  1. It was pretty much every game I tried frogger space invaders 2 gorf,galaga
  2. All working now. Really good fun.One small thing though if you put more than one coin in seems to default to 2 player game. I realize this is probably a long way away but live top scores would be a really good feature.
  3. all i can say is wow. I am using a xbox joypad and it seems to work although one button brings up the config menu. The section of frogger are rotated the wrong way but the other games that i played were fine. Will give it a proper look at soon. Thanks for doing this.Love the domed effect
  4. There is no point to them as such but there seems to be a market for all these types of consoles and computers its not just about the games its more about recapturing a bygone time.I never owned an amiga so it doesn't do anything for me though I have played the games on amiga emulator.The nostalgia market is there to be milked.I am bit of a game and watch fanboy mostly because I could never afford them as a child so I have bought the 2 that nintendo have bought out albeit in the sale.I have played them both once but I am happy to have them as well as several bought on ebay years ago before prices went stupid.I am still looking for flagman to complete the silver series set but impossible to find at a sensible price
  5. Not sure how this game managed to dodge my attention its literally on every system.Fun game though.
  6. Very interesting had no idea such a system existed.There were only 4 games released for it as you said and defender is by far the best.For its time its very good. Played it on a standalone emulator and did display 10000 so not sure why it didn't on your system.Anyway good find .Thanks for sharing.

    Batty / Spectrum

    One of my favourite spectrum games .I did get it free with the magazine back in the day which was considered a steal as it was also available for sale.I think I still have the tape in my big box of spectrum stuff which every time I think of sorting out a lethargy comes over me.
  8. Will a handheld ever be made and or a way of incorporating it into a laptop.As it stands for me its way too expensive for the extra grunt it gives compared to software emulation.
  9. Good playable game does have joystick support though doesn't give you the option .If you jump underneath the blue block it sort of blocks the path not sure whether that is a help or a hindrance. Keep em coming

    Smash TV / SNES

    Low hanging fruit this one.I expected it to feature sooner or later.Had the lcd pocket handheld version back in the day.Must get the vcr at all costs !!!.arcade version slightly more fluent than the snes conversion.
  11. Enjoyed both videos . The crash was just one of those things that happens very annoying but we have all had them with actual hardware nevermind emulation programs.Those big bonuses appear on several levels.(i had a look on a walkthrough video).Quite an addictive game that will be on my playlist every so often.I am an expert in blowing myself up especially when i am looking for the door ,having done the hard work,in fact the bonus of extra fire doesn't necessarily make it easier.Also annoying that the level restarts when you lose a life but on the plus side the extra powers remain.

    Lode Runner II

    Another one that was our pleasure and your pain.Very annoying that at losing a life it starts the level again.
  13. Would you adam and eve it a game I used to play back in the day.When this came out it was controversial though its very tame by today's standards. It was difficult to control but a lot of fun.Nice video.
  14. Another one I haven't heard of seems an advanced version of the earlier gta games.Looks fun maybe will pick it up in a steam sale.
  15. Nice simple fun game.Hope you sort out your toothache.I can sympathize with that.Nightmare trying to get an appointment.
  16. This video was definitely our pleasure and your pain.I played this when serene suggested it and the video played out exactly as I thought it would. Well done for getting to stage 2 I didn't manage it ha ha and I won't be trying again. I did look at one of those long play videos and the guy admits to using stops and starts in making it and it looks like he slowed the enemy down so I would say its fairly impossible to do.

    Tengai / Mame

    Thanks for doing it.I thought the game looks absolutely stunning -not that you get much time to look at it.Glad you enjoyed it.
  18. very well done game.Is there a way of downloading it rather than having to buy a cartridge.I think the key to that last stage is to ignore the robot things and go after the soldier.
  19. I mean the first one.
  20. played it for a bit with multiple continues still can't work out exactly how it works.It is very good that you play such diverse games.I don't know if you have heard of a game called Tengai on mame but I think that would be worth doing.
  21. Enjoyed the video i must say more than the game.There are better games now that do the same thing .For some reason i am irritated that there is no speedo and the navigation map is just horrible during a race.Also on the pc version that i have you can't turn off the webcam within the game and turning it off within settings causes the game to go to desktop after almost every race.Whilst everything doesn't have to be unlocked i am not a fan of games where you only get one car to start with.Not everyone is able to sink hours into a game.Some people just want a diversion for 20-30 mins here and there but at least the map is fully open.That said I am not the target age group for this game and its free on ea play so not a big deal either way.
  22. Nice game.I am curious though why you picked this particular game from the 30 or so entries.
  23. I have been meaning to download this for years on the pc.Will have a bash later.
  24. Interesting game excellently played.Well beyond my skillset.
