You are doing perfect ports of old arcade machines.

That's incredible, and it shows that the Amiga could have had perfect arcade ports at the start of its life.

but if you truly want your name immortalized in the Amiga scene, here is the next game you should try:

Outrun.

We dont want the arcade perfect sprite scaling monster 2x68000 port. This is impossible on the Amiga.

We want a version that is as close to the arcade machine as possible.

Some other guy is doing a perfect port of the game that uses enhanced Amigas. That's super nice, but it does not prove the Amiga as we knew it, i.e. the base model, could do Outrun justice.

We want Outrun for A500, or A1200. We want to prove to the other platforms that the Amiga could have had an almost perfect port of Outrun, if it didn't fall to the wrong hands (i.e. U.S. Gold).

There are currently 2 ports of Outrun being developed. One for big configs, and one for lowly A1200s, that should cover it.

What about A500 ECS though?

By the way, do you happen to have a link to information on the lowly 1200 version?

they're planning a ECS version if possible. I wouldn't hold my breath though.

Thanks for the link, highly appreciated...

What? JOTD  not immortalized yet? Forget the arcade game ports.. just take a look at the WHDload project! And where we would be without it?!?
