How long have these been available as apps?! Just got both on my ipad, officially mid blown that a couple of games i had to get on a train for half an hour to go to an arcade that had them, is now on a hand held device that i can play at any time, for FREE.

And yes, i know how old this makes me sound. When i was a kid these games were the stuff of legend. Finding one was like the evil fortress in krull, they never seemed to be in the same arcade for more than a day.

Hated them with a passion. No clue when to do anything, and the requirement for fast twitch muscles that would make Usain Bolt green with envy.
