Clarence,
The guy that runs Better Concepts (1-800-25AMIGA) told me he was putting
together a list of runnable CDTV/CD32s a while back. You might give him a
call.
Labyrinth of Time CD32 will run on most all Amigas according to the
article in June '94 AW. Most reviews say the game is nothing more than a
pretty slide show however. I tried to get the Groliers encyclopedia CDTV
to run on my 1200 with no luck. Tried degrader, turning off caches and
running in ECS mode. Never made it through the startup sequence. One of
the biggest problems seems to be the fact that both the CD32 and CDTV want
a joystick type controller in port 1 instead of a mouse.
I have got the Pinball Fantasies *demo* to run off of the CD32 magazine
cover disc with no problem. I would assume the real thing would run as
well.
Best,
—Mike—
