Dennis The Menace (UK, not US one) and a few others.

Hi, I used to have a Dennis The Menace game where Gnasher would chuck things at you from above and you (as Dennis) had to catch them, think it may have been called Dennis & Gnasher? It was quite chunky and yellow, with, I think, 2 large buttons on the left and right. And just for clarification, this is NOT the US Dennis The Menace which was a completely different cartoon character.

There was a game my brother had, think it was small and purple (rounded triangle in shape) and there were lots of bats flying around with a famous classical piece playing in the background (forgot how it goes). I think you had to catch the bats when they flew close to you, but I'm very fuzzy on this.

Last one now, I had a racing game, it was orange and I think it was the same shape and size of the last one. I think in the background there were mountains and possibly a cave, I always thought I could reach the cave if I drove for long enough!

OK, thanks, bit fuzzy on the last two but if anyone knows anything about any of these games then please reply.

p.s. My brother had a little dinosaur themed game, I seem to remember it being quite small and thin, possibly rectangular in shape. I was very young and remember very little about it, sadly I dropped it down the stairs and broke it, my brother wasn't too happy.

Oh, bit more info, I think Dennis & Gnasher (or whatever it was called) was made by Grandstand? That definitely rings a bell with me but I'm not completely certain.

Hello Chris,
Have a look at the top right game on this link. It ends in less than a day.

Oh wow, cheers. Yeah, that was the one, I remember pronouncing it "Grand Pricks" and my Mum would always tell me the correct pronunciation for it . I might bid for this, not if it goes for too much though.

Yeah, it's like a piece of my childhood, remember playing this crappy game on long car journeys with my family.

And about the game my brother had, I think it was exactly the same case as the Grand Prix game but purple, and it may have had a classical piece playing in the background, or at least at the start of the game, may have been Hall of The Mountain King or a similar piece, I'm not sure. I was always jealous of it as well .

Hello Chris,
Is this the purple bat game your brother had?
