1983 Vintage Apple II Games

I scored some sweet Apple II games in mint unopened boxes for $5 each. You can’t get much better than that! I almost feel bad opening them!
I haven’t played these games in this format in a good 20 years. My kids have been playing on their Wii all night, so they should be good for a laugh.
The Moon Patrol box is a little bit larger than the 5.25” floppy, but the Pac-Man and Donkey Kong boxes are magazine sized. Much bigger than I expected/remember.

Pac-Man






The game starts up and gives you the choice of playing with the keyboard or a joystick. You then choose how many players.

Ah yeah!!!!


Gotta love the audio coming from the Apple II.

Donkey Kong






Of course, the games run on either the II or the IIc.




Moon Patrol






I wasted the better part of my youth trying to beat this game on my //c. I don’t think I every got to the end. I sure miss the color display I had. This game looked pretty cool in color.


Good times. Good times. Needless to say, my 5 and 7 year olds got a kick of these. I think I’m in the market for a new joystick.
