Re: I don't get the point of this thing
I occasionally fire up my Apple ][+ emulator.
The problem is that the screen is so very small, or so very horrible when large. I'd love to see some of the games remastered for high-res. Someone re-created choplifter for the mac with fancy graphics and scenery. It was ok, but I'm thinking keep the same look, just smooth out the graphics - 320x240 just looks horrible these days.
It does appear that gameplay hasn't changed much in 30 years. I saw "crossy-road" recently... why can't they just call it Frogger 2015? If you thought 1980's joysticks were rubbish, wait til you try using a touch-screen...
