I am a CD32 collector in the USA and am on my second go around with the CD32.
Way back in 1995 or so I purchased an NSTC unit from a vendor named "Bigg Wolf" in New York. We chatted on the phone several times and it was generally cool having such a rare item in a country that was not supposed to have them. The reality was that the games either didn't play correctly when in NTSC or I would have to grab the mouse from my 3000, boot in PAL and play on my 1084 which was not an option at the time so I sold it.
Fast forward to this year and I own a PAL CD32, a PAL compatible TV set and about 30 CD32 games, many of which are unopened.
The games are, sadly, mostly crap... But that only makes me want them more sometimes. There are a few good ones, Frontier, Pinball Fantasies, Cannon Fodder.
At Amiwest this year I may be doing a "public lab" with an NTSC and PAL CD32 units to see which games will play on what systems and in which modes. I still run into people that claim they have played NTSC CD32's on NTSC TV sets and everything played fine and I just don't think it is possible.
Bottom line, unless you have some sort of twisted soft spot for the CD32 like I do, you would be better served with an A1200 or WinUAE.
