Actually, I have a few of questions:
1> What the hell happened to ChampGames? They had such great stuff. I
assume they closed their "virtual doors" because noone bought any of
their
games (including myself...always 'planned' on it) :(
I guess you never really know what you have until it is gone. Sorry I
didn't buy one, Champ.
2> Do you think another attempt at such a company would be feasible? I
mean, if I were to start making old 80s clones (or maybe bring back life
into the genre), do you think people would buy them?
How much would you guys pay for a Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Jr., Popeye,
Dig
Dug, etc.?
I mean only downloads...no floppies. Of course the games would have to
be
fun as hell to play.
$2.50 (US), $4? $5? $10?
Any info would be great. Sure would be nice to pull out some of my old
source code!!
