I’m not a big gamer but I do remember many of my favourites from growing up in the 80’s. As video game production becomes a viable path of study in computer science labs and everyone seems to be engaged in at least one addictive game on their smartphone these days, this site offers a broad collection of old arcade-style video games. From the site: “Containing hundreds of games ranging through many different genres and styles, the Arcade provides research, comparison, and entertainment in the realm of the Video Game Arcade. The game collection ranges from early “bronze-age” video games, with black and white screens and simple sounds, through to large-scale games containing digitized voices, images and music. Most games are playable in some form, although some are useful more for verification of behavior or programming due to the intensity and requirements of their systems. Many games have a “boot-up” sequence when first turned on, where the systems run through a check and analysis, making sure all systems are go. In some cases, odd controllers make proper playing of the systems on a keyboard or joypad a pale imitation of the original experience.”
