Upload your old DOS games and play them in your Browser anywhere

[Soliloquy]

There's a really interesting program called NaCLBox. It's pretty much a browser-based DOS emulator, but has an interesting take on how it works.

From what I understand, you upload the old DoS games that you own, and are able to play these games from any browser anywhere. But you're only able to play the games that you upload -- so it's not a piracy site. It's a... cloud-based hard drive that you can install games on, I guess?

Still not sure about the legality of it all, but this seems like it could be a lot of fun. I think I'm going to upload my copy of Dark Forces.

So it's like DOSBox, but ... in the Cloud?

Wholly-Crap! I still have all my old DOS games... Civilization... man I missed that game.

I've got a mountain of old DOS games I could use this on.

Whoa. Wizard's Crown here I come!

Looking into it, it looks like it only works on Chrome (and requires a free Chrome Plug-in). But it also comes with a free copy of Descent. And Jazz Jackrabbit.

I'm thinking that I may have to play some So You Want to Be a Hero.

So many happy memories of countless hours spent in pain and suffering, trying to control that damn ship.

You may want to look over here, then.

Where is it?! WHERE THE FUCK IS MY TIE FIGHTER CD?!

RTZ? Dune? 7th Guest? Long has it been since we have played... We shall play again.

 

[PatrThom]

We'll see if it can handle something like Torin's Passage.
