It was really only good for hobbyists or people doing very specific work. I used it professional for basic graphics, titling, some backgrounds, etc and for a bit more once I got a toaster. It was great for learning to code. Being able to have your editor, debugger, tools, and program all running in on the same screen was great. And being able to pirate a large library of mostly decent games was a big plus. DP, music, back office were all done on Mac, PC or ST.

Then dad would come home from work and I'd watch him play Pirates!, Worms, Civilization, Elvira or Street Rod. There was just so much to see, play and discover.

I hate how people here are retroactively changing the past so these computers are considered children's toys.
they were personal computers that adults would buy to do their taxes on and make grocery lists and so kids could write their book reports on it and print it out instead of writing it, and to balance finances.
playing games on it was a neat side effect, but 95% of people did not just say "here ya go kid, your own personal computer, enjoy your games!"
kids played it because the ADULTS owned one.

I'm sardinian and growing up I had an amiga and it was a blast. when I was a kid, every once in a while on saturdays, my dad would take his bike and go buy a dozen of cracked games on floppy from a shady guy who lived in the basement of a building, while my mom ordered a load of "pizzette al taglio", small "sandwich" pizzas, very popular around these parts. friends would come over and we'd eat and try out all the newer games for hours, laughing at all the quirky shit that would come on screen. then my dad and one of his best friends Paolo would put on kick off 2 or one of many sensible soccer versions and play a couple matches, laughing their heads off.

those were very simple times and I remember them fondly. jumping to windows 95 was weird and I really didn't want to let the amiga go, but duke nukem, diablo, quake and the others quickly made me change my mind. sorry for the blog, I just felt like sharing my amiga memories.

[Anonymous No.5945373]

I just didn't grow up in a place where Amiga was popular, it's just that, Commodore was popular in America only briefly with the Vic-20 and 64, but their main market with the Amiga was basically Europe and they couldn't find a way to sell it anywhere else.

Didn't help that their management sucked for the most part either, i mostly only really knew about Amiga thanks to the Internet, but even then, it's a tough sell to retro gamers, a lot of it's games are on other systems too, and quite a few of it's exclusives or major games really don't look that good or fun in videos.

Seriously, i can't look at Zool without my mind thinking "Wow, this mascot platformer game looks awful" and Superfrog is the same way, Wings has an interesting thing with it's writing but the actual gameplay where you fly the plane just...looks really damn rough on a video and such.

I dunno, am i the only one that thinks a lot of videos don't make most Amiga games actually look that interesting or fun to play, not that DOS is much better particularly with it's older games, but still, looking at videos of Amiga games just makes me think "Not that fun" or "It's in other systems" for the most part.

Not that it doesn't have good games because it does.

Converting from and to amiga image formats (even images in HAM6 or HAM8 mode) is pretty easy anyway. Usually ImageMagick and especially the netpbm package does cover everyones needs.

Honestly, a lot of them felt really amateur-ish, console like games i mean, particularly when they were trying to imitate japanese games like Sonic.

It's like the developers had perfectly fine games to look at and learn from, but thought they knew better and many times led to games that weren't fun or had serious flaws, even Turrican sometimes had camera problems.

There's a reason why few if any console-like game on the Amiga survives nowadays, they tried to bring back Shadow Of The Beast but it failed, either because it wasn't a masterpiece or the franchise is not that popular, Gods got a big remastered version with the original being included and no one talks about it, James Pond is so meh that the only thing the owner of the license did with it was...one crappy mobile game years ago.

Sure, there are games like Magic Pockets and Ruff'N'Tumble that Amiga fans like but...while console games like them are still pretty well remembered, only some Amiga fans seem to like them, and only the best examples in Amiga, a few times talking as if the games were much better than they were.

I can understand Turrican as the series is good, but i swear some people can write long diatribes about why Gods is awesome and i...just can't see it at all.

>even fans of those consoles seem to not know about their existence
I'm a fan but I also had an Amiga and did not care for inferior ports. Have there been Amiga to console ports that were superior to the originals because of more buttons, no loadtimes, etc?

Out of those, only Worms really got popular on consoles as far as i know, and i associate Worms with the PS1 and systems after that, though there was a Game Boy version.

Though some Amiga games had popular PC ports.

Cannon fodder and populous were pretty popular

>i associate Worms with the PS1 and systems after that
maybe so but the fact remains it was an amiga game that was ported to the snes and genesis like the initial question asked.

Why do I get the impression the presenter of that show is fucking every woman on the show. I have no idea the roles played by the ones who aren't his wife but I strongly suspect something is up, it's baked in somehow, with the asmr voice.

I dunno about superior, but the ports of Chaos Engine got a bit less ridiculous. The Amiga original you were forever taking chip damage from enemies that spawn on top of you and bullets that fired from off-screen that you couldn't dodge because the push scrolling required you to be 20 pixels from the edge. The consoles ones were still bullshit, but the 60fps controls meant you could at least dodge.

Some ports did have some good stuff that wasn't in the Amiga, the console ports of Gods had music through the entire game, sure, i saw someone saying it ruins the atmosphere and what not, but honestly...never thought Gods had much of that nor that it was a good game, the Amiga had better platformers and let's not even mention the 16-Bit consoles.

As for Chaos Engine...wow, talk about a game i have heard a lot about, have kinda wanted to play it but every time i look at it...doesn't actually seem that good or fun, but a big part of it is that the screen just looks small in a weird way, and it doesn't always seem to be fair with the challenge being cheap.

It's still a top-down shooter, but oof, doesn't exactly seem like a blast to play these days.
