Could be. I've text my brother and he reckons it was Tekken World Cup and that it was around 1986 ish rather than 88-92 as he remembers being younger, but that brings nothing up on google but pictures of Tekken the fighting game. |

Next question to narrow it down, did you have to scroll around the world to pick who you wanted to be? |

Tehkan.  I used to play on my speccy on a wicker chair, which my dad had painted in white emulsion for some reason. |

This is my major issue with HD gaming. As a kid, I had to play on a tiny screen. It was only after much begging and pleading when my dad bought a new TV for downstairs could I get a "downstairs telly" to play my games on.

I had to use the downstairs telly all the time when I got my first comp (speccy 48k), as we didn't have any other TV's in the house and only got a portible B&W to put upstairs as part of the rental package for a newer colour TV in the late 80's. Our main TV was a B&W in the front room during the early 80's until we got one of my grandads cast off colour TV's, which didn't last long before slowly getting that strange red hue of a dying tube, before going pop, which prompted us to 'upgrade' to the rented colour TV (god, I'm making us sound poor! ).
I remember getting my own portible colour for my 13th or 14th birthday. This was in the days of the Amiga and previous to that me and my brother had to make sure our teams in sensi soccer where in light or dark coloured kits otherwise we'd end up not having a clue who was who on the old B&W portible.
Now if I could just find my pipe and slippers...................... 
*Edit - Do they even do TV rentals these days? The lost art of the Big Telly, Little Telly, and VCR rental package. |

My dad used to rent TVs, but to the point where we'd then be owners of it, so we'd get cast offs and he'd get a new one in the front room. Used to love fighting my brother in armed combat (whatever we could find) to get the new old tele.

Same here, my mum would rent them until the point they were worthless to the rental company, who were always surprised she was still paying for it when she'd enquire about an upgrade. Either that or the company would have gone bust and been taken over by the time she realised the TV might not be worth the rental money any more. |
