Know Your Roots (NES Style)

Do you recall all the wasted hours on the games and consoles of the past? Everything from the first Playstation and the Nintendo 64 to the NES and the Dreamcast is fair "game" here.

Please forgive the lame pun.

nope, not spy hunter, which was awesome. i still remember the glitch where you could start in the shoulder of the road on the right, then when the lane narrowed you could go into the grass without dying and then drive aimlessly for ever on the right. I never did "finish" spy hunter .. that game just went on forever.

Oh shit, it's Bump 'n Jump. This game was the shit, I first played the arcade version at my local Chuck E Cheese and picked it up on the Nintendo as soon as I say it. I believe this game is the reason hydraulics on cars became so popular in the late 80's/early 90's.

Hint #1: This game was a driving game, a shooting game using the gun and a side-scrolling action game all in one story.

I will give you more in a couple of days.

Indiana Jones? That's my best guess right now. I know I've played this game before... :?

Nope, that is not it. The name is two words and is alliterative.

Here is the cover for the game when it was released in Japan. And no it is not Crocodile Dundee.
