I do believe they have removed all the games from simtel20.

Not sure the reasoning behind it.

Could be they got flack for having games on a govt. machine, afterall

it is  wsmr-simtel20.army.mil

They have tons of stuff and they may have been running out of space
too.  SO they may have tried to streamline what they carry.

Only my opinions.  I don't know the real answer, but I do know that 
all the games are gone, both DOS and UNIX games.
