Monthly System/console/theme Challenge!

[Huxley]

Sounds interesting...I'm game!

I'm thinking of just broad-categories, to get people going (like "movies"+"Genesis", so you can try out a bunch of games you might not have tried otherwise). But above he brought up a good idea.. like Speccy. Retro Gamer is forever going on about Repton and Dizzy (Spindizzy?) and other popular Spectrum games. Perhaps one months theme could be "Dizzy games" or perhaps "Spectrum games" ..

Aah, Dizzy, be it a Dizzy month! (not Spindizzy though..)

​

Did anybody actually FINISH Spindizzy?
I only played through Spindizzy Worlds - but Spindizzy is nigh impossible to finish...

 

[Flip & Flop]

Q*Bert & his clones on the Atari 800 emu

Flip & Flop, Pharaoh's Pyramid, Pogo Joe, Q*Bert and Rainbow Walker.

although i play these on my Xbox (atari emu) they work just as well on handheld.

Spindizzy was the first game I ever had EVER, and I played it to death, but no, I fear it is impossible to complete.
