    Ah the Master System! Great machine. Had a Master System 2 with Alex Kidd in Miracle World built in. Great game. Better than SMB imo. (Yeah I said it!). Just out on the Wii's VC as well.

    Mariokart on the SNES. More of a way of life than a game in itself

    I was a megadrive man. Road Rash, Mortal Kombat. Does anyone remember the Wildthing-2000 bike in Road Rash 2?

    Before that it was the C64. Long waits loading up games that I would only usually just play for a few minutes. I still remember when Creatures 2 came out, could'nt believe my c64 could do a game like that! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oc0QDlaRFeo&NR=1

    In between it was the arcades, Chase HQ, Sunset Riders, G-Lock. Ahh good times

    I had a game on the C64 called 'The Real Stunt Experts'. It was quite addictive. This is the only screenshot I could find from it:

    Brings back memories of my youth back in the early 90's! :)

    That bike was so fast I could never finish a race with it. I felt like Wiley Coyote strapping myself onto a giant firework and trying to catch the roadrunner. Seemed like a perfectly good plan at the time.

    Never saw that, and I'd have never guessed it was a C64 game. It looks more like a Megadrive or SNES graphics to be honest. I'd love to give that a play.
