    No sign of OpenFeint or Game Center that I could find.

    No cheeky ad banner, either :)

    Nope - all gone. My ad banner has gone now too. Was only there for the first hour or so whilst I was re downloading.

    quick edit 2: cheeky ad banner is back on my menu screen.

    With the iOS 8 update, do games support mifi controllers?

    I don't see one on any screen, cheeky or otherwise. Are you referring to the list screen or the one with the virtual machines on a virtual carousel?

    Edit: try hitting the restore purchases button on the list screen again.

    on the carousel. It comes and goes and just sits at the top of the screen. That lady from the game of war ads. They're gone now and all games now redownloaded.

    Never shows up for me. Weird...

    I hope you can get rid of it. I have an irrational hatred for ad banners, myself.

    I normally hate them too I have to say. Just got them again on my iPad this time as I was about to test on my iCade. Just on the carousel page again.

    If you purchase the 99-game bundle, does it remove the ads?

    I've never seen an advertisement in this app. I suggest deleting, reinstalling, and pressing "restore purchases." You'll need to download the games one by one, but they're all small and this process is painless.

    The update is good and the app is worth buying, especially the arcade games.

    Yey back to loving this agin now it's been updated. Was quite disappointed when I got my retina mini last week and this didn't work. (Not that I buy new devices just to play old games on ;) )

    I know its funny i've got a new iphone 6 and here i am playing MAME and old late 70's Atari games on it ! Huge shame we'll never get Space Invaders though, i know its not by Atari but just generally its a shame you cant get these other ones. Probably lots of red tape and legal loopholes etc

    So glad this is updated now! This and the activision anthology are great at allowing me to play the games I remember as a kid although now they seem dated still very fun.

    Well a lot of these games are total classics. Might appear basic now but i'm sure you'll agree that these games are all time greats. People will still be writing about some of these games in years and years to come.

    Graphics and sound might appear outdated but gameplay doesnt get old

    To make it complete, every fan should also take the Vectrex Emulation ... all three together are a must have for every fan! :D

    I agree, thats a brilliant app. Combined with an iCade it takes you right back to the early early 80's. Love those vector graphics

    The Atari app plus the Activision one are also brilliant, hope we get more.
