>Wow JoseQ now there's a blast from the past !! I had forgotten bout that site LOL !!
That was the first place I recall reading Dexter's posts before they made their way to MAME.net site. twisty might still have Dexter posts archived. Need a Dexter tribute web page hosted on MW just to show old examples of classic Dexter lingo goodness.
*o/t*
iirc Way back in spring 2000, when first discovering emulation, I first visited Arcade@Home, and then went to another site (forget the name) saw screen snaps of some of the 1980s games I played. Told a relative of mine that evening.
He figured things out faster than I did and he had MAME up and running a day before me. I grabbed Carnival (1980) and Gremlin's Frogs off of Emuviews web site the following day and relived arcade memories of playing Carnival and Frogs for several hours. Probably best computer moment time ever had of playing those games......
and then over the past several years emptying wallet, when possible, to find and buy paperwork or whatever so missing audio sounds could be emulated for some of the 1970s games. :-)
