WOA was the brainchild of an arcade fan called: The Sheep

In 2006 I inherited the site from The Sheep and started hosting it on my server. My main goal was to add the newer CAVE games. I got a lot of help from great people but it took a lot of time to add new material.

Info regarding the site.

Important

WOA is not a secure site it uses: http and NOT https

If you access the site using https you will not get any images.

Lots of great info on this site!

 

[djsheep]

Top tier site!

https is a lot cheaper and easier to implement these days than it use to be.
I remember back when a cert was a $2K a year annual cost, now you can get it free through: https://letsencrypt.org/

One of my oldest bookmarks, still go back and read it from time to time.


Another oldie but goodie is DAM:

I still visit the site frequently, after so many years.
Thanks for keeping it going! Great resource.

Glad you all like the site, it has a few secrets which I always seem to forget about

The first one is very easy to find. When you've found it I'll post the next secret!

A certain cat has a small homage page.

Awesome! I have known your website since forever I have been involved in arcade 2013 (I know, late to the game ) - great resource to have.

You mean this one?

Also love this site and I think I had started looking at it from way back in 2003(?) (or am I imaging that it's been around that long?)

@supabok correct URL for UoPoko

Next up is Guwange, a banner is hiding here. I am looking for the filename.

You are far too good at this @supabok

Will post the next secret tomorrow.

I don't know how old this site is, but I'm pretty sure I've been looking at it with some regularity for over 18 years. Top tier resource, thank you!

 

[GeekMan1222]

Oh yeah this has been a great website for years sometimes I forget the actual name for some reason but with a few carefully phrased searches I usually always find it again

 

[mR_CaESaR]

I've been using that site for years too... I'm my ketsui marquee I've printed is from that site

Next up is a cover of a famous video cover, I am looking for the name of the file.

2000 leagues?

I have no idea @djsheep , those are just pictures from the original artist, I am looking for something a bit more hidden and with a picture of a fighter ...

 

[VJP]

one of my most visited pages. have already wondered why the images were not displayed in part, thanks for the hint with https.

Bought my first Guwange and ESP.Ra.De from The Sheep and picked up his Blast City a few years ago.
