Retrohead Spotlight

| The XE Game System (XEGS) was released in 1987. The XEGS was sold bundled with a detachable keyboard, a joystick and a light gun (XG-1), and a couple of game cartridges (Bug Hunt and Flight Simulator II). The XEGS was essentially a repackaged 65XE, and was compatible with almost all Atari 8-bit software and hardware as a result. Bad marketing and a lack of newer releases hampered sales. |  |

I have a preference to the Neo Geo. Mainly because I believe the thumb stick was a dream. Even putting to shame the current PSP thumb stick. Although on the gaming front perhaps the Game Boy wins by a country...what do you think?

After all these years and many School boy arguments I have finally realised how much better the C64 is compared to the Spectrum.
Bought a C64 last week it is far superior......................Discuss! Sinclair Fanboys welcome!!!!!!!!! |
