Bubble & Squeak and Marvin's Marvellous Adventures CD32.

These are the 2 I'm looking for the most.

There are 2 or 3 copies of Marvin's on the eDonkey net, but none of them are complete.

Bubble's case is worse, all I can find are ripped versions with no CD audio tracks.

I've been looking for both in bit torrent too, but Bubble & Squeak is nowhere to be seen, and Marvin's is only available in a ratio site (with my current connection, it will be ages before I reach the minimum ratio required ).

I don't like to post requests in forums (I love to find things myself), but I have already spent too many hours searching for these two, it's getting very frustrating...

Thanks in advance!

Marvin is a fun game, atleast until you get to the part where you are in that big flying machine. It just becomes a totally different game, frustrating

Wow, that was fast!

Thanks very much for the helping, TheBoss.

I can't believe I'm finally done with the searching .

Thanks also for your welcome, I've been an Amiga lover since late 1989 (I still have an A500 with a GVP A530 accel/HD around here, fully working for the nostalgia attacks) and just found EAB (shame we don't have similar webs here, in Spain).

I hope to be around for some time, too .

@Chain:

Yes, I know ebay has some of them, and I will eventually buy the games, but I'm looking for a pack or something similar to reduce the shipping costs.

@tomcat666:

I never really got to play these games, I could'nt get them when I had the CD32; that's why I want them so badly now :P.

Funny you say that, I just completed the download of this from eMule the other day.

You just need to wait until a source that has it completed comes online

Unfortunately, I can't have the computer on for more than a few hours each day, so finding these complete sources and getting data from them can be an impossible mission for me .

@TheBoss:

I just got Bubble & Squeak from your site, but I can't get Marvin's; there's a folder with the name of the game, but when I try to get in, it gives me a "permission denied" error.

Yeah eMule sucks big time when you are limited by that factor

I'm lucky I guess, I have 2 x laptops and an 8MB ADSL connection...

I leave one laptop on and connected to eMule 24 hours a day / 7 days a week. LOL
