Do we have room for a retro gaming corner?

speedball, thats it.... what a hoot.  Just been playing rainbow islands and newzealand story.... most excellent.

I went a little mad a few weeks back.... I've now got:

vic20 with tape deck

classic shape c64 with tape and disk
3 * new shape c64 (two with tape, one with disk)
About 500 cassette originals
CD with every C64 game ever written (just need a good tape deck as to put them on tape I have to play them through my soundcard while recording them)

MSX

Atari STFM with second floppy drive

Uhm... with all them games - what about just bringing a couple of joysticks and run the Vice emulator on a PC? You can then mount the .d64 images directly into the emulator, that is you still have to do the load"*",8 stuff... That way there is no need for a TV nor a console... but of course, the retro bit sort of disappears. Just an idea...

That name, Stryker.. everytime I see it I think of Airplane, or Airplane 2: The sequel, where Lloyd Bridges is trying to remember where he knows the lead character from, named Striker... "striker, striker... striker!" and the guy behind knocks out a woman  :lmfao:

Some more facinating stryker facts:  It was the name of a most excellent football game..... it was the name of a porno star, an I mean a really porno star who'd f**k anyhthing with a cavity.

As for the retro gaming, I think we need the whole atmosphere of having a retro computer.... emulator games.... yeah, like the body is there but theres just no sole.

I need to make sure I've got the best 2 player games:  so far I have:

kickoff2, rampage, joust, blasteroids, karate kid, bubble bobble, speedball 2, space duel

Can anyone add any more to that?  I know there are loads more but I'm pi55ed right now, whats your excuse? :blink:

How about barbarian, int. karate and commando?

We can always get the games from c64.com btw.
