Day 8: Fighters Megamix, Sega Saturn. The Arctic stage. I mean, come on! It’s in Sonic The Fighters as well, but if you’re going to play one of them, play Megamix. Megamix is a good game. Sonic The Fighters… is not. Day 21: The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess, GameCube. The Snowpeak Ruins. Well, of course this frozen estate is Christmassy! It even has a Christmas message! All you need is 3 AA batteries (not included) and you're good to go! Give the gift of fun this holiday season with the Electronic Games Advent Calendar. Day 6: Dynamite Headdy, Mega Drive. All of it, really. It’s about toys coming to life to fight evil. Or something. The final battle that takes place high in the night sky in particular, makes me feel that Santa and his reindeer will fly past at any moment.

There's Simon Says, Wire Maze and Code Breaker to name a few - so you'll never be bored! The full-colour instruction booklet will walk you through how to create each game step-by-step. Day 18: Dark Chronicle, PlayStation 2. Kazarov Stonehenge theme. Alas, this music does not play to anything wintry as it would be perfect for it. But it has church bells, choir singing, it’s just so lovely. This unique Electronic Games Advent Calendar will keep you entertained all through December! Behind each of the 24 windows is a different electronic component, which when put together, will create a new game. Day 11: Super Mario 64, Nintendo 64. The winter levels. Let’s all be honest with each other, here: has anybody done sensory Christmas better than this? Nintendo just nailed it. Day 9: NiGHTS Into Dreams, Saturn. Elliot has a very Christmassy winter stage; the last stage of Twin Seeds also has that feel too. But the Claris and Elliot ending where she starts to sing and it looks like she’s in a lounge with all the Christmas decorations up… yeah. And it makes me choke up every time.Day 3: Sonic 2, Mega Drive. Casino Night Zone, despite the gambling connections, feels very much like going through your home town with all the Christmas lights turned on. And the entire finale, swelling with heroic triumph always makes me feel sentimental for the holidays. Day 20: Elite Beat Agents, Nintendo DS. A Christmas Gift. I think this one’s reputation precedes it. Just go watch it. It is all the feels. Within the UK and USA the price you see is the price you pay - you won't be charged any extra fees.

Day 2: Sonic The Hedgehog, Mega Drive. The music to Spring Garden has a bit of jingle bells vibe to it, but it is called Spring Garden. Starlight Zone, though, is almost perfect. It’s like a nice walk on a quiet, Christmas night.
