Are there any games for mame with excavators in it? So far I couldn't find anything, and also google-searches turned out nothing. I you know anything even remotely similar, please tell. :-) Naoki Reged: 11/10/09 Posts: 1998 Loc: United Kingdom Send PM Re: Excavator games [Re: blarg] #290573 - 06/30/12 12:14 PM Reply There is one on the Taito Zero system called Power Shovel Simulator, but I don't think it's currently working, or might be but not playable. ---- On a quest for Digital 573 and Dancing Stage EuroMix 2 By gods I've found it!

And it works just fine in MAME. Khm... ...You could try Excelsior for Yourself Sune Connected Reged: 09/21/03 Posts: 5648 Loc: Lagoa Santa, Brasil Send PM Re: Excavator games [Re: Naoki] #290591 - 06/30/12 11:14 PM Reply > There is one on the Taito Zero system called Power Shovel Simulator, but I don't > think it's currently working, or might be but not playable.

Honestly, I think you need to go old school. Seriously. blarg Commie64-Nut Reged: 07/01/07 Posts: 57 Send PM Re: Excavator games [Re: Sune] #290652 - 07/01/12 08:08 AM Reply Thank you all for great suggestions! I never knew Dig Dug was an excavator game! Now that I think of it, it all makes a lot of sense. Nice one. Although my son seems to be obsessed with the giant shovel aspect of excavators. I also played Excelsior before, but this is more like a jackhammer-game IMHO. :-D Power Shovel Simulator looks awesome, and I'm definitely trying to get it to run. Awesome. blarg Commie64-Nut Reged: 07/01/07 Posts: 57 Send PM Re: Excavator games [Re: Waremonger] #290653 - 07/01/12 08:11 AM Reply > Honestly, I think you need to go old school. Seriously. Totally true. I've done that before, of course.

Don't forget a cover/lid or the younglings will be 'excavating' smelly droppings forever... Pessimist: Oh, this can't get any worse!

I have this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000036...ASIN=B0000365KL ... though not sure if it will actually survive real sand. Also I don't have a yard, too expensive here in Seoul. But I have some space on the open-air roof. Thinking this over now, my god that will be a mess. :-D Pages: 1
