I think there should be a dividing line between pre 90's and post 90's
hacks. Pre-90's hacks are much more interesting to me as a collector since
the 2600 was still in the market. I guess it's just fascinating that they
got away with it. Some of them had licenses too, like Playaround.
The modern hacks don't interest me that much except for the improved
versions of games. Like "A Better Pac-Man" and "Asteroids Vector
Edition". It's just interesting to see what could have been done. Well,
and "The Real Donkey Kong" is just funny.
