Was playing a bit of Stunt Car Racer for the Amiga this week, from 1989, and wondered how far back people are going!

This week it's been Megaman II (1988).

I feel like games before that era had a lot of coin-op focus. Not much content, but hard enough that you'll be pouring more credits into the machine. That said, I've been itching to play Alley Cat (1983), but I don't have a good setup for MS-DOS games at the moment. I'll have to see if my Miyoo mini is up for the task.
