You're up next for Retro Monday, can you pop 3 games in the thread and I will get a poll up.

@Iamthesladman, I'll stick you into the list dude, if jawa isn't about by next Monday then you can have a pick, if jawa is, then it's between the 2 of you to choose

Yay!

So I'm going to resubmit my failing entries from last time along with a new contender:

Cannon Fodder (Amiga)
Chaos Engine (Amiga)
Strider (Arcade/MD)

Not sure what the stance on arcade versions is so feel free to go with the MD version of Strider if that wins, it's still great but the arcade version is the king!

I have only done 1 Arcade game for the 4 player co-op fun. I haven't really bothered with Arcade games as I find them a pain to get working half the time and when Devlin was doing ARcade Attacks I thought the arcade games were being covered in another way so didn't see the point in doing them if that makes sense?

I'll have a think about the arcade Strider though.

Also, the poll is up!

Interestingly enough one of these games was potentially one of my choices in the the event I was chosen.

They’re all good but Cannon Fodder is amazing

It's a classic tune.

Looks like Cannon Fodder is up for tonight. See you at 9!

Won't be long

Sorry. I have literally zero clue how to get the Amiga emulator working. NONE AT ALL.

Yeah, this isn't happening. I have no idea what the strawberry float I am meant to do to even get a game to load.

What Emu you using and do you have a set of Kickstarts?

FS-UAE is pretty easy to use but you need to have a set of Kickstarts (Amiga BIOS files).

WinUEA. I have the Kickstarts needed for the Amiga 500 and CD32

Never used that one, I use FS-UAE with a full set of Kickstarts. Once you install it it works like any other emu, just point it to where the games and BIOS are and away you go.

I have no idea what I'm doing, even with that emulator. Nothing loads.

strawberry float it.

Maybe take Amiga games off the menu until you get it sussed, or failing that just play the SNES version.

Eek, sorry Pedz!

Amiga emulation is still a bit trickier than some other systems but I thought it would be workable. The SNES version is a decent fallback and as long as the emulator supports it you can still play with the mouse which makes a big difference!
