I have the original LD of "Cliffhanger" the arcade game, got it off fleabay,
and a pioneer LD player, can't remember the model, I don't think I ever got the
interface working.
Then I found Daphne, and found an "emulation" for the LD player, along with
someone who had
done a lot of work to convert the LD to digital contents that Daphne could use.
I've actually gotten that running and played a little bit, it works very well,
but I find the controls exceedingly difficult.
Then again, I haven't played Cliffhanger since it was in the arcade, that might
account for much.
Still my favorite game from arcade days though
I have no idea about the legalities of sharing this stuff, but I figured since I owned the
original,
using the emulation was mostly ok, I have a legal right to the content...
ah fun times...
Dan.
