Good choice of ROMS. We had most of these on our Amiga 500. I had a quick play of Turrican II, and it ran pretty well. Not quite as smooth as the dedicated emulator, but very impressive for HTML5.

Have you ever played Another World?
Pretty difficult game. As a kid, I could never even get past the first level. A few years ago I managed to finish it emulated, and it had some tricky stuff in it.

Post by: BlobVanDam on January 04, 2013, 10:32:32 AM: Ah, the good old days when games were impossible to finish. To this day I don't know anybody who ever got past the first level of Bart vs the Space Mutants. I'm not even convinced there was a second level. :lol

Turrican II is pretty difficult too. I always used cheats for that one. Great music and general vibe in that game.

Nice. I actually have the Turrican II soundtrack on my soundtrack playlist. The Amiga 500 had great sound for its time, and it was all sampled instruments instead of generic sounding MIDI. They'd often cheat and sample full chords or sample it with reverb to get around the 4 track limitation of the hardware.

Probably for the best.
