Good point. I'd like to know that, too. And how many of those are commercial and how many PD games...

Including PD games? Wow, that's a major task to count them. EAGER had really a lot of games, but still games with different names listed as seperate games. Well if you want to start counting...

At least commercial games.

No, I don't have time right now to count them, I have some Mario collision detection problems to hunt .

More seriously, I have never used the TOSEC database in a rom/disk image manager. And it has been while since I used one of those.
However I think I remember romcenter (at least for SNES) used a system of entries a bit similar to the parent/clone system you can see in MAME or other arcade emus.
If that is the case with Amiga Tosec, things would be easier.

As far as I know this info isn't contained in Amiga TOSEC. Maybe PandMonium knows something about it though.
HOL lists 5488 games as commercial, but there are some with different names listed, so I would say the number of commercial games is between 5000 and 5300 (very rough figure ). Maybe Cody has a better number for us

You've had almost 4 years

The idea of 50 most favourite games = retarded. Count all the votes Only 12 people voted and I spent 3 hours counting. But the guys who wasted their time making their lists deserve the results I think.

We can continue, sure, choose up to three games from those which finished in TOP 50 and two games with most nominations will face each other in the final. Or make another "Best Amiga game ever" thread The more best games we have on Amiga the better
