@MontyMole Skill! Got it correct! 😆

The ability to load the library on will sell this.

@Null2 They don't own anything Amiga related, just C64. They are working on it though but there's a lot of entities involved.

@gingerbeardman Koch Media I think.

@SlangWon Agreed! I tried it with screenshots from the TMNT show. The results were very impressive as long as it's one frame at a time.

@N64-ROX Good point! Nothing wrong with AI upscaling as long as you're checking what it's doing. For an art book though this is unforgivable.

@The_Nintendo_Pedant Eternal Champions is completely underrated, it deserves more praise.

I get the impression Retro Achievements are coming then.

@Sketcz I always preferred the western packaging although in some instances I prefer the Japanese artwork.

@Sketcz I still have nightmares about the escort missions in Max Payne II. I was using cheats by the way. 😂

I'd love to see remasters of the third person Duke Nukem games.

This is a very common problem and it needs to stop!

Road Rage next. 😊

@Atariboy I do get the impression they weren't going to do much with it and I know people wanted something that allowed physical media to be used. The Amico anyway was trying to be an evolution of that. In hindsight it would have been better to merge both ideas.

@The_Nintendo_Pedant I mean I'm the type of person who doesn't always like things the populous find fantastic. My opinions don't always align with consensus but I don't try to be contrarian to rub people the wrong way. 👍

@mjparker77 No I really don't. I'm a bit more grown up not to see interest or disinterest in a games console as 'haters' or 'cultists'.

@mjparker77 I mean they tried. To say they did nothing at all is wrong.

@The_Nintendo_Pedant You weren't being really rude towards me compared to a few other people here but saying it's endearing to someone who doesn't think I'm sane at all is I admit a little patronising. Anyway, thanks for the clarification. It's difficult to tell with people here since the mob mentality is quite strong about that console.

@mjparker77 It's not set in stone the console will be released but it's always been in their plans. 👍

@mjparker77 The original owners wanted to do something more than just repackage the old games.

@The_Nintendo_Pedant I was talking about the collection. The games are mixed in quality. The first two are supposed to be the best. I don't think the original two are that bad. Just to note though I shouldn't be treated differently for having interest in something you don't. 👍

@Quick_Man "and Pat and Ian... aren't snubbing him online too?"

No they're complaining about him almost every week for eight years because he disrespected them.

"Tommy's words are somehow epic cool and based while Pat and Ian's words are mean and harmful and unfair?"

Epic and cool? Did I say that or are you projecting your assumptions?

"and they've been the best at covering the trainwreck lmao. They haven't gotten anything substantial wrong"

We are indeed living in different realities if you think they didn't get anything wrong. This is one of the main problems I have with their audience. They DON'T RESEARCH around the podcast. They want to hate something and because the CUPodcast's feelings were hurt they made it their mission to create a mob mentality. They love the attention though, I've noticed. 😂

"but if you actually BELIEVE Alvarado with no proof or evidence to his claim that the tech would be "updated" [jesus christ], then this conversation is pointless."

Don't shoot the messenger, just stating what he said. 👍

@Quick_Man Me having an interest in the Amico doesn't mean I live in an alternate reality. I just don't have a mob mentality. 😉

@The_Nintendo_Pedant I'm looking at Steam and it's mostly positive reviews. What are the criticisms of the collection?

@The_Nintendo_Pedant Poorly received? 🤔

@Quick_Man "Acting like the CUPodcast haven't been attacked by Tommy tenfold"

They weren't. Tallarico snubbed them online and they got angry and spent the next eight years complaining about him and the console almost every week on the podcast, to this day.

"[and that Pat and Ian aren't COMPLETELY CORRECT] is really, really funny."

They weren't completely correct. They got things wrong but the mob would like to believe they got everything correct due to their bias.

"And "confirmed to have improved tech"? Confirmed by literally WHO?"

I asked John Alvarado on a stream and he said the tech was going to be updated when the console was released. It is not fan fiction. There is no official confirmation yet however.

Wow, well I wasn't expecting the game to get an update like this. Nice! 👍

This is a Intellivision Flashback guys. 🤔

I had no idea there was so much hype for this in the UK. Amazing. 😲

@Quick_Man The new game is doing pretty well as is the collection.

@The_Nintendo_Pedant Well it is.

We need a UK equivalent now to drool over. 😉

I think Palmer Lucky's will be out first so not a good look for them.

I think it's a good name.

@JackGYarwood It's a little joke I like to make about this game whenever I hear about it. 😂

Regardless if the system is bought and taken apart to be shown it's outdated tech. The eventual console has been confirmed to have improved tech so right now the Amico sold is very much a prototype. I'm more interested in the new specs.

I find it ironic however @damo continues using the CUPodcast as a source for Amico news when they have not only attacked him numerous times on their podcast but used his work without permission? 🤔

@Daniel36 The complete opposite. The detractors very much want this looked at internally. I think it's pointless but...

@HammerGalladeBro For backgammon she sure is! 😂

@PinballBuzzbro The system does have games and have been shown to work.

@mjparker77 Anyone interested in the console was being called a 'cultist' so that's the age mentality of people obsessed with it I guess. 🤷‍♂️

Guys, guys, it's not called Sacred Line, it's called 'Sasha Darko's' Sacred Line. 😂

Jaguar or Lynx probably.

Edutainment titles, especially on console aren't going to sell.

"Some games showcase audio issues such as skips or stutters, too – this is especially bad on the SNES titles included in the package."

Piiiiiikkkkoooooo! 🙄

Master System wasn't given much of a chance in Japan and the US. Coupled with Sega's poor communication between their regions it's understandable why the user base was small.

Cool, now we need the other games.

I'm still not sure the remaster of Broken Sword 2 will end up any better than the original apart from the HD art. 🤔

@PKDuckman Considering these collections are supposed to educate you can understand how damning and frustrating I find that. I have called them out on this a number of times.

@rob7979 I think all the old ports should be included regardless if they're good or not and yep I agree, the SMS ports are incredible. Not sure what the issue is with emulation on those.

Still waiting for them to add the home computer and Master System versions of games to these collections. These aren't really complete collections.

That's really awesome!

@RejectedAng3L If they have the Mega Drive version I doubt getting the rights to the Saturn version would be an issue. If it's an emulation issue because they don't have an emulator companies like this shouldn't be re-releasing games if they aren't prepared to emulate the various ports. I know that sounds greedy of me to say that but only releasing ports for a collection because you have an emulator for it is very frustrating...hello Digital Eclipse! 😆

@Deuteros They ported the sequel and then ported the original. I can't remember which was better.

@RejectedAng3L It's a real shame as it's a great kart racing game. A collection of ports should really have every port if possible regardless if they're good or bad. The lack of Amiga ports in these collections is really starting to get on my nerves. 🙄

@Tasuki Ubisoft aren't really involved in publishing it.

I think this looks alright but it's way too expensive.

I get the impression Damien doesn't like AI... 😂

Well it worked out great for Sony but not Sega. 😪

@RenderSpotlight I agree. Mega CD is very underrated.

The Amiga version port or its sequel is supposed to be good.

I didn't even know there was a mobile game. 😲

Interesting to see what's found with these cancelled games.

No superior PS1 and Saturn versions...

Also why do these collections always leave off the Amiga versions??? 🙄
