I had the 32X version of this (was I the only one who owned a 32X? Possibly). Thanks for the heads up! :)

You weren't. Unfortunately, I didn't have any games. :P

At least I had something for the Mega CD.

They released a version of Blackthorne for the SNES way back when. That was my first introduction to Interplay.

If you don't want to bother with us.battle.net just download SNES9x or ZSNES, download the SNES ROM for Blackthorne, plug in the 8+ button controller of your choice, and it's SNES Time. I suggest sourcing the emulator/rom from Vimm's Lair, NitroROMs, Zophar's Domain, or just hit up Google.

Great. I'll download it when I get home. What kind of gameplay is it? Is it like diablo or warcraft or something?

I'd say "Prince of Persia", but you'd probably still be imagining it wrong. :)
It's like the original Prince of Persia. With a shotgun.

Thanks for sharing. Hope they decide to put up The Lost Vikings now that they have a "Classic Games" section. Or at least sell it on GOG or something.

It does, but you have to change from eu.battle.net to us.battle.net. I'm Hungarian and I could download the game.

I don't think it should matter, no need to use a piracy website. Just create an account on Blizzard's usa site. I got it from outside USA too. Many games on that site are currently being sold on GOG, GMG, or other sites.

Blizzard doesn't abandon, sorry.
Blizzard redid it for modern PCs.
They are intending to do the same with
Warcraft: Orc & Humans, Warcraft II: The Tides of Darkness & Warcraft II: Beyond the Dark Portal.
And possibly to update Warcraft III & Diablo as well.

Since they're currently using it for promotional reasons then it can't possibly be considered abandonware. Fact is that majority of the titles included on that site are simply put into that category because of an assumption by the site owners. It still remains piracy.

You don't need a new account if you already have one (region doesn't matter, you can always change to the us.battle.net site).
