Hi all, I am from Taunton, England although originally from East London. My first computer was shared with my Bro. This was a ZX Spectrum. Back in those days it seemed we took more time loading games than actually playing. I argued a lot with my Bro at the time as to the ownership and game time on this computer. My next door neighbor at the time had a commodore then an Atari and eventually a SMS. Which she very kindly let me play and get addicted to. The same neighbor then had a cousin who was selling theres and this became my £27 pound Birthday present. With Alex kidd buillt in and Enduro racer amongst the games i got with it, i was hooked. A Mega drive was bought several years later and i got rid of my SMS. Fast foward to 2005, They were selling old SMS's and games in a local store which is now defunct, so i just couldnt resist. Since that point i have been an on off player. But recently bought the SMS in from my shed and i have played it none stop. Whatever new computer i get i always seem to come back to the SMS. My favourite games since i started really getting back into it again is Rampart. Although Mortal Kombat 1 and Alex Kidd are still very playable. I have a fair few games now. I intend to try to complete each and everyone and amass a large collection. i just bought James Bond the Duel and am looking forward to playing it for the first time!

Welcome to the forum! It's always nice to hear the great memories people have of the SMS.
I'm from East London but just recently moved to Essex. My girlfriend is from Yeovil so I'm out near your way fairly often too.
Anyway, hope you enjoy getting involved in some discussions!

I grew up in Taunton. I can therefore let you know that Yeovil may as well be on the moon, people from Taunton don't move about much
