I used to love Adventure on the Atari... I remember finding the hidden easter egg with the designers name hidden behind a wall. And of coarse the 3 dragons. I found a playable version online...scroll to the bottom and hit start game. Sweeeeeet!

Joust was hard. I did fine until th bottom ground burned up and that fire hand would reach out and grab you into the lava. Wizard of Wor was awesome, I had it on Coleco Vision!!

Krazy Klimber didnt convert well to the home systems because the arcade version had the 2 joysticks that controled the right and left hand.

I was a pimp at Krazy Klimber® back in the day. 13 years old. Black Flag Tshirt and a pocket of stolen quarters....not the toughest game in the world (kinda like Burgertime® in the 'pussy' concept dept,) but Donkey Kong on the 80th floor wanted to fuck my shit up.

HAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!
Yes, many a quarter was ganked from moms purse and many a day spent on restriction. It was worth it though. The game i could play forever on 1 quarter was asteroids. Leave one rock and just keep fling up until the little ufo comes aout and nail him. That little ufo was sugical with his shot though so ide have to weave. I had it down to a science.
