Joust is an old Atari game where you run around on ostriches trying to kill each other. Or something like that.

It was. You had to hit the button to flap the wings. The higher fighter killed the lower. you had an pool of lava on the bottom and gradually reduction of ledges to stand on. Plus a pterodactyl that was hard to kill

It was fun! Sadly, the shockwave.com version dosn't quite do it justice.
Even my old NES version of the game was easier to controll than that!
But perhaps I'm just out of practice...

I know what you mean. My dad found an old Atari game "Bruce Lee" we used to love in the 80's-- but the replication had timing that was completely different, so the old tricks didn't work...

Assuming suggesting additions to the arcade is fair game, I know that Theology Web has copies of Duckhunt and Breakout, although where they got these I don't know. (I guess that's a question for Crisme, or whatever he's calling himself now).

You are, of course, free to suggest adding any game you want. However, I'm not sure I'll be adding things any time soon.
