I not only own Smurf Rescue, but I played it a lot in the early 1980s. :)

I can't believe you admit you own smurf rescue. My wife made me play it once and I was about to rip out my eyeballs.

Other than that, nice article.

Thank you for your comments! I too used to play Ladybug with my dad.

Mine was gotten the month it was released. My parents bought it for me (a 6-year old little girl at the time) in an attempt to keep my butt from going outside immediately post-op. It worked, probably a little too well.

Anyway, I too loved Ladybug. My father and I used to compete with that game. Other games I had & loved (by default) were Donkey Kong (of course), Turbo (including the steering wheel you mentioned), Cabbage Patch Kids, Smurf Rescue, Zaxxon, and...uh...others I can't remember. I was really keen on both Cabbage Patch Kids and Ladybug though.

Thanks for the memories.
Shelly.
