Simply called Golf, this 1989 Game Boy title is a conversion of Nintendo‘s classic 1984 Nintendo Entertainment System game and gives a fantastic round of putting and driving on Nintendo‘s humble little handheld.

Resident Evil, Game Boy Color
***CANNED GAME***
The retro games community got excited recently when two development cartridges from a cancelled version of Resident Evil for the Game Boy Color were found and dumped by some shadowy, anonymous people.
Was the excitement worth it?
Resident Evil 4, PC
The high-def Windows version of Resident Evil 4 looks a bit sharper than the GameCube original, but is essentially still the same great game.
The Sentinel, Amiga
Geoff Crammond‘s The Sentinel (aka The Sentry in North America) is a strange chess-like game where you have to sneak up on an overseeing watcher, who is perched high on a platform, overlooking the play area, and absorb him before he does the same to you.
Head Over Heels, PC
Which leads me up to this 2003 remake of Head Over Heels, by Retrospec.
A re-imagining of Ritman and Drummond‘s classic game, with updated visuals and sound. Does it cut the mustard? Does it live up to the greatness of the original?
Head Over Heels, Amiga
The Amiga version of Head Over Heels – like the Atari ST version – is pretty much a perfect conversion of this classic isometric platform game.
Head Over Heels, Atari ST
The Atari ST and Amiga versions of Head Over Heels are pretty much indistinguishable, other than slight colour palette differences.
Both – I would say – are among the greatest video games of all time.
Head Over Heels, Atari 8-bit
The Atari 8-bit home computer version is definitely the blandest-looking version of Head Over Heels, with the least amount of colour.
Head Over Heels, MSX
The MSX got a pretty much perfect conversion of Head Over Heels, although I’m not sure who the person was who converted it.
Head Over Heels, Amstrad CPC
The best-looking of all the 8-bit versions of Head Over Heels, in my humble opinion.
