And one mentioned running Windows 95
I was curios if this worked and i could get old games to run on it (probably would work on wine but the experience would be interesting)
I do see deb and rpm packates but nothing for Arch.
Before i build from source andyone have any experience unpacking deb/rpm for Arch ?

Alternatively you could give https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/debtap/ a try.
As for rpm, it's a binary format, but you can extract the actual file data in an xz or gzip compressed cpio archive with rpm2cpio. And of course there's also alien, which you can use to convert them into debs or (slackware) tgz files.
