I tried recently Defender of the Crown CDTV (NTSC) on my PAL CDTV. It works.

Well... it didn't mention anything about NTSC or PAL on the cover, even if I bought it from US. I think that all games are one region only.

It worked normally, like a PAL game. I think that CDTV can play both PAL and NTSC games. I don't know the opposite (NTSC CDTV with PAL games though).

I'm using my CDTV with an LCD TV. But I never heard about PAL or NTSC Amiga games however.

At least I suppose there are PAL CDTV and NTSC CDTV


I don't think so. So why the games cover don't mention anywhere if it's PAL or NTSC?

The question is : why does your NTSC game work well on your PAL CDTV ?


I dunno really. I'm waiting Lemmings for CDTV from US. I will check it out when I got it and I will tell you also if this game works.

I have another question. Is these games NTSC or PAL, or maybe they are region free?

Hm. I will try that to see if it's slow than PAL version (I have it on my A1200 also). But I played a little yesterday and it seemed normal to me.
