Amiga - a 16bit or 32bit machine?

[warpdesign]

Actually the first ever 32bit console is the FM Towns Marty, released in February 1993.

And the X68000 is way more powerfull than the CD32 in terms of sprite/scrolling handling... 128 hardware 16x16 sprites.

Not really, no. The FM Towns Marty contained a 386SX, the SX variant of the 386 had a 16 bit databus, like the 68000.

Indeed. And the 68EC020 found inside the CD32 only has a 24bit address-bus and can't allocate more than 16Mb RAM... Get it isn't 32bit either So where does it leave us ?
