Internet Archive Software Emulation 2014-12-23, 12:44:55 Two hours ago, the Internet Archive opened up its first MS-DOS straight-in-browser emulation. For example, you can now check out Castles that way. I used to play Arcade Volleyball with my friends.Don't forget, this is on top of the already extant JSMESS emulation of over 600 systems. An example of that is Wordstar. I hope Microsoft Works 2.0 will come to the MS-DOS emulation, because I'm just not sure if I've got the actual program anymore myself, and if I do it's on a possibly deteriorating floppy disk.

Re: Internet Archive Software Emulation Reply #2 – 2015-01-01, 20:22:54 I doubt it's very good for extended playing. While I think command-line skills are useful (perhaps slightly less in the outdated DOS sense), also see http://www.dosbox.com/wiki/DOSBoxFrontends

Re: Internet Archive Software Emulation Reply #4 – 2015-04-21, 23:14:14 Much better. My son didn't appreciate the other site (lol). Surely this will be more to his liking. Thx
Re: Internet Archive Software Emulation Reply #5 – 2016-09-01, 17:09:38 They've now added some old game called Karateka. (This probably means a lot if you lived in the '80s.) Including alpha/beta versions.http://ascii.textfiles.com/archives/5039
