Actually bought a C64 recently and finally got to try out my old cassettes, some of them worked fine, some only occasionally on the B-side and some not at all. Anyway, it´s still impressive what developers could do back in the day with just 64k of RAM memory and the wonderful SID music is just the icing on the (birthday) cake... I also wish for more C64 games on the VC (even if I already own most of my favourites)
Good to see more VC games, really, but my favourite Wonderboy title is actually the first one... you know the charming platformer where you can ride a skateboard and stuff, yeah I would love to see the arcade version get a VCA release
Great motorcycle game and nice to see the VCA getting some love again. I had expected a (slightly) higher rating though, the game deserves at least a 8/10 in my opinion (probably even higher). But I agree that Out Run is a bigger classic, a truly legendary game that should also get a VCA release.
