Codetapper: Good article but this is very sad news.

What about this... Since the Amiga community is so tightly knit, wouldn't it be a good idea to get everyone to chip into making remakes, new conversions of bad ports in the past (thinking of the new AGA version of Final Fight for instance) and completely new games for the Amiga. Kinda like a kickstarter.

Then the process of making games will be taken out of the hands of these greedy publishers who really don't give a rats as* about the Amiga and put into the hands of people with a passion for the project.

These HD remakes are just about making a quick buck out of nostalgia. Not to mention they all looks like sodding flash games anyway!

I'd gladly contribute.
