We've gotta be in double figures on the Binatone now. I might get one again. We’ve probably all got the same dad

I'm genuinely astonished by how much hardware certain people have owned! Makes me feel like a filthy casual. If it makes you feel better, I actually am a filthy casual. Just old.

I had astrowars/astroblaster as a gateway to keep me going during the saving phase for the speccy rubber keys that eventually was continued to get a C64 instead! I didn't include those on the list as I didn't feel those, or my sisters snoopy tennis game&watch counted!

Astrowars enjoyer here too, the absolutely ear splitting startup 'tune' is permanently etched on my brain.

I remember head butting the screen when I nearly clocked the game.

Do the Tiger handhelds count? I was thinking hardware that's primary focused on gaming, that's capable of playing multiple different games. But it's all shits n gigs innit, so list away! Would be interesting to hear what Tiger handhelds people owned.

Oh, I think we also had a Game & Watch Chef. I remember playing on it, but I assume it would have been purchased before I was born, as it came out 6 years before I did.

We had two of those Grandstand handheld games
Caveman and Munchman. They were great, surprisingly robust

Honestly, I think my favourite gaming experience ever in recent time was playing Astro Boy and checking out all the Easter eggs. It was a similar feeling playing Sonic All Stars Racing Transformed back in the day. Still the best Sonic game… maybe ever? I spent about 40 hours competing with a friend to break the top 10 time trials on a track I think was called Ocean View? Managed 7th in the world with my mate in 9th. He wasn't happy since he broke the top 10 first lol

Do the Tiger handhelds count? If they do I had this monstrosity that I'd completely forgotten about. It was fucking terrible.
