... (we played a Tank game
to death - first breaking the joysticks (which i fixed as a kid), then
wearing out the fire buttons (which I also replaced), and finally
killing the electronics. Wish I could find another one of those.
Yeah, that two player combat game was fun as hell and mine had a similar
maintinence record. Been looking for awhile now too and conclude none
survive.
Another great game not mentioned yet were the Atari Stunt Cycle and combo
consoles. btw: I jumped 37 busses a few weeks ago.
Those old games got it ergonomiclly right.
