Crazy Cars, but it was stolen by some jerk on a club day :uzi::quickdraw:
The only original game I own is Frontier First Encounters.

I think it was one or two. I don't remember which though (they were probably no quality stuff to remember).

As off topic as relatives go:
We also had NES, but ever bought 2 games I think (excluding the SMB1 that it shipped with). In the case of NES we had no choice but barrow all the games we ever played minus 3. Same was true for Mega Drive (Genesis), SNES, Gameboy, N64, and Dreamcast. Except in the case of DC I bought only one game: Sega Rally II, that was crap. Only the first track appeared arcade-like and smooth (which was the one I had seen in a video review). already the second one was very laggy. I felt robbed. I went to the store and got Soul Calibur instead on my request. While it still was worth far from even half the cost, it was a good game, unlike the former.

Bards Tale 1.    I loved that game,  I had played it on the 64 and when I got my amiga 500 I had to have it.   Not the best graphics by most "amiga" standards,  but still very fun to play. the bard songs were of course great on the amiga.

Rick Dangerous. Still to my mind one of the most fiendishly adictive platform games ever made.

I have to admit, I never bought any original game back in the good old amiga days. Main reason was that in Malta we had no copyright law, so it was free for all. I used to buy games directly from the cracking group Fairlight.... the games cost like 4 or 5 marks per floppy.

My science teacher was the guy who designed Stardust. Even showed me the paper original of the map screen.

A very cool guy.

1st game was either Sinbad or Defender of the Crown. 90% sure it was Sinbad.

First one was Falcon.  I also remember Archepelagos and Magic Marbles (?) being pretty early.  Oh, and Operation Wolf.  My coworker loved OW on the arcade and was most impressed that I had it at home.  I let him borrow my A500 (& monitor, etc.), along with Falcon and OW.  He was reluctant to give it back, but I think his wife missed him and made him return it!
