At the time, this game also blew me away:

I still love it to this day.

Eh... in my opinion, Tennis for Two (which came out long before Pong) was far more visually stunning:

Pong just looks sterile in comparison.

Graphically, this is one of my favourite games. Some of the pixel art in this is amazing:

Man I love it. It is stunning. The immense detail conveyed with such limited hardware (and the somewhat artificially imposed limitations of AGI).

In fact, I love it so much that recently, I started a recolouring project for it. So far, I've only finished one of the backgrounds (no views, only the pic data). I hope to eventually have it compatible with ScummVM.

Also, big props to Flashback, Ikaruga, and Donkey Kong Country.

And I also loved Yoshi's Island's art style, and Portal. Being able to look through the Portals at yourself or through infinite portals is amazing.

Interesting side note but if you listened to the developer comentary they said the game could only actually make 9 copies of yourself before the engine started experiencing lag, so they used a trick of colors to make it work after that.

By default, they actually use the texture trick on the second iteration. You can crank it up to 9 in the graphics options, but you can hardly tell a difference between 2 and 9.
