I've always wondered why size matters

After all its an Amiga Collection, not Amiga ADF/HDF only Collection?

I guess you're right...

If I was to add in CD32 and CDTV titles, they would need to be exclusives, extremely good games or have additional stuff over the floppy based version besides audio tracks.

For example; I do love Defender Of The Crown II

...so from a very quick scan I would probably add these:

CD32:
CDTV:

Let me think about it

Maybe there's no harm with adding a few worthwhile CD based games, in a way this collection is comparable to Mame which included chds.

...but I've added loads of "CD based games" already i.e. AmigaCD ones

hey Damien
if you are going to add CDTV games, take note that the Prehistorik CDTV has excellent music and sound effects which aren't found in any other version of the game

Personally I think it would be easier to manually add cd32 games since if someone is interested I believe that person already have required cd images and all that is left is just grab screen shots and save configuration for each game.

I took a look but... doesn't seem anything special.

As above, doesn't seem like anything special over the floppy disk version besides audio tracks and a little speech in the shop

Yup, that was my original thinking

...and the problem is once I starting adding some CD32 / CDTV games; people will then say "but what about xyz?".

Anyway, I'm still trying to decide what I should do...

Well done guys!!!
...but you may like this type of game more than me so

You can always try the old / free version on Aminet before you decide to purchase

I have to say though, the latest CD32 version has been much improved over the above .ADF.

Xenon 2 non CDTV music drops out when you shoot.

CDTV version music doesn't drop out.

I don't think Smurf Rescue is purchasable. That one was shot down for copyright, wasn't it?
