On Game Boy!!! On Game Boy!!!

I adore the hell out of the computer (PC, Mac, Amiga) versions.

Unfortunately the only two ports that I actually own are Game Boy and Game Gear... :roll:

According to GameFAQs Lemmings is on:
PC

Mac

Commodore 64
Amiga
Amiga CD32

Amstrad CPC

Sharp X68000

ZX Spectrum

Acorn Archimedes

NES
Game Boy
SNES
Game Boy Color

Master System
Game Gear
Genesis

Turbo CD

Lynx
Atari ST

PlayStation
PlayStation 2
PSP

3DO

CD-I
This has to be one of the most ported games of all time! And I'm not even counting digital versions.

I bet the CD-I port of Lemmings is one of the better games on the console. The crappy wireless controller probably even works well.

I must play Lemmings now.

NO! Wait for Together Retro.

Oh, and it's also got Flash versions you can play in your browser. It's definitely one of the most ported games I can think of. Up there with Tetris.

Oh yeah..... I shall wait for TR. 8)

That reminds me - at one middle school I used to work at the kids were obsessed with Flash Lemmings. I used to play it every now and then on lunch breaks and whatnot.

EDIT: Just bought DOS Lemmings on Amazon. 88 cents plus shipping. December is the perfect month for me to play a TR game, as the Together RPG game (Crystalis) isn't that long. It's actually probably shorter than Lemmings!

You have no idea how bad I've craved for another Lemmings or Lost Vikings game over the years. Loved stuff like that.

Unfortunately, I understand...I understand completely...I loved The Lost Vikings, and I would love to see another game.

I wish The Lost Vikings had been given a mission pack sequel, as I always felt the original game was a bit too short and The Lost Vikings 2 never did much for me.

Lemmings on the other hand does have a mission pack sequel, Oh No! More Lemmings. I don't know anyone who's really played it though (myself included).

Which version of Lost Vikings 2 have you played? The games look very much the same layout wise and all, but the difference between the SNES and PSX/PC versions is pretty crazy with the graphics/music.

Was always partial to the first game myself though, loved the levels. Those happy looking candy stages still crack me up though, the difficulty definitely spikes there.
