Seeing the juggler, and lots of other gee-whiz stuff in 1986 inspired me to buy an Amiga 500 as my first computer in 1988. I got a lot of mileage out of that system, with its whopping 1.5MB of RAM, and two floppy drives (after shelling out another ~$150 for the 1MB upgrade and however much for an external floppy).
- ConceptJunkie 2mo agoI also have really fond memories of Cinemaware's Three Stooges game. That's one I'd love to play again. It even had some digitized voices, sound effects and photos of the Stooges. It consisted of several mini-games you had to play in order to make enough money in 30 days to save the orphanage. One had you wheeling a patient through a hospital, avoiding obstacles, and included a clip of "Calling Dr. Howard, Dr. Fine, Dr. Howard". Another had Curly trying to eat oyster soup. Another had one of the stooges dashing through town to get a violin for Larry to play. And the best one was the pie fight stage. There might have been one or two more, but it was a really cool game with excellent graphics for the time.
