Game data base: News from lemonamiga.com
100 scans from ads of print magazines have been added to the game data base lemonamiga.com.
Many games now have cross references to the data bases CPCZone (Armstrad CPC), KLOV (Arcade-Automaten) and Guardiana (Sege Mega Drive). This makes it possible to compare the Amiga version with the Arcade original or the Sega-/CPC version.
Since our last announcement nearly 200 new games have been added.

AmigaOS 4: CPC-Emulator Arnold
Arnold emulates the CPC-computers from Armstrad or Schneider (Screenshot) respectively. The main goal is a very near emulation of the original system, therefore most of the CPC-software should work properly.
The AmigaOS port of Dr.Hirudo still contains some bugs which should be fixed in future releases:
- uses all the cpu resources
- slower in fullscreen mode than in window
- renders graphics only on 32-bit depth
- when emulating some noises - the emulator crashes - represented when playing "Space Harrier"
- double size mode is slow
- when set frameskip, the emulator speeds up instead of working at 100% speed and skipping frames
