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!!
