka Wizards and Warriors 2. The first one was also enjoyable, but they're kind of different games.

He never dodged a goose. He took it straight to the face.

Easily the hardest of the 3. And you're right, they're all very different games from each other.
