The archive at "The BBC Lives!" (based at http://www.nvg.ntnu.no/bbc/sw)
has tons of games, though not yet Superior, Acornsoft or Computer
Concepts games (for the reasons you mention - but they can be found
elsewhere).  Most likely, you'll find what you want.  If I should make a
wild guess, I think the archive also has roughly 80-90% of the games in
existance (if you don't count the above mentioned).  I still have some
huge donated collections to wade through, though...    

As always, if anybody comes across a game they haven't found in the
archive, contributions are most welcome.  I have especially had quite a
few requests for educational titles, and this is a weak part of the
archive, considering the Beeb's dominance in British schools.
