Does anyone remember the little QBASIC game called Nibbles? It's pretty much Snake on the nokia cellphones. Kept me busy in school :)

Oh yeah... And Gorilla (Gorillas?) too.

I remember when I got a faster computer (486 @ 100 MHz) I had to tweak NIBBLES's source code because it would crash on startup (divide by zero while trying to measure the computer speed, lol).

Pirates -- I had my second PC designed to boot from its 5-1/4 so I could play it.

Gauntlet -- Arcade port. Could no longer play it when my HD crashed and it would not allow me to reinstall.

Commander Keen -- Shareware versions.

EDIT -- ADD Tristan Pinball

EDIT -- ADD Microsoft Windows Arcade packs.

EDIT -- ADD SimCity.

I am Mario.

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

Ah yes....Gorillas. That was a pretty advanced game for its time....and it's simplicity

We never had that problem with having to tweak nibbles for the faster computers because we never got anything faster than a 386 :(

I did tweak it to put my name all over it like I made it...early days of piracy lol
