  1. Internet Time Machine: A Box that acts as a proxy for the WayBackMachine, so you can view it on old computers: 

     

  2. Wild Brain put the entire Pole Position cartoon on YouTube: 

     

  3. Airport Tycoon (Air Mogul) Full 3D, but with a locked off camera. There was a mode which would let you kinda walk around your airport, which was cool. The people in your airport were rendered crudely, maybe a a few dozen polygons a piece. They were actually a bit creepy, but that wasn’t a major turn off. The game itself was fun, if you could work with the restrictive camera. You could buy land across the world & place airports in major cities. One city in Alaska was free; never got far enough to see the other cities. Sadly, it won’t work on my new computer; I think it needs some stuff which only comes with 32-bit versions of Windows.
  4. Seems there used to be more caveman themed media in general; as more people accepted that the genre kinda died out.
  5. Tetris Attack & Puzzle Bobble are my favorites.
  6. We still have a Stop Thief game! Two I do believe! Saw a new copy in stores a year or so ago, but it used an app instead of the Electronic Crime Scanner. An app-based version didn’t sound half-as cool, so we passed it up.
  7. Beat Crash Team Racing yesterday!

  8. Is it just me, or does hand-painted cell animation have richer colors than digital ink & paint?

  9. Added a new page to the Pokémon section of my website: https://websitering.neocities.org/pkmn/league.htm

  10. Ah, here's a post with a pic of the Dactar-Comp: And here's one of the Dynacom Keyboard: Should've done a forum search first. Now I just need to do a bit of digging to get the history.
  11. Ah, I didn’t realize the first post was from 2017. Sorry! Still… Does anyone have pics of these?
  12. The Turtle in Turtle was a mother, right? Other than that... Pokémon Crystal let you choose a female avatar, if you liked.
  13. You press the last page button, then look for something interesting. Why? You want to say something, & none of the new topics are interesting.
  14. Happy Father’s Day!

  15. Does the world need another search engine?

      I don't know... let me do a quick search for that.

  16. The ST was more popular over there, so they maintained greater mind share in the late 80's. That gives the brand one extra half-generation of nostalgic adults to appeal to.
  17. Yeah, VHS remained relevant till ~2006, maybe later. And the Internet didn’t start catching on in my area till ‘98 or ‘99. My family didn’t get it till 2008. I’m 32, & I like Atari. Been collecting 2600 carts since I was 6, 7, or 8. The system was my dad’s, & it holds a special place in my heart. The games are simple, but fun. Then again, I like older things, like records & film cameras & encyclopedia sets. Perhaps it’s just taste?
  18. Happy Memorial Day Everybody!

  19. With Netflix raising their prices, I wonder if now is a good time to bring back the video rental store...

      Well,

       

      The restaurant I work for is experiencing some difficulties...Hopefully if a loan is approved it will re-open.   The owner is jumping through hoops I assume.  In the meantime I am trying to get on at DoorDash, but my computer camera (which they use to verify IDs) has been taped over so (even after cleaning) my ID pic is Blurry, and they can't confirm me.   I'm waiting to hear back from their support (second issue actually)...My old tech job is hiring from what I understand, but it wasn't really worth the numerous headaches...And there's someone there I'd rather not ever see again.

      Oof. Man, that sucks. Hope you get something very soon!

      Thanks man!  I'm OK for now... :)

  20. Crash Bandicoot Adventure (archive.org) This was an online adventure game, used as part of a contest to promote the first Crash Bandicoot title. Anyone remember it? I tried emailing one of the developers of Crash, but he hasn't emailed me back. Already started a thread in the regular forum, but I thought it might get a better response here.
