The old school Ghostbusters game, any memories?

I remembered when i was 8 in 1989 playing the NES GB 1 & 2 game i thought they were awful then later when i was 11 in 1992 when i got the Genesis i got Ghostbusters for the Genesis and that was the ONLY good GB game before the newest one.
 
Not sure if it's the same game, but I played the Ghostbusters game on the C64 (I had it on tape!), and I loved it!
 
I have fond memories of the Amstrad CPC 464 version, which I'm sure was just a straight port of the Spectrum & C64 versions.
 

Beat me to it.

I feel basically the same way. The only things good about those games were the feelings I felt as a little kid briefly when I played them. None of them were particularly good then, and they certainly don't hold any replay value now (and I play old games quite a bit).
 
The original Ghostbusters game was great. It's NES port was terrible, but I had it for the Apple II...I loved it. I should try to find an emulator for it.
 
I remember it.

1. Annoyingly slow teleprinter.
2. No I do not have an account.
3. I can only afford the slow car.
4. The forklift truck doesn't pick the $*@£ing stuff up and install it.
5. I can't tell which building I'm going to. What side of the flashing one do I have to stand?
6. How long does the damn road go on for?
7. WTF?! After all that, there's no ghost here. I must have stood on the wrong side of the flashing building :rolleyes:
8. Another looooong road.
9. A ghost! Oh crap I crossed the streams. My bad. Back to the flashing buildings.
10. But now there's a marshmallow man trampling the buildings. Is that game over? No?
11. Another road. :(
12. Another ghost! Great!... But It says I'm out of traps Go Back to HQ. WTF? TELL ME NOW?!
13. ROAD!!! :mad:
14. Now the PKE has overloaded 32768 and it's gone back to zero. :sigh:
15. All my buildings are flashing. The city has took away my franchise. I've been shut down. :(

BEST. GAME. EVER! :D
 
I was 5 when I played it and I was amazed, haha. I didn't care how much it sucked, I loved Ghostbusters too much to care, I was just happy to play a Ghostbusters game.
