The google is very cool today!

St Dragon by Jaleco is good. Interesting mechanic there with the use of the Dragons tail. Hellfire - I had for MD - Didn't realise it was an Coin-Op originally and I rediscovered it. Its evil. Can't think of another SHMUP like it. Darius - I love the music, but is hard to play in MAME due to the VER...

'The Brother From Another Planet' ?

Probably not - but he's mute , lands in New York. Don't think he gets raped though...

Fixes arcade machines by touch!

I wonder if the game im desperately trying to find also originated on the BBC micro. Treasure hunt. It was amazing, a big red castle was drawn, and you got three arrows, which represented arrows, if you went right you found yourself at a small hut, and you had to do something with the jam trade it ...

Unconverted Feature was great.

Surprised Red Earth didn't get a mention.

...and Mighty Pang

Those Touchscreen Quiz machines you get in most pubs these days have 'Track & Field Cash Dash' on them. Proper Konami thing with the retro graphics. The idea is to get a certain amount of points to qualify by answering questions or playing the events based on the Old arcade game (without the button ...

Original SF2 Bison behaves differently to later incarnations due to the non-playability factor. He has the mid air kick that stays out all the way but still hits hard. And he can do multiple scissor kicks (even though getting hit by one normally means a dizzy) Jump up roundhouse can catch him when h...

Waxworks was (maybe still is) available as part of 'Elivra's Horror Pack' from The Adventuresoft Website along with the Simon games. http://www.adventuresoft.com/acatalog/Other_Adventure_Soft_games.html Says Windows 98 - but all 3 run fine through DosBox. Starting with Personal Nightmare which was a...

Not a bad list. Most of the obvious choices are there. Pretty similar to the recent RG list really...

They had a special screening of it at the National Film Theatre a few years back. Christopher Lee was doing a Q & A. It sold out straight away but the NFT does standby tickets on the night so me and a mate turned up only to find the queue out the door! We were going to go home - but 5 mins before it...

I always used to think Erin from Super Tennis on SNES was rather cute.

Fond memories of my ST which sadly died for 15 years till I bought a spare power supply off ebay and made it live again. :D Those bloody Joystick ports are a nightmare though! 1. Damocles 2. Kick Off 2 3. Microprose Grand Prix 4. Finest Hour Battle Of Britain 5. Turrican Could have had 20. Honrouble...

Its not even the first issue of Super Mario Land with the yellow cover. I like buying old sealed vinyl cos theres something special about being the 1st person to drop the needle on a 30+ year old LP... But sealed video games is not as fun. Made to be played. Most I've paid sealed is £40 for Sword o...
