Robotron. There's just no way to replace the "feel" of a fullsize
upright with two joysticks -- *dragging* all that weight across
the floor in a frenzied bout with The Brains... :>
While I'd *love* having a cocktail, the play sensation just
wouldn't be the same as the upright!
I've never quite found a faithful modern version.
Even with the proper
ROMs and MAME, it's not quite the same - I suspect because the display
just lacks that period fuzzyness; it all looks too crisp and clinical on
modern hardware.
