  • Stellar OP Eric.
    Come with g if you want to live...

    'Tis indeed. It's also the first time I've seen Reserved put to proper use.

    Lists are a bit wrong, but. Moot's pretty right about the 16s.

    Scampi Fries. Nice 'n' Spicy Nik Naks.

    VB list would be great Retro...

    I can only judge what I've played so two of the VBs best (Jack Bros and Wario Land) are missing.

    1. Mario Clash
    - decent 3D reimagining of Mario Bros. but that's the problem, nothing Super about this
    2. Teleroboxer
    - ok but makes me wish I was just playing Punch Out!!
    3.  Mario Tennis
    - solid but to basic to be great
    4. Galactic Pinball
    - solid pinball game
    5. V Tetris
    - Tetris is kinda the best game ever but whats the point of it on a VB?
    6. Bomberman: Panic Bomber
    - standard Tetris/Columns clone, ok
    7. Golf
    - golfs cool but this is bare bones, just 18 holes
    8. Vertical Force
    - 2D shooter with two separate planes with simple parallax for 3D effect, ok
    9. Virtual League Baseball
    - far to simplistic and I don't really like baseball but ok I guess
    10. Red Alarm
    - with Teleroboxer has the most potential but without textures you can't tell if your flying into open space or a wall so its pretty unplayable imo

    We should also force @davyK in to a Top 10 Tetris games. Nice to see the random top 10s included at the end there, really nice OP 10/10.

    Thanks for the Virtual Boy list Retro, I'll add those tomorrow. Now if Reg posted his too...

    Loving the graphic on my ramblings, Eric. Top work.

  • Ha ha! Like I said it was a slow day. I tried to find the original image to get the full lolly but was at a loss as to who/ what it is. Is it Will Quack Quack?

    No. It's from a rather odd source:

  • I might annoy you @eric and do some more top 10s.

    I didn't submit GBA, PSP or DS. I can definitely muster up 10 for each of those.

    Adding my voice to this - top job, mate.
  • In a bizzare twist of fate, I've just been given two lesser-spotter multipacks of these babies:

    I seem to remember Brannigans Gammon and Pineapple back in the 90s. They were aces. I suspect this is the replacement.
    Holding the wrong end of the stick since 2009.
  • Best Before 180692 Did you get them from Primark?
    Live, PSN & WiiU: Yippeekiyey
  • They were presented to me in a Primark bag by a kindly colleague who'd heard me moaning about the lack of readily available Brannigans recently, after I'd walked 1/4 of a mile to a sweet shop to pay 85p for a packet of RB&M flavour.  Aparently the mutipacks were ONE POUND IN A POUND SHOP, and her mum's getting me the other flavour next week.  There was a cream cheese & chive flavour back in the mid-90s too.
  • And Mint and Lamb. The beef and mustard flavour is still great but I find the quality of the potato has declined over the years, they have become a little hard/over crisp for my liking.

    I am currently enjoying Marmite crisps, lots of flavour.

    EDIT: Updated Virtual Boy list

  • I put this in the retro thread but then remembered we had this.
