    ZODIAC 'Pay 2 play'

    I think you're confusing freeware, shareware and commercial software. The fact is, the only thing hampering *some* emulation is the GPL'd release of certain parts of the SDK. NesEm is a commercial product. There's nothing stopping anyone, Ryleh for example, charging for their emus. If you dig...

    Coleco emulator - speed issues?

    No. You're not an idiot. You could be perfectly right. I haven't actually tried this yet (still using GPColem - not 100% compatible, but runs a sensible speed). So I shouldn't really be chipping when I'm so badly informed. Toodle-pip. M.

    Throttle - as in strangle something.

    mame emulator

    Erm, you're right, of course. *cough* I do own a number of old JAMMA boards and box full of old ROM chips *cough* not that I'm saying what's on them. *cough*. Still, you can pick up some old, and not so old cabinets and roms for a song. Or some newer stuff too. Wouldn't say no to Star Wars...

    mame emulator

    You're right about the Coleco versions... along with the PCE, C64 and Castaway, there are a few good conversions. However, there are a lot of titles missing or that have been ported badly. A few that spring to mind are: Lunar Lander TimePilot Gorf Gauntlet Ghosts 'n Goblins Moon Cresta Tron...

    fCPC32 first beta by Rlyeh

    Was only kidding :P seeing as I owned a speccy and C64, while a good friend had a 464 (with colour monitor). That said, I remember Green Beret being a decidedly *flip* screen experience. However, I could be wrong here, but I do remember the 6128 had the only 8-bit version of Hitchhikers...

    Roms at ebay?

    Most countries have some form of copyright law - which usually cover blatent acts of unlawful selling such as this. However, enforcement is another thing altogether. Witness Hong Kong and Malaysia.

    Roms at ebay?

    Selling is illegal. The vendor is not the owner the products he has aggregated, has aggregated them illegally, duplicated without permissions and is seeking to profit from someone else's IP.

    the so-called "PSX" generation

    Christ - just be thankful your label's the PSX generation! Me, I'm the ZX81 generation - black and white with no sound, you feeling that?

    Chaos on speccy

    Can I suggest: World Of Spectrum It has plenty of games where the author or publisher has given the go-ahead for distribution.

    Nintendos Ique

    I be all over this if I thought I could write my old rom sets to the flash card.

    Wastelands and Frodo help.

    Yeah - unfortunately Wasteland appears to be a complete no-go on GP Frodo. A real shame as it's one of the greatest games ever. Still, even if you got it running you'd need to carry the paragraphs book with you :P As for Bruce Lee and Paradroid - I've had no success there either. I'm not...

    Unsung Hero - GPColem

    Forgot about Spy Hunter - it's as good as arcade perfect. That's what happens when you post messages after getting up a some dumb hour in the morning... Haven't tried Bump 'n' Jump - but there are definitely a few titles that don't work no matter what.

    Unsung Hero - GPColem

    Thanks to my young daughter waking me up an a stupid hour this morning, I've had a few bonus hours to play my GP32. I haven't had the chance to pick it up in a few weeks and... I have to say that for anyone who hasn't tried CPColem yet, you're missing out. It's simply fantastic. I never had...

    Emulation Explanation

    Speccyal'K v0.6 is almost there in terms of near-perfect Speccy emulation. It runs most games and is easy to use. Jeff, if you've never tried a Spectrum game - have a pop at JetPac, Knightlore, Manic Minor or Jetset Willy, you won't regret it. Otherwise I'm sure the good folk at...

    Apple ][

    The first version of Wasteland (which doesn't run in Frodo on GP32- arrgghhhh)? OK - so not produced by Apple, but it did run on the ][

    Help me decide between GP32 and Zodiac

    Hi Mate - just seen your post on Zodiacgamer as well, it's not suprising the the views on that site where pro Zodiac in the same way the views here are pro GP32. Essentially, you are getting more bang for your buck with a Zodiac. It's expandable in ways the GP32 isn't, has access to a strong...

    I have an idea to increase GP32 awareness

    Depends on where you are. Despite evidence to the contrary (i.e. poster everywhere), in the UK fly posting comes under the jurisdiction of local authorities and is illegal. Punishable by a fine from local magistrates. As Tobriand says, you would have to get permission from the owner of the...
