Creating games in C++?
I have no idea where to start. I want to create NES style games and i don't see the graphics being a problem but more or less the code. I have some experience in Javascript because i took it in college and have been teaching myself a little C++ and find them similar in some ways. I understand how it works, but really don't know where to begin. I'd like to do games like Ice Hockey and Mario, though i do think Ice Hockey would be harder. Any tips on where to get started would be appreciated, thanks!
You'll definitely want to work with a game engine of some sort, to handle all the graphics complexities and let you get to the coding.
I recommend you begin with 2D. The SDL library is a great way to start.

It's quite a bit simpler than the big 3D APIs, and it works on all kinds of OSs and hardware.
Since you already know some C++, that's a fine place to start. You might also consider other languages too (Python is my personal favorite for game programming) The language isn't really as important as getting a lot of experience programming.
Start with very simple games. They get complex in a hurry.

Okay so on the Wii there is this offer for a free 500 point NES game. I made a list of the possible games I would play. Help me choose one:
Super Mario (1, 2, or 3)
Legend of Zelda
Pac Man
Mega Man (1, 2, or 3)
Metroid
Final Fantasy
Ghost 'n Goblins
Ice Climber
Kid Icarus
Donkey Kong
Ballon Fight
Bubble Bobble
Castlevania
I really can't decide...
I would so choose legend of zelda a link to the past, it is my fave old school game other that ocarina of time and majora's mask, if you are able to get majoras mask or ocarina of time i would get them but i don't know how much they cost, i forget..... ^_^'
So the 2 best zelda games for the wii that you can buy off the shop channel are majora's mask and ocarina of time. =) hope i helped!
