picked one up at a car boot sale for a fiver
streets of rage 1 and 2!, shinobi etc
the memories !
my god the fun ive had this evening
old school consoles are coming back in..
i recommend buying yourself one..
cost peanuts and it pays for itself in the hours of fun you will have with it
games are only a coupla quid off ebay too !

might go even more old school and keep my peepers open for a sega master system
or a NES :D

I used to play World Cup Italia 90 - little blobs running around.... You couldn't score in the first half unless it was a header. That that bobble noise you get when they dribble with the ball.
