I was on a friends' PC and was running MAME, onit i played that great classic arcade game "The New Zealand Story". Still a brilliant game as ever, but cos i haven't played the game in a while i didn't realise how different it was to the home version on computers and games consoles. Ranging from levels, music, graphics and other features.

I have NZ Story on my Amiga, which was an excellent version IMHO, but as my Amiga is out of action for a little while i have to use my GP32. On my GP32 i have the PC Engine version and the C64 version of the NZ Story. Both brilliant versions.

The versions i have played are:

ZX Spectrum
C64
Amiga
PCE

Its been on tons more systems, what is the best and worst version?
A1200D / AGA / B1260 / 64MB RAM / KS 3.1 / AOS 3.9 / 4GB HD

If there'd be a PC version it'd be doubtlessly the worst version. CGA (PURPLE! PURPLE!) and system beeper :nervous: still got a trauma about that (especially after I played around with an A500)

I have a euro Sega Master System cart of the game and it is a very nice version. I didn't give it too much playing time yet though. Genesis/Mega Drive version seems to be pretty rare.
