You actually could get sim city for the c64.
Tried to play it on my newly aquired emulator, but I can't get the control settings to work.
Damnit.

You could get it for the BBC as well
or at least, I've found a game called Sim City for the BBC...
Also found something mentioning lemmings, but that can't be Lemmings as we know and love it, surely?

yup
I've been relearning this week thanks to an emulator... the biggest thing's been trying to readjust to how the keys were laid out because the emulators (rightly) don't try and re-align all the keystrokes with PC ones.

see one?
I had one... the slot was for a ZIF socket, allowing simple rom upgrades - I saved up and bought one with my pocket money so I could swap roms with my mates, once my dad saw how useful these extra roms were he bought us an upgrade board so we had the full 16 roms and sideways ram... :)

Emulators just dont do it for me.

I've noticed something about old consoles
When you first get them, and you're about 7 or 8 (I know I got my c64 when I was 5) - you play them, you finish them, then you forget them. (or you find them too hard and give up or cheat)
10 years down the line, you're 18 and you're going to uni and you dig out your old console and get right back into it, but this time, when you complete them, you go back and do it all over again (and without cheating... for the most part)
Is that too sad or what?
