 |  Re: 1942 does not exist for the C16.
Someone bumped this thread so I'm going to reply too. I'm pretty sure 1942 did exist for the C16. Richard Ikin (Commando, Airwolf) I think (and might be wrong) produced two working versions, both missing.
But I do remember back around 1985 there was a home shopping catalogue which had a range of C16 titles from Ocean.
Hunchback II
Kong Strikes Back
Daley Thompson's Decathlon
Roland Rat's Race (maybe)
They had a mockup of the front covers with the Commodore 16 label at the bottom. It looked real. The release date was TBA. Clearly they never materialised. I did ask on the Ocean forum some years ago but they have no recollection. Obviously DTD quickly turned into Star Events. I also remember Hunchback II & KSB advertised in Commodore User once. I just wish I could remember the catalogue and find the page. I've looked everywhere.
