How boring my dad's superficiality on any Mario game I play for typical eternal elements of saga, for him the pearls are those he played on #C64 & #A500 (loved by Gen. Xs), many that he mentions are ports: #DrMario, #RainbowIsland, #BubbleBobble. I didn't grow up and be fan on those, I tried but nothing, but there're some that I like and that are also multiplatform: #Turrican, #ChaosEngine, #SoccerKid, #BubbleandSqueak, #SensibleSoccer, #JamesPond, #Zool, #Speedball, #ItCamefromtheDesert

Che noia la superficialità di mio padre su ogni gioco di Mario a cui gioco per i tipici elementi eternali della serie, per lui le perle son quelli a cui giocava su #C64 e #A500 (amate da Gen. X), molti che menziona son porting: #DrMario, #RainbowIsland, #BubbleBobble. Non son cresciuto ed appassionato con quelli, ci ho provato ma niente, ma ci son alcuni che apprezzo e che son pure multipiatta: #Turrican, #ChaosEngine, #SoccerKid, #BubbleandSqueak, #SensibleSoccer, #JamesPond, #Zool, #Speedball

Another reason I love to tinker with original Amiga disk images instead of just using WHDLoad packages:

Here are two program disks from the same game "Soccer Kid". The regular OCS/ECS version still uses a custom trackloader without a readable file system. In contrast, the - later released - AGA version does already have a file system, icons and a harddrive installer.

That's some technical evolution from 1993 to 1994.
