The A-Z of Amiga Arcade Conversions: Part 16 [13/11/25]

Описание: Played on my Amiga 600, here's another instalment of arcade ports beginning with the letter S, and that's also a good letter to find words to describe this sub-optimal selection. Two pointless Arcadia titles kick us off (I hope 7-Up felt the full value of the Spot licence in this one) plus a whole load of games with the prefix Super, which is largely misleading.

Still, I can recommend Star Wars and Super Hang-On unreservedly as Amiga games in their own right. That's more than I can say for the utter car crash that is the first Street Fighter game, and its sequel, whilst an improvement, probably did a lot for SNES sales at that time. And as for Super C... fair to say Konami's relationship with the Amiga was, at best, lukewarm.

I've rated all these games, with mini-reviews, on a spreadsheet which you can find here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...
