OK I bought my GP32 for the emulation and I am lovin it, lovin it, lovin it like that.... in fact I love it like I love my Winkie...

but... I come from the stable of Spectrum and a bit of C64... I totally missed out the 8bit consoles, ST and only had a Game Gear so no nothing about Game Boy....

So... your help is needed.... naturally we don't need to talk about where we get these ROM's from... let's just assume that we have the complete rom sets...

Now I have been trying a few at a time but there is loads of dross...

Can we create the top 20 games for:

Spectrum
C64
Mastersystem
GameGear
NES
GameBoy
ST

(and obviosuly SNES but only really worth it when we get da emulator)

where we have duplicate games over platforms we should pick the best version and allow a slot for summit else...

anyone up for this...???

I'll go first with what I know: Spectrum (ah bless! warms the cockles of ya heart doesn't it to see the flash and sinclair copyright nuff respec Sir Clive)

this is obviosuly my opinion so post your own choices but if we keep it tidy like below people can scan down the entire list

Sinclair Spectrum

1. Bombjack
2. I Ball 2
3. Wheelie
4. Zynaps
5. Sabrewulf
6. Starstrike 3D
7. Minder
8. Lunar Jetman
9. ATV Simulator
10.Chuckie Egg
11. Cybernoid 2
12. Dan Dare 1

14. Ghosts n Goblins
15. Hypersports
16. Ikari Warrior
17. StarGlider
18. Thrust
19 Turbo Esprit
20. Micronaut One
