Couldn't wait for Wii Points Cards to come, so i just got myself 1000 points on me debit card. Got, Mario Bros...can't believe i still remember every level...all the shortcuts and everything. And Punch Out!!  Anyone remember this? Such a classic game. Each oppoent has a 'tell' which you have to dodge and then you hit him with some uppercuts. I'd recommend buying it, its a cracking little addictive game..even by-passing the great memories of playing it as a kid. What has everyone else bought? Any childhood classics? Got 4000 more points coming soon, so i'll let you know what i get! ;P

As much as I loved Mario 1....I'm waiting for Mario 3 to come out then I'm buying the controller and points and a memory card. That, Goldeneye (if they get it instead of Microsoft...) I'd also like Sunset Riders (US only game). No games at the moment are worth the points, as I've probably got all the good ones and my nes/snes under my bed. Wish they'd bring some Saturn games out like Clockwork Knight. |

Come, come, nuclear bomb...

I've got classic Sonic the Hedgehog, I still remember that and all the ways I used to die are exactly the same. Also got Streets of Rage, which is a classic beat em up side-scroller that I used to love when I was a kid. Streets of Rage 2 was released today so I might get that as well, as I've never played it. Also got Super Mario Bros. but I find that really hard, as I only played it a little when younger. Abi knows it off by heart though, the day I bought it she spent the whole day completing it, she's got 93% on it.  Finally I've got Ocarina of Time, haven't played it yet though. Pilch, I saw Clockwork Knight in a bundle with a Saturn console at Gamestation, I need to ask if they can let me have it without the console, as I loved that game too. I imagine it could be pretty funny now, but I remember being addicted to it. It was kind of creepy though, and hard. |

Just got Mario Kart 64 and Sonic...Mario Kart is awesome, great memories...prolly only worth it if you have 4 Classic/GameCube Pads really though. Still got 2200 points to spend as well.

Bought Super Mario World for SNES, but i swear not all the buttons work with the Gamecube pad...i can't pick anything up, like Shells etc, and i know there is gonna be part of a level where you have to, to get past it. GameCube pad 'Not Optimised Control', basically we've made it shit, so you have to fork out for a Classic Controller. Anywoo, t'is great fun playing these retro games. Dunno what to get with my remaining 1000 odd points: Donkey Kong Country for SNES Lylat Wars for N64 Super Mario Bros 2 and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or Exitebike |
