Recently been replaying through the original Sonic series - Sonic 1, 2, 3 & Knuckles. That's been fun.
Also recently downloaded the Megadrive rom for Aladdin. I seem to remember enjoying it, although it was insanely hard!

Aladin was hard as nails, also Lion King made me want to chuck my controller at the screen. They sure dialed in difficulty differently back then.
What's the best of the Sonics in your opinion?
My favourite on its own would be Sonic and Knuckles, but the best, imho, is to combine Sonic 3 with Sonic & Knuckles. You used to be able to actually plug one cartridge into the other - so cool
Oh right I remember that, the Knuckles cartridge had those little flaps at the top you could jam another cartridge into. My young mind was blown when I saw that for the first time.
I have an external soft spot for Sonic 2, but objectively S&K is probably the best of the bunch.
I've been playing Car Battler Joe on GBA again recently, such a great game! It has lots of quirks but the core gameplay is solid - it's really too bad it never got a sequel. I don't know of any other games that can scratch this particular kart racer+vehicular combat+RPG itch either.
Late reply, but as someone who grew up in the era of 8-bit games, I feel like I'm still trying to catch up before I move on thoroughly to 16/32-bit. :P
Mind you, I've all kinds of things to say about 8-bit games. The stories I could tell, etc etc!
Anything about retro gaming, arcade, 8bit, 16bit, 32bit. Emulators, devices, games and beyond.
