| | I've noticed a lot of people have been asking around about a game from their childhood that they can't remember. We can all help if there is just one thread where you ask, and we can try and find. I found Adventure Island II, we've also heard about Prehistorik and the game with the green triangle spaceship. So if your memory is hazy, post what you can remember here with as many details, no matter how obscure, here. |

| | Ok, there are cave men, and you fight dinosaurs as bosses. You can get a wife and accessories for your house. IDK the name of this game, but it was for SNES. |

| Hey man, I'm trying to remember these 2 cools games I played when I was a kid, I was wondering if you could help me.
The first one was for Sega Master System. It was this awesome game where you had a Helicopter, and you had to go and save some people. I really have no idea about anything else, all I really remember is about the helicopter and saving this old guy.
The other one was for Nintendo I think. It was about this cool tank. You were a kid(At least it looked like a kid, probably wasn't), and you were in this tiny little kickass tank. You could shoot mad fast and you could jump with the tank. You would get some little power ups that would allow your tank to do cool stuff like drive up walls and fly. I really loved that game, do you remember the name? |

| Hehe, that almost looks like Ryu shooting Bison. lol
Ok, try this this one. I remember in the arcade, back in the 90s, there was this 3rd person 2D shooter. Your controls were two bulky joysticks. The left joystick moved around to move the player, and your could also twist it to direct your fire. The other joystick fired your weapon. I forget the exact controls, but I know your main controls were two joysticks. I remember one of the bosses was a big blob-like monster on a tank. |

| | I'm trying to think of a side-scrolling SNES game where you were a robot of some sort. You had a shield and a gun and blasted all types of things. You could use your booster jets and there was quite a lot to it IIRC. It was also quite hard... completely forget the name but. |

| | There was this side-scrolling shooter/platformer for the gameboy back in the day where you controlled a robot/spaceship that could "transform" (via attachments) into three different modes. One of them was a spaceship, another, a robot with a stretch-arm (for swinging onto platforms), and the last was somewhere in between. The robot looked a lot like a r-type ship with arms and legs attached. It might've been a Japanese game, but I'm not entirely sure. It was really cool, since it combined a shooter game like R-type with a platformer. Anybody remember this game? |
