hehe I grew up with both of these characters and loved both of them. I used to watch the cartoons and collect the sonic comics lol. Both games were awesome although I could never finish them lol. But if i had to choose it would be sonic, he was heaps cool.

So many classics.. I want to buy a NES but they are more expensive than a freakin' Playstation 1 at Video Games Heaven! Argh!!

Mario all the way, even has funky muzak.

BTW, X Rated, you can now run all NES games on a piece of software called MAME. If you've got an old PC kicking about with a video card, then you could hook it up to the TV and have the entire Nintendo library at your fingertips.

I still have my Master System II. I think I also got Prince of Persia, Wimbledon, and a couple of other games.

I always wanted California Games!!! I played it at a friends place and her brother wouldn't let me borrow it, even though I lent him PoP.

Now I have a PS2, and about a dozen games I hardly play. I get so far and then get stuck and give up playing because I get frustrated.

Did do know you can get USB converters which let you plug in your old controllers and then use them with emulators?

Or most emulators will work with normal controllers, I'm more then happy playing games on my PS2 style USB game controller, and it has all the buttons required for a close-enough-to-perfect SuperNES 'feel' ;)

Still got my mega drive II, works fine.

I also bought a multi version copy of sonic on X-Box the other day. I also have a Sonic tie as well with sonics all over it. Great fun and an easy to play game.

Mario. No contest.

Wife didn't want the games stuff crowding the living room, so:

GAMES ROOM: Game Boy, Super Game Boy (adaptor for SNES), NES, SNES, Nintendo 64, Game Cube, Playstation, Playstation 2, X-box, Amiga CD32 (if anyone remembers this system that never took off). Countless games to match :nutsycuck Oh, and notice- No Sega crap They now work for Nintendo last time I heard... :hihi:

Still - don't feel it will be complete till I track down an Atari :

If you're going to have a collection like that, make sure it includes an Atari 400 or 800, and the "Star Raiders" cartridge - the very first 3D space combat game. Trust me, it's worth the effort...

PS. I remember the CD32, I used to have one of those too - have you got Roadkill for it?
