Better than Forza 3? ( the SNES just got a dusting off)

[NewNameNeeded]

Have had my old SNES sat in a box for years. Tried it a couple of years back with a flatscreen and on first impressions I figured it was faulty as couldn't get it to work. Just couldn't throw it away though. Thank god I didn't - just had time to have a proper play with it and joy ... fully working order (just needed a bit of playing with the TV to tune it in). 11 games to boot, but this one went on first:



I know it's not a patch on modern gaming in most regards, but you know what? It's as much of a joy to play today as I remember when it was a new release.

Now just need to decide if I reserve a place for it next to the TV or *gulp* sell it.

Ahh the good old Snes.Mode 7 at its very best and multitap tennis rocked! Hands up who purchased some of the Super FX games
They were great games for the time and who can forget how many jaws were left on the floor when Donkey Kong Country appeared..
