What was that one where you had three cities at the bottom of the screen and you had to shoot down the missiles that were fired at them from the top of the screen. The arcade version had the ball to control aiming point. ?????Missile Command????. Just to show my age. I remember when my neighbor got a Pong game when they first came out. Two lines and a dot =waiting and sometimes fighting for your turn at the knob, hours of fun.

Had to make another post on this one. When stationed in Korea a friend of mine wrote "I think" the first ever duty roster program. Once the word got out every First Seargent in the country wanted it. This was back in the Vic20 and tape drive days AGGGG
