- Now that we're talking about the old "classics"...I'd love to have some
- of them back again...the disks have (over time, and through use) gone
- "bad"...
-
- My question is this...are these games still available?? Ie: Can you
- still legally buy them??
- Games such as:
- mule
- jumpman, jumpman jr.
- and etc.
-
- I suspect that in many cases these games are "out-of-print"...how does
- one now go about acquiring them, if the company has gone defunct...
- is copying now "fair game"???
