The Amstrad CPC was the Nemesis of The Commodore 64. The System it’s Self was really put together well. It had a Tape Deck and a Floppy Disk built into it! This gave it more options to what could be played on it. It had a nice color rang just like the NES does. A lot of the games were very good on the graphics and Did get some support from some of the big guys like Capcom. This System did well in France and other countries in Europe. For some reason, they choose Alligators to be their Icon. I do Love those Gators. They are pretty funny on the TV Spots. :P
In all, this System died do to the Amiga and Atari ST. And now the fans have made a Java version of the System for those who haven’t got the chance to play a fun Gaming Computer. This is one fun little guy to check out. And watch the Gators on YouTube. They are silly. :P
