May i direct your hard earned to this:



I recovered on of the large ones from my parents loft and set about restoring it. The batteries had leaked and eaten through some of the wiring. I spent a few hours repairing this and called my children to come and be amazed....

"Its rubbish Dad".

In a lot of cases, stuff that was great in the past, deserves to remain in the past as happy nostaligic memories.

(although Super Mario Kart on the SNES is an exception to this rule)

This thread inspired me, dug up my Rubik's Cube, game and watch Fire and the classic Donkey Kong. Off to get batteries methinks:

Arena with "Another Green World" by Brian Eno. The main reason to watch hehe

There's a great little 10min YouTube vid about the making of that title sequence.

The Eno theme is brilliance as already stated.
