๐Ÿ•น️๐ŸŽฎ The Argos Catalogue & Video Games in the 1970s, 80s & 90s | A Trip Down Memory Lane ๐Ÿ•น️๐ŸŽฎ #RetroGaming @Argos_Online

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On
Growing up in the UK as a kid during the 1970s, 80s and 90s meant that the Argos catalogue was a British kid's go-to piece of literature should you want to plan your next birthday or Christmas presents.

My first port of call was always the Video Games section which I looked at on a daily basis leading up to Christmas and Birthdays. My sister and I would play the Argos catalogue game where you would have to choose one item to buy from EVERY page and then initial it. I'd often end up having to circle and initial a duvet set that I didn't want to be followed by a Corby trouser press.


When we got to the Video Games section though the choice would be impossible to make as I was presented with all the latest video games related accessories and consoles!


My love for the Argos catalogue has carried on to this day and I still pick up a copy to circle items while playing the catalogue game.


Then something special happened recently when I stumbled across the Argos Book Of Dreams website which Argos have pulled together to make every Argos catalogue available online in a digital format! argosbookofdreams.co.uk

For me, Alex Kidd in Miracle World was a game that defined my video games playing childhood. It was a game that everybody seemed to won as it was the pack-in game with the SEGA Master System II.

My best mate Paul had a Master System II and I had the Mark 1 version with the built-in snail game. When Paul got his sleek-looking Master System II I was in awe of its design and size along with the amazing built-in Alex Kidd game.

If you thought SEGA couldn’t bring you more 90s nostalgia following the launch of the Mega Drive Mini earlier this month - guess again!
SEGA is firing up the engines for the SEGA Bus, invoking more retro power all across the UK this October by allowing SEGA fans to try out the recently launched Mega Drive Mini and be a part of this iconic event.

I was recently flicking through a copy of Mean Machines SEGA and came across a Rumbelows advert for the SEGA Master System 2 which inspired me to doodle a picture of a Mark I SEGA Master System and some classic SMS box art.

Rocky is the video game based on the popular series of Rocky movies, released for the Sega Master System in 1987. The player must train Rocky Balboa before each fight to improve his skills. 



Rocky possesses a straight punch, a hook, an uppercut, and body punch as well as various combos.




The opponents, in order, are Apollo Creed, Clubber Lang, and Ivan Drago.




Fights are of 15 rounds duration, with an increasing level of difficulty depending on the opponent, and different strategies required to overcome each.




The game also features a two-player mode where player two can choose from any of the above opponents, while player one always controls Rocky.




With Mick in my corner watch me as I dance my way to defeat! 

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaadrian!!!

Super Skidmarks from 1995 was developed by Codemasters and has the Codemasters fingerprints all over it.

For me, it's like a tougher Micro Machines with a Rally flavour running through it and boy is it tough.

Watch me struggle and whine through a Championship round of tough knocks and Super Skids!
