Oh my god. I seriously remember the SAM Coupe! Crash magazine were raving about it in the past. Shame it never caught on..
Never realised that it actually made it into production !
Take a look via google :)
I remember dreaming about having one when I had my 128K, but then I discovered the Amiga a while after and my Spectrum days faded into a distant memory.
Mind you the sound of a tape loading ....neeerrrr..ne....neeerrrrr...nenenenenenen. Has become so ingrained in my head that at one point I thought I preferred the sound of Jet Set Willy to the music tapes in my car.
Okay, if you get jet set willy to load etc. You remember it was using a basic loading screen?
Now, remember other games like Outrun which had that countdown loading screen? That was really scary in my days since you have to practically somewhat sit there and pray for it to load. I hated it when loading/games kicks in the 'reset' position. Oh the _pain_ of that.
There were so many different loading screens. Gotta find them all........
Right, where did my slippers and pipe go ?
Over here, with a cup of tea and the usual grandparent's biscuits ;)
