Never forget seeing the Spectrum for the first time. I remember when i was 11, going around my mum's friends house. He was an adult and had enough money to buy one.. He had built a little cabinet up, that housed a 14" TV and a shelf that had a bunch of Speccy games. I was mesmerized. Played Wheelie all night long. Just had to have one after that. ! Great times ! We didn't have a lot of money, but my mum who was a single mother, somehow managed to find a way to get me one.

I had hundreds of games when I was around 13-14, all copied from mates, tape deck to tape deck of course :)
I have forgotten most of them.
Jet Set Willy
Manic Miner
Match Day
Skool Daze
Decathlon
Spy Hunter

Tons of them, happy days :)

I had the Mirage Microdriver, you could backup and use your software but only if the Mirage was plugged in.... Unlike the Multiface 1 which you didn't need to play the backups you made. ;)

Anyway games, Quazatron, Highway Encounter, Starstrike II.
