Played "Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins" on the Game Boy (original monochrome unit) the other day. Still a very nice game, pushing the hardware to the limit.

That seems unlikely.

well to be honest i think its a bit like centerpeide and asteroids, its pretty awesome tough (if you get the controls set up right (or even better if you have a dual anolog pad) try it for your self.

| Bumping the thread up... A long time ago when I was a wee lad I had a C64...still have it in the loft. Although most of the games seem to have disappeared, which is a shame. I had two games which I'd like to get hold of again; although in two minds. They always say to never relive old memories. Anyway, the first game was sort of like The Sims; some guy with blonde hair that lived in a two story house with his dog. You had to feed yourself, watch tv, go in the shower and all the usual crap that happens on games like this. Can't remember what it was called though...hopefully someone might know? Also, another game where you were a robot, basically strolled around through what looked like an office block...bit of a vague memory though. Any ideas?

Number one is Little Computer People, by Activision. And number two would be, at a guess, Paradroid.
Getting back on topic, I'm currently playing Rainbow Island (C64), Yoomp! (Atari 8-bit), BeTiled (ZX Spectrum) and Star Sabre (Amstrad CPC)... and Delta (C64).
Regards,
Shaun.
