As far as C64 games and online play - it's amazing how far things have come since those days. Back then, multi player was plugging two joysticks in.
Have you ever played the game I'm talking about? I THINK it was called Weather Wars. You would share one joystick and take turns launching different "storms" at the other person picking the angle and intensity of the weather phenomenon. You could use lightning, hail, wind, tornados, etc... It was pretty fun back then but I think now, over 20 years later, I would be less than enthralled.

Windjammers is essentially a pong game in concept but it's deep and has plenty of style. A blast for two people. I think NeoGeo is the system I was most happy to get emulated simply because of the cost to purchase the real system and games. Either that or the PC Engine, I'll never forget the first time I was able to play Dracula X: Rondo of Blood.
