I'm doing some experimenting with a media PC and could use some advice on awesome games that com on one single disc, and that can be played with a one-button joystick (going to use the remote for control).

Speedball 2 is a given, as are the two first Lotus games.  Any other games I need in this collection? B)
Beating the dead horse since 2002.

Doesn't that describe nearly every platformer made?

That might be, but it's possible to finish it without ever touching the Shift key :)

I'm pretty sure these need a second button to control the power-up.

You can just hold down the button. It does play much nicer with a second button though

I'd have to play a platformer with a remote control! Something like populous or megalomania or sim city or settlers would be better. Can't multi-disk games be whdloaded or something?
