I have an example of a budget title:  3D Pinball from the Coffee
Break series.  Trying to play pinball from the perspective of the ball
itself is just a bad idea.  I don't know why I bought into it
(literally).  But worse, it wouldn't run properly on my lowly 286-16 (at
a time when 486's were becoming the standard).  When you tried to
enter your name in the hall of fame, pressing a single key left an
entire name of that character.  (For example, L became LLLLLLLLL.)

I even wrote nasy comments on my registration card, which caused them
to send me an updated version.  I was impressed that they did that,
but it didn't work any better than the original.
