I don't think this has been posted already, but anyway, a port more than 30 years in the making, the only issue I see with it, is that you can only have either SFX or music, not both...which is strange, more as you are using the more beefed up Amiga's to run it...so so I don't think it is quite as arcade perfect as it could be..

In my comprehensive school, consoles were seen for little kids or people with no friends, where the only girl they kissed was MUM, There was a real stigma against consoles back then, in my neck of the woods. That didn't start to really change until Sonic on the Mega Drive, where everyone fell in love with the character and the game and where sales exploded beyond belief.

You really think that ? For real ?
Like people suddenly find consoles games to be cool and for adults because of Sonic ?
Man, some of the Sega fanboys really lives in their Sonic dreams.

Not adults as we were still kids in school , but Sonic was the game where none gamers and more so girls in school started to like video games in a big way and sales exploded.

SEGA UK then just built on that with big sports sponsorship and various celebrities playing then games and hardware. Making the system much cooler and not just for nerds , then FIFA came out on the Mega Drive and that game marked the 1st time I saw adult men talking about video games and how amazing FIFA was .

Does make me laugh where this slags off the original that was designed to run on a stock A500 with 512mb memory then this one needs a minimum A1200 with a 68030 co-processor and 10mb of RAM to even load!!

I remember doing a 12 hour gaming session for the first time in my life, playing an RPG on my Amiga called Bloodwych. Good times.
