Not sure I understood that.. but what I was saying is that the original 1984 Activision game could not have been released for the Amiga cus the Amiga itself had not been released. The game generally was on datasette/cassette not on floppy.
I never saw Ghostbusters on cassette for any system. Here in the States, is was either on floppy or cartridge.
What I am getting at is the fact that arcade games were always first. Years later, they were translated to consoles or computers. You never saw or would see a game in the arcade released concurrently as a home system, so your argument about being retro... I don't fully follow. Just because Ghostbusters (never an arcade game) was released on a certain system in '84 or whenever does not mean it shouldn't have been ported to more modern systems years later. That's silly. We'd have no classic gaming to play on any system if that was the case.
Pinball Construction Set was slated for release on the Amiga - even saw ads for it. Yet it was never released. That was pure and utter BS. People like me really wanted to experience a superior version of that title on our Amiga's. Think of what they could have done with a nicer version of that particular game. And no, the "pinball construction set" type game we saw several years later on the Amiga, in no way, compares to what the 8-bits had.
