"The first known arcade emulation available publicly was the Williams Digital Arcade series from Digital Eclipse Software, released for the Macintosh in 1994. This series featured the Williams Electronics' arcade classics Joust, Defender and Robotron: 2084. In 1995, it was repackaged and expanded upon as Williams Arcade Classics for the PC." --Wikipedia.org

Nice one, thanks!
Thanks MCP. I remember running this on a SLOW 68030 PC, and it was very playable, and identical to the arcade experience!
PS. Thanks for the screenshots and updates!
Thank you themacmeister for uploading! I've added an archive combining the Joust upload with this one for the full Digital Arcade experience, and included some patches that are supposed to convert Robotron to Stargate, and some additional photos from the web.
Thanks MCP - you truly are the Master Control Program!
This is indeed the three games in the Williams Digital Arcade; if you put them in the same directory as the Joust upload on this site, the "Digital Arcade" game launcher will work for all three games. I'll fix up this page some more over the next couple days with screenshots and an improved archive.
