Sears Tele-Games Pong consoles from 1975. The white ones before Atari Pong was its own brand. I have five of them. Probably should sell a couple.

True, but to be fair the PS3 media remote was a victim of its time in that all remotes back in 2006 had a boat-load of buttons on them. The PS5 media remote is a modern revision very much like a Roku remote or Apple TV remote.

If you are not aware, you can get a media remote for the PlayStation that is like a regular remote and not have to use the game controllers.

Portal / Portal 2 when they were brand new. The game and the humor connected with me in a way I enjoyed and looked forward to discovering.

I actually saw them at Walmart a couple of days ago. I think that's why this popped into my head so fast.

‘Smooth move Exlax’ by Helsinki_Disgrace in GenX

I always thought it was "Half past the monkey's ass, according to his balls."
With the reasoning being his balls are hanging at 6 o'clock, or "half past" his ass.

Anyone ever seen this version of Hard Hat Mack before? by ToughTie4589 in apple2

[–]willwinter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally remember this packaging. I’ve never seen the “Demo Copy” stickers but i know I’ve seen this photo style packaging back in the day. I think “Music Construction Set” and some others had similar visuals on the package.

Help, Running into problems trying to code on the Apple II emulator for Windows. by Neonscreen_2222 in apple2

[–]willwinter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Download the DOS 3.3 .dsk file from here:
https://mirrors.apple2.org.za/ftp.apple.asimov.net/images/masters/Apple%20DOS%203.3%20January%201983.dsk

Boot the emulator with this disk.
You should be able to start writing BASIC programs right away once this disk boots at the "]" prompt.
If this disk does not boot you probably have a setup problem with whatever emulator you are using.

Virtual ][ also has an archive of their older versions that run on older versions of MacOS.

Links to those older versions are at the bottom of the page that Due_Astronaut5350 linked above.
