Want to play some Atari?
Emulators have become a popular way to play classic video games, whether you’re looking for a quick blast of nostalgia or are a younger gamer who wants to experience classic games for the first time without having to track down vintage hardware. The Internet Archive, a non-profit organization with the purpose of building a freely accessible internet library, is now taking it a step further by adding web versions of classic 70’s and 80’s video games to its collection. It will mark an expansion of its Historical Software Collection and will come in the way of the Console Living Room beta, which lets users play hundreds of classic titles from the Atari 2600, Atari 7800, ColecoVision, Astrocade, and Magnavox Odyssey.
At this time it’s still in beta, and they are still working out some bugs. Shouldn’t be long until the service fixes them and everything runs smoothly.
