Later, Monkey Island, Loom, Prince of Persia, Flashback.
Ditto. Also, Cannon Fodder.

I'm suprised the NES wasn't mentioned, I didn't mention it either so...
Gamespot made quite a review on this system and many of its classic games, it really made me laugh quite a few times. Fond memories of blowing into those tapes to play my Double Dragon game. The link is right here, but i must warn you that this video is almost 45 minutes. Very entertaining, hope you all enjoy it. (If you don't like the gamespot player, it can be viewed faster on the homepage.)

bold words rather than just listing the long

Oooh, Scarab of Ra!
That's one of my early games too.
I remember one time, though, that discouraged me (3-4 years old) from playing it. A monkey popped up and shreiked on max system volume, and scared the shit out of me (and also my mom who happened to be in the same room).
You can get it at the Mac Garden, BTW.

For those who don't know, it's a great site for Mac abandonware.
