I wore out 3 sets of joysticks on my Atari 2600. I loved all the games, especially since you could get them at Sears, but Pitfall was one of my favorites.

Leisure-suit Larry anyone?

oh, how about the first laser disk video game - Dragon's Lair! While holding the line we'd jump between Joust, Lunar Lander, and Time Pilot. Woot!

MAME32 Unfortunately, the Copyright holders started claiming their rights upon seeing the popularity. So, you have to purchase the ROMs again.

There IS an emulator for Oregon Trail, I had it for awhile, however, I'm quite the computer idiot, and had an old acquantance of mine walk me thru installing it and what not. I have NO idea where he got it from. :( I know I'm not much help, but know that it DOES exist!!!

Oh, yeah. Joust was the BOMB. And Frogger... I still have my Atari 2600 sitting in the bottom of the entertainment center :D

Your wagon has broken a wheel!!!

First PC game I ever bought was Archon. Loved that one. But my favorite all-time pc game has got to be Minotaur. Got my entire floor playing it in college one year (15 years ago, yikes!).
