[comp.sys.amiga] Taito, Nintendo and Sega Game Ports

MSPINNER@POLYGRAF.BITNET (02/03/89)

  Well, I've been told by a friend that
   a) Ninentendo and Sega system games are prototype on Amigas
   b) and that these games are ported to their respective ROM's

  Is this true?  Does this mean a flood of over 70 Sega games, 100 of
NES/et al games will enter the Amiga world?  Somebody pinch me! Quick!
The possiblity of this happening will definitely be a boon for Amiga to
finally stop the wave of yupsters thinking the NES/SEGA *game* machines
can outpreform the Amiga!!!  When I think about it - it makes sense that
the Amiga is comparable (arcade-wise) to its small-box cousins.


  On a side note -- any news on Targa boards for the Amiga??
  All the possible HW boards to add a 68020/68881 to an A1000??
  (i.e. Lucas and A6245?? et. al.)
  New GenLocks with mass Megs of memory??
  A possible SONIX/DCMS combo music program?? (a better SMUS format)
  The bargain over the A2088/A2286 bridgeboards for A2000/A2500 systems
  Approximate release date of A3000??  AmigaDOS 1.4???

  These and many more questions are sure to be asked....


Caio!

  I claim all this has NOT been drug-induced... 'Nuff said!

	Highly unlikely.  Nintendo is 6502, Sega is Z80.
