What it’s all about. The C button on a Sega Megadrive!
Back in the days of Winchendon Road, Fulham, 1992ish, there were a bunch of students, some of whom were trying to study. The rest wasted a reasonable amount of time playing the Mega Drive.
Games included:
- John Madden Football 92
- 688 Attack Sub
- Altered States
- Sonic the Hedgehog
- Columns
- Ecco the Dolphin
- Phantasy Star
- Desert Strike
- Golden Axe
- Mega Bomberman
- Outrun
- Populous
The most infamous of these was Crack Down, a run and gun game that required you to kill the baddies. The best weapon of all was the fooyah, which, when the C button was pressed killed everything on the screen. The sound effect was the characters saying “fooyah”.
Simple really.
