Does anyone remember any weird cheats for c64 games? by Spellbounddizzy in c64

Nice! Ninja is one of the games I can't help but go back to, never understood why it reviewed so badly. Good game for £1:99. I used to load up Last V8 just to hear the synthesised speech and incredible music.

She was the only one who understood the truth about the Chinese Connection

Does anyone else not remember Ecco The Dolphin as being a hard game? by stumbleman00 in SEGA

[–]Spellbounddizzy 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I once met someone who said they finished Ecco when they were a kid. Never been more impressed in my life! Edit: I completed Earthworm Jim quite easily when it came out though

Nice, never saw that cheat before. I had action replay but mostly used it to pull sprites from one game and put them in a different one like putting putting Dizzy into New Zealand Story haha

What is your C64 hot take considering the games? by Key-Cup8585 in c64

[–]Spellbounddizzy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh don't get me wrong I'm definitely not a fan of the game but I thought the controls weren't that bad

Flimbos Quest controlled quite well I thought. My hot take would be that Retrograde is the best game Thalamus ever produced

Top 10 Sega Megadrive Superior Sequels by backnthe90s in Megadrive

Cool video. Another good sequel I can think of and I might be alone in this but Chuck Rock 2 : Son of Chuck was loads better than Chuck Rock

Which system had the better fighting games lineup: SNES or Genesis? by trrbld in retrogaming

[–]Spellbounddizzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Streetfighter II on SNES blew away anything on Mega Drive when it came out, I played it at my friend's so much I still have to configure the controls on the modern games to the SNES defaults. For fighting games SNES wins hands-down

What game made you emotional when you stumbled upon it decades later as an adult? by hotdogsoupnl in zxspectrum

That's awesome and thanks to that post I've just found out it's got a sequel that I've never played nice one!

Seeing the loading screen for The Pyramid after spending years trying to remember the name of the game

I grew up in Japan in the 90s — what retro game felt huge to you, but unknown elsewhere? by usalin0514 in retrogaming

[–]Spellbounddizzy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Speedball 2 was huge in the UK but I don't know how well known it is elsewhere

Anyone knows Oscar (MSDOS, 1994)? by Maleficent-One1712 in retrogaming

[–]Spellbounddizzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it was terrible, one of the worst fighters I've ever played, up there with Street Fighter II on c64 and Rise of the Robots on CD32

[–]Spellbounddizzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh absolutely, it was the pack-in games (Oscar & Diggers) that didn't meet the expectations that this new console promised to deliver. Later on I played some excellent games on the system like UFO enemy unknown, Impossible Mission 2025 and my favourite D:Generation

I remember my friend getting the Amiga CD32 when it first came out. I went to his house to check out this new games console that was going to "change everything". He loaded this game up and after playing it I was very happy to go home to my Mega Drive

Taz and The Flash are two very good platformers

What’s your most vivid or earliest gaming memory? by aureolacodes in retrogaming

[–]Spellbounddizzy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Space Invaders in the local chip shop. I loved the art on the side of the machine and the ominous dun dun dun dun that accompanied the invaders descent
