Or what about the old Sinclair ZX spectrum 'rubber keys' , cassette gaming :cool:

I remember Horice goes skiing, what a game :laugh:

Probably sounding older than I am now :coffee:

I used to put the cassette tape in and leave it to load while i was at school so it would be ready to play when I got home :cool:

OMG the depression i experienced after waiting 15 mins for a game to load and then it crashing!! Fav games from memory were stunt racer, disco dan, nigel mansells GP and hunt for red october. The other bad boy was the commodor 64! Rambo first blood, Top Gun and football manager!! happy days.

i started on the atari 2600 with games like keystone capers, dodgems, and pole position

still a mad fan of retro gaming, my favourite being the badboy of the early 90s, my neo geo aes, this was way ahead of its time where the games were direct exact copies of the arcade versions, art of fighting, king of fighters anyone? they still make games for it today nearly 20 years after it launched :)

yes mate thats right, the rare ones these days can command over 1k on ebay

its a proper bad boy tho, it was the first console to have a slot for a memory card and a meaty arcade style joystick came as standard

i want a pc engine next tho, thats also a beast!
