Any one here remember:

Manic miner?

Yie ar Kung-Fu? (i know kung foo! heh)

R-Type? (i forget the name it had in the usa)

Ghouls and Ghosts?

Rainbow Islands?

Xenon?

and the Dizzy series?

Or am i just a nostalgic geek / old git?

Kung Fu and R-type kicked serious a** on the NES!

any of you remember the Colecovision?

One of the best gaming boxes out there...classic!

=Drew

R-Type and Xenon were cool but I hated Ghouls and Ghosts .

dont know the others .

i had Dizzy (the egg) for the mega drive, best game ever i could be sat there forever

i remember all those

what was that other 1337 fighting game from way back then International Karate + or something like that

on the bonus levels u had to kick away bombs and stuff

yes it was international karate + released in 1988 for comodore 64 omfg i was like 7 back then and still 1337

personally, i'd like to add that i used to enjoy "Miner 49er" game on my father's old Texas Instruments P.O.S. Playing that sure does bringup memories of long hours wasted in front of the monitor...which btw was $10 away from being mono-chromatic.

I remember R-type from gameboy.. was ight...

yay.. manic miner 0wned j00's when amstrad was num. 1
