As far as C64 goes, when I was young there were radio broadcasts with C64 games. You'd record them on tape and then put that in the comodore...
Yep. And it never worked π
Yup! But at least that tradition went on for a while. Just like a 3.5" disk failing... when your game was a single RAR file split over 15 of them.
Oh I remember bringing not one, not two but three pirated 5.25" disks home from the only other C64 person in the village! 3km in the cold on my crappy bicycle.
Coming home the cold had made them all making read errors aaargh but then they thawed up and all worked perfectly well, I remember one was a sort of platformer where you had to walk on the different ingredients of burgers to make them fall down an well ... make burgers.
That was really a nice time to be alive.
Burger Time! Thatβs my teenage kidβs favorite stand-up arcade game, we still see them around once in a while!
