@stux I've played first-in-genre games which are now so obscure, people only know of the game which popularized the genre.

It's definitely a weird feeling how much has become purely historical.

The moment 256-colour graphics were new. The moment multi-channel audio was new. The moment floppies stopped being used for most things (still used for some! WHY!?)

What else will simply disappear into the past? And will this be before floppies go away or after?

What about fax machines?
