The non-profit organization "Archive of the Internet" has published on its website a series of new game emulators. This time, the organization made it possible to play games that had a unique plastic case and control scheme, such as Tetris.

We're not talking about Game Boy or PSP, which are full-fledged pocket consoles, but pocket games. All of them came out closer to the end of the last century and are hardly familiar to most of the inhabitants of the post-Soviet space. Apart from the legendary Tamagotchi, these are quite rare interpretations of popular projects - Pac-Man, Contra, Sonic, Battletoads, and so on.

The authors had to work hard to create emulators for these projects. In many cases, they were forced to take apart the game - for example, to scan a screen on which a static background was drawn.

The organization has shared old games with Internet users before. For example, on the site you can try projects for DOS and Amiga.
