So this sounds kind of stupid but Home Alone is one of the main reasons I got a game gear and started collecting for it. I’m a pretty big fan of the 16bit Genesis/Mega Drive version. The Game Gear version is almost the same game with just a few tweaks made for the 8bit version. The music takes a big step back, the houses have slightly altered layouts, the old house has a different hazard, you can find traps in snowmen outside. Basically the same game, pretty much just as fun, just slightly altered for the less powerful machine with a smaller screen resolution

Those are all interesting ideas but just like mine there’s always some kind of catch. either cost, space or appeal. The final one you showed looks great but it is the problem of cost/time to make. I guess this is the trade-off for all of the games being dirt cheap basically.

It was the style at the time. Now, give me five bees for a quarter.

I’d eat all three, even the one that looks like a burnt marshmallow

I like a lot of stuff but I’ll say something that rarely gets brought up. I like sports games. I love most sports in general and I love when I can really get in to the feeling of role playing in a franchise mode or be a pro mode. I also love a crazy sports game (like mutant league football/hockey, super mega baseball, rocket league, nba Jam) especially when they treat it seriously and have franchise mode or things like that. I even love a game like Unreal Tournament 2004 (and others in the series, but that’s my favorite) that’s a shooter but is treated like a sport in game with team management and stuff.

There are a lot of lazy sports games and I play those too but there are some great ones too
