You can now embed old computer games into tweets


The not-for-profit Internet Archive has been a boon for fans of classic video games. Thousands of games spanning old, outdated systems like the Atari 2600, Colecovision, and Vectrex are available to play, for free, right in your browser.
As it turns out, you also can drop them into tweets. Some of them, at least.
Chris Kohler over at Wired hipped me to this particularly awesome bit of Web know-how. If you tweet the URL of any of archive’s hundreds of MS-DOS games, it appears fully playable if you then view that tweet in a browser.
So for instance:
Sadly, this doesn’t yet seem to work with games from other systems in the archive (I would have popped the underappreciated Pitfall II in here in a heartbeat). It could have something to do with the functionality of DOX Box, the emulator software used to get these old computer games running. Console and arcade games run on other emulators like MAME and MESS, which currently aren't easily embeddable. 
But who cares? Master of Orion!
