The Internet Archive launches its arcade: Play classic games in a browser (Now with DOS games too)

Play the arcade at https://archive.org/details/internetarcade.

That's a lot of games (over 900 of them, in fact).

Dear god it has Pac-Man and Frogger!!!

I need someone to do this exact thing for Amiga games. Amiga games are literally just lost to time, no one has ever re-released them in their original form. The best port has been Lemmings for the PSP.

I know I can emulate them (and have done), but somehow getting older has made me want to buy official versions of things :/

Lotus Turbo 3
All the Lemmings Games
Bill's Tomato Game
Monkey Island
Sensible Soccer
Pinball Dreams & Pinball Fantasies (were re-released for PSP on PSN)

^Those were my first experiences of gaming on my Dad's old Amiga 600. The games were on floppy discs (Monkey Island had 12 and you had to swap them like every 5 minutes if you were changing area) and he would play Lemmings and I would tell him what to do in the winter and my mum would be baking madeira cake in the old house I spent my very young years in. I was about 5. Back when I didn't know they were actual human beings with flaws . The nostalgia is strong in this one.

so yes, VERY STRONG FEELINGS ABOUT AMIGA GAMES BRING THEM BACK

I'm sorry, the way I've been posting is terrible. I'm off topic in about 40 different threads tonight. I'm not even drinking :/

There was an Amiga in the Retro section at EGX. Didn't get a chance to try it because there was almost always someone using it.

The Archive adds DOS games. There are a lot of them.

This is really cool! Guess who played Oregon Trail instead of doing AP HW! This girl right here!

I payed for my procrastination with all of my party dying....
