There should be a few others here that might remeber the 2002 April Fools stunt that Gridle did. I still prefer the 2001 April Fools that Gridle did, but Gridle did do a good job fooling users into believing Model 2 was emulated at the time.

And maybe a couple from the 1960s/1970s arcade era that played games back then waiting around for Nutting's Computer Space to be emulated before they can retire from the emu-scene.
