I remember being a young 16 year old warrior saving up my paper round money to buy an imported Street Fighter Turbo Edition for £75 then being told by the shop I'd also have to buy a £25 foreign games adaptor for my SNES to play it! Ah, great memories (there were great mammaries too on Chun Li!)
I also remember going into Manchester with some of my mates and thrashing all challengers in this rough arcade...then nearly being twatted for a little too enthusiastic gloating!

It kind of shows up our whinging's about Xbox360 games being £50 in the shops when you think back doesnt it!

Haha, yeah! Act a bit moody during the food shopping trip after dad said "no", and eventually he'd crumble!
