Space reasons reduced me to having just a RetroArch setup 🙁 but I did have a 2600, NES, Genny, PSX and SNES in the day.

Might be a blessing in disguise considering how terrible Wrack was. and besides, derivative metal (which is a bit misleading, leaving out more of the moody stuff doom/doom2 had the fans disregard) wouldn't work out for d4 anyway

The obvious one? Tomb Raider. Earthworm Jim had a couple of sort-of-solid ports with more polished pixel art, though IIRC a couple of levels were missing. They also did an unreleased (but leaked) Super Star Wars port which was very faithful (and somewhat better than the SNES at some areas). :) Many …

Pakupaku's a decent faithful textmode pacman clone designed for the 4.77mhz's, though it's very Moraff-ish in about its license IIRC

I've always failed to see what Windows ME did that Windows98SE didn't. (From a retro perspective). Do you prefer Win98SE or WinME? Whats your reasoning? Higher mouse sampling rate by default was one, and integrating what Win98 Plus had (Compressed folders etc) as standard features were another, and …

Dwarf Fortress, Nethack (and all the other roguelikes) and Megazeux are some of the more popular ones.

There's no real advantage to use the Win version as of right now though (well, except for the fact you don't have to emulate it 😀 ), and the supposedly more moddable community edition doesn't work either.

Nevermind the Kyro - PowerVR Neon250. - It had a VERY delayed release (was originally slated for mid to late 1998 with some games prepared to support it (i.e. Half-Life), got bumped to late 1999) - It had a relatively obscure release - The Geforce256 hype and Savage 2000 hype really buried it The …

Also, the above 16-color CGA demo has worse graphics quality than the original 4-color CGA version(s). For others: keen4 also has an EGA version which is higher quality than CGA and both also include a soundblaster option instead of pc speaker. …
