    I loved Fuzzy Felt, what a blast from the past!

    Guess Who? is awesome, but I still play it to this day. So doesn't have that same nostalgic effect on me :lol:

    I couldn't believe it the other day when I saw Atmosfear being advertised on Telly as a Christmas gift (though now with a DVD instead of a video, naturally). I used to play that 10+ years ago and be suitably terrified, but I remember the skid marks like it was yesterday...

    God I'm losing count, am on 9 after the first couple of pages.... Connect 4, who DIDN'T have that game? I had 3 versions, the official MB one, a cheap knockoff I got off a friend for my birthday and a mini one for travel ;) Never played it much. But EVERYONE knows that surely?


    .... My kids will be getting it at any rate :lol:

    [EDIT] ELECTRONIC DETECTIVE! Ohmygawddddddd! (now 13)

    [EDIT 2] 30 overall.... my god we were spoilt. I loved Electronic Detective though... I'm checking the loft for that when I get the decs down.

    That's where she got to...

    I LOVED fuzzy felt! I think that's about the only thing off there that I had, because my folks were poor. I played with loads of the other stuff at people's houses though :thumb:

    I was obviously deprived, I had hardly any of the things on that list! My friend had the speak and spell though, I thought it was fantastic and the height of technology!! :hyper:
