Yeap..... cost me a shedload of brass on release in the USA. Trip Hawkins stuffed me a good un!

Just think without Need for Speed on the 3DO, we wouldnt be playing the continued versions available now. lol

Yep.

You could change the background colour to a sortof pinky blue if you got tired of the green. It was a bit hampered by only being able to display a few colours at the same time

Donkey Kong was top of my list, but I also spent many hours playing stuff like, Cuthbert goes walkabout, Screaming Abdabs, Beanstalker, Valley etc. used to pop down to my local shop and pick up a new game for 50p every other week. Those were the days

I've had most of the regular ones as per everyone else but have slowed down recently. Still haven't got a psp but will make up for it by getting the Xbox 360 and PS3.

Another huge for the dreamcast. Brilliant piece of kit, shame it looked like a toasted sandwich maker. Shenmue was not a game, it was a lifestyle choice.

Intellivision
NES
Megadrive
Gameboy
Atari Jaguar (Original Alien vs Predator :O)
PS 1
PS 2

There were bound to be others but I cant remember them!

Always been a bit more PC orientated from a ZX81 through to my current Alienware gaming rig. Still like to have a console knocking around for the portability though, PS3 will be next!
