Internet Archive allows you to run Atari-games and old software directly in the browser

It took two years for the Internet Archive team to develop the JavaScript port of the MESS emulator, which allows it to run old games and software (such as the first table editor) right in a modern browser. According to the developers, the development allows you to run everything, from Atari-games to old-old software.

In order to make your project even more interesting, the developers created a whole collection of “historical software”, a collection that was named the Historical Software Collection .

Of course, the developers at Internet Archive did a really great job. It’s not enough just to keep old games and software. It is also necessary to achieve normal, correct work of the entire archive in a modern browser, so that current users can either remember what it was, or see old software and games for the first time, and be surprised.

The JavaScript emulator was named based on the name of its “forerunner” (MESS) - JSMESS.
