      Download any second generation console emulator (snes, genesis etc.) and you'll have more scrolling shooters than you can wave a gigantic atomic powered stick at. I recommend a game called viewpoint on the NeoGeo.

      try www.mame.dk

          for the computator: wolfenstein? doom? duke nukem? LOVE those games, don't know if you'd consider 'em "2d" enough though.

            No, stupid
            By your theory, all games are 2d

              How do I play games with MAME? Do I need ROMS? In that case, where can I get them?

                  uhhh..no, actually doom and wolfenstein are 2d, the game engine tricks your mind into thinking its 3 dimensional, when in fact the whole thing is 2d. There are no polygons to be found.

                        2d = Platform games. Go to DosGames.com for plenty. I recommend Duke Nukum 1-2. Also try Alien Carnage.
