My work day is ruined! Gonna get some Galaga and Commando in before lunch!

Whereas my work day is just coming to an end. And I know exactly what I'm going to be doing! Cheers for this, I can feel the sticky carpet of my old local arcade underfoot even as I type...

Sweet. Thanks for sharing!

Can't get sound or gamepad to work, even with the refresh thing.

My post about this on the Video Games forum days ago goes into the controls and issues a bit more.

I've played old arcade games on PC, but there are some games in there that I haven't seen in a long, long time...stuff like Starfire, Bosconian, Venture, Vanguard and Pleiades.

Oooo...Satan's Hollow, that's a classic. Discs of Tron is nice too, although I bet those controls are wonky since IIRC it had a joystick and a dial that would also move up and down. Don't think there's a good keyboard solution for that one. And they have Gyruss? Oh boy. I used to be able to play that for a long, long time on a quarter.

I think the one over in the Video Games forum is the one to keep running...
