NOW SPELL REDUNDANT

August 19, 2003 6:12 AM

Handheld Simulators for all your retro-gaming needs. Game & Watch a-plenty or here for a java version to get the flavour without the download. Get stuck into Merlin and finally show you are superior to his complex brain, or revert back even further and snuggle up to an old friend with a speech impediment.

So long, spare-time, it was nice knowing you...

Oh man, I always wanted a Speak and Spell, but never had one. *sniff* Thanks, Mr. Moo!

Does anyone remember the robot thing that played 8-tracks? It was mostly "educational" quizzes and stuff.

JoanArkham, I remember that. I wanted one when I was a kid, thanks to the magic of google I've found not one but two web pages on it. Not bad when I couldn't even remember the name.

I loved Merlin. Blackjack was always my favorite.

I owned Donkey Kong, Fire, and Egg. I rocked in Fire.

The first link is pretty much spooging content, a practice which the downstream Retrogames.com has apparently thwarted. this link will take you to the same information with working download links.
