Amiga A600 vs Atari 1040 STE! We’re gettin' ready fer a showdown!

Hi everyone and welcome back to the Shack! In this episode we're gettin' ready fer a showdown between two greats of the 16bit computer era! This episode has been sponsored by our good friends at PCBWay.com - Check out their website for all your PCB fabrication needs. http://pcbway.com - PCBs for as little as $5!

To suggest the best games to showcase these machines, please leave a comment with the tag #showdown - please leave your suggestions before 22:00 on the 9th July (not June as I stupidly say in the video!) We'll have a look at what the most common suggestions are (or ones that look really interesting or unusual) and we'll get the showdown together! Only floppy games please - no hard disk installable versions.
