Wow, I just had a flood of childhood memories of me and the mates crossing the road after school to the local Fish n Chip shop and ordering dims dims, potatoe cakes, chips, and chiko rolls. Then it was off to the local ten pin bowling alley to play Gallaga, 1942, and other now classics. Those were the days.

Did the company that made Chiko rolls ever change the logo or advertising? And I could never for the life of me work out what the hell was inside a chiko roll? Who cares, tasted great. Last time I had one was about 12 years ago at Parramatta Raceway watching Sprintcars.
Get the MAME32 emulator and you can play those games once again!
