For anyone else reminiscing about their favorite vid game, you can still play them.(I don't play video games)

Lets not derail the thread, it may require another, but here is some basic info.

Finwad is doing it AWESOME,  but for the rest of us.  Here is your Tecmo Bowl

IF you are computer savvy, there is a way to play almost every arcade and console game, for free.  It's called MAME(Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator)   Download MAME(been around 20 years).   It does nothing.   It's a substrate for the chip array/program.   Then download the ROM, and load it into MAME.   It is legal.    You can have every game in a 1980's arcade, as well as the majority of the cartridge games.  It takes a little bit of savvy, but if that's your thing...

Many moons ago, my roommate and I were both Computer Science.  He built a stand up MAME machine with about 3000 arcade games in it.   Complete with detachable non-standard controls, for Berzerk, Asteroids, Centipede, Zaxon etc...   If you want to re-live your youth, there is a good chance that the games you all posted, have a corresponding ROM, and you can play the original, without the console, or the game.   Research MAME, and they are yours, with your effort,
