“A large cause of the video-game crash of 1983-84 was that as more and more publishers sprung up to grab a quick buck churning out low-quality software for the popular game systems; consumers and retailers couldn’t sort through the dreck.”

I saw that you guys were having some issues with mprotect? What's funny is that there was an emulator (Chip-8) just approved as per TouchAracde, and Frotz's z-machine is up there.</p> That’s disappointing.
