if you want to waste some time,  sign up to stumbleupon.com      Punch in your interests (I started with 5 or 6 so not too many) and stumble away

basically millions of people with similar interests push the best sites to the top of the pile. there is some weird and wonderful crap you wouldn't normally google yourself

described as “a map to an adventure you wouldn’t otherwise have found out about.”

I was hooked on Galaga and Galaxian when I was younger. Back when 20c would pay for a game or an ice cream or a pack of Hubbard Bubba.

Was (& indeed still am, thanks MAME!) on 1942/1943 - what a button masher that was :). In the process of building a little arcade cab now to have games on tap :)

Mame is deadly addictive! Some of the games I'd forgotten, then when you find them, you lose 4 hours instantly..
as Muz said, back when 20cents would buy you something... It was a sad day when the games went to 40 cents.. then skyward... I think they are $2.00 a game now ..

Yeah, and a lot of them are too complex now compared to the old fun button mashers! If you want to blow off steam you cannot beat an old game :)
Hmmm, maybe make a 12v arcade for camping??  :cheers:

Anything/anyone they could get their hands on and rip-off, if more recent times are anything to go by!
