i havent used one since high school...
as far as my work with them, there wasnt any hard drives on our school machines, we load applications either from floppy disks, or from the Macintosh server. It is the closest to the mac, in terms that the applications we used, had a similar GUI setup (there was a paint program and some other applications that used a mouse), but there wasnt a GUI OS as far as i remember. i could be wrong though, it was a school, and even in those days, computers in school were stripped of many of their functions, since allowing kids to have full access to information may cause them to learn something

i think gamestop throws a lot of jewel cases away, as they take up space behind the counter where the games are kept. All of their used games are normally kept in paper sleeves.
-
plus they wouldnt have rights to arcade ports like Ms PacMan or Space Invaders. The lineup would begin to thin a bit...
-
Marble craze would be great, but i couldnt imagine playing with two analog sticks

btw, Ken has mentioned that a Mac version was most probable along with a PC version. keep in mind that the original 2600 action Packs were also released for Mac way back when

-
i wouldnt know, as i find games that dont allow you to directly control the action very annoying (gyromite with ROB is another example)
-
Pac Man 2 was made for the Genesis as well

-
Dont forget Intellivision, Colecovision, GameBoy Advance, Gameboy Color, B/W Gameboy, Neo Geo Pocket Color, and im sure plenty of 80's computer ports such as the C64, and even Microsoft Arcade for Windows

the xbox can double as a coffee table

thats how companies grow to become nationwide chains, by cutting corners and ripping off as many people as they can.

ok

i was thinking it was maybe an oddessy 2 cart

-
orange label?

This looks like a job for Super Paul !!

also keep in mind the Apple I was never mass produced beyond a few dozen units made for a local computer store. The Apple II was the first computer to use a plastic mold casing.
Wood grain needs to make a comeback, im tired of black, beige, and metal electronics they are void of personality, and the iMac candy trend was a brief fad that most people never bought into (i certainly did though
) I still wouldve loved it if somebody made a custom woodgrain iMac with a big metal switch instead of a power button. -
could it ever be worked into MAME?
-
trade them into the Atari Age store for credit
-
EA and Accolade were originally unlicensed third parties, so they had to make their own cart casings. Eventually they became licensed, but continued to use their own cases.

its all about cocoa puffs

Intellivision Lives is a great disk and its well worth the 30 dollars. the only games missing are the arcade ports and license games like koolaid man. plus some of the videos are great
-
i think they were good games too, but they were released after most people had given up on the N64.
-
I just hope that its not the last great cube game, like Ocarina was for the N64 (the last great game that got people buying N64s, before an arguement erupts
) -
im getting the player first, its much cheaper, and it will be nice to play games on a large tv screen

INTV corp did make a port of Stadium Mud Buggies for the NES (it was to be their only NES game), but ended up renaming it Monster Truck Rally or something lame like that. Its kindof funny to compare the two games
