It is not bad. I dare You to watch Nintendo DS every game video. As much as I like that system it got even more crap simple/ugly games than any other system. As for amiga games usually those videos cover 80% of every games, usually missing some public domain games, new gamed from above 2000 and some rare not English games.

Back then I didn't care a jot about all that, I was too happy being able to play multum of quality Amiga games, and yes, I mean pre-1990 ones too. The fact remains that between ~1987-1991 (can stretch it to 1993, if you allow for those on a strict budget) Amiga was the best all-round platform for gaming. It had countless awesome computer-style games, as well as numerous quality console-style ones. And it's disappointing that in 2021 only the latter seem to be used as a yardstick. |

No, I didn't want to share my opinion about those games, because it's only my opinion and is therefore off topic here. Now that you mention it, my opinion is that the platformer genre is overrepresented on the amiga just because the amiga is the best machine for it: it has hardware 2D scrolling, copper effects, bobs... so a ton of completely ininteresting yet cute platformers were created (I love Gods, Magic Pockets, Superfrog and Chuck Rock I & II, Toki, BC Kid, Titus The Fox, Fire & Ice, Lionheart, Beast series, Blues Brothers to name a few, but there are a lot of platformers that aren't original at all, slow, with monsters going left & right, no A.I so dumb monsters, no weapons, no upgrades and sometimes even no secret rooms, in a word BORING....) |

Hey.. don't cheat.. you need to watch whole 7 and a half hour video.
-------------- On topic: When someone said to science fiction writer Sturgeon, that 90% of Sci/Fi is crap, he replied: "Ninety percent of [science fiction] is crud, but then, ninety percent of everything is crud". That later became Sturgeon's law |
