I wasn't that nasty to him because I just sent him an original tap image before anyone else gets a lookin ;-) |

| | Plus/4 World is Proud to Present... | | Posted by MIK on 2002-04-24 |
 Back in the golden days Udo Gertz made such an impact on the C16/Plus4 community that even now, 16 or so years on he is still the most talked about programmer of all time. So much so that once the TAP format was up and running the first game I tried TAPing was Winter Events. This was a corker of a game to have in tap format with it's multi loading and emulation over load, but it didn't work. In fact it became the perfect image to fine tune emulation itself! With MTAP and YAPE having under gone large updates since that time the day was upon us before we even knew Winter Events.tap would load! If it wasn't for Ati's testing yet again my 2mins sample tap of Winter Events it would still be tucked away in the duff folder! Ati mailed me at once with the awesome news that the sample was now loading in YAPE and could we please have the full version :-) To cut a long story short it took 2 days to get a fully 100% working version and at the same time one of my Winter Events tapes got chewed up :-( But the pay off has come and emulations finest hour is here! Our dream has at last become reality and it's time to share that magic moment of loading the original tape version of Winter Events with-out the real hardware. Udo lives on! Enjoy.

| | Jörg Dierks Paperboy - The Original Cover! | | Posted by MIK on 2002-04-14 |
Adding to yesterdays coin-op conversions Paperboy now comes with it's original double cassette sized cover. The C16/Plus4 version of Paperboy says it all, get the right man on the job and what may of seen as the impossible can happen!
1986 was a fantastic games release year with the best coming from Germany as did Jörg Dierks. Kingsoft and Anco must have been in tears not having the licence to release this masterpiece. |

| | 2 Original Arcade Covers Added! | | Posted by MIK on 2002-04-13 |
Ghost'n'Goblins and Ikari Warriors both get the Original Cover treatment. Not only are these covers rare but so were arcade conversions to grace the C16/Plus4. That makes these two something special I'd say :-)
One thing I will point out is, the size difference of the original and re-release covers is correct. You may remember the originals came in large black plastic cases. Bigger was better in the old days and this trend still stayed for years untill the DVD format hit the streets... |

| | The Meanies Got Mapped! | | Posted by Csabo on 2002-04-05 |
Csabo has created yet another cool map for a cool game: Video Meanies by Tony Kelly. This enjoyable classic should bring back old memories for most of us...
The game has 24 rooms, with a VCR in each room. Your task in the game is to turn off all the "videos". Once the task is completed, the game displays a "Well Done" screen, which has a little surprise on it... To see what it is, complete the game, or just take a look at this new map. |
