Welcome to RetroMelsArchive.com! (BETA)

Flip your phone request
Welcome!
Before I welcome you, it appears you are using a phone. My Archive is optimized for use with a computer browser. I have tried my best to make it as usable as possible on a phone. For a better experience, please flip your phone, and this message will disappear.​
​This is a passion project of mine where I upload all the vintage software that I archive. Mainly because I enjoy the tinkering involved in archiving it, but also because I think some of it is pretty neat to preserve. The software on this site is not perfect though and you may encounter some read errors or glitchy programs but that is all in the game of old computers. I will also try to write (in an amateur way) some articles on how I archive to help other retro amateurs archive there own software libraries. This is all non profit of course so no ads and no paywalls popping up on this website. Hopefully you will find something nice to use on an emulator or one of your actual old computers. Over on my other website RetroMels.com you can check out my own weird collection of old computers and other stuff. 
​
Cheers,
​Mels

RetroMelsArchive is a hobby project aimed at archiving the software from my personal collection of vintage computer software and making it freely accessible to other retro enthusiasts. They can use it either with real hardware or emulators. If you happen to come across software that you would like to have removed, please use the request removal form. Since we are archivist not pirates. For any inquiries regarding the software on this site or other retro topics, you can contact me through Archive support. If you're interested in exploring all the hardware in my collection, please visit the "My collection" section on my other site, RetroMels.com.
