Cool, thanks. I have a mini Bluetooth keyboard which I didn't have before so I'm gonna give it another go. And if it works well maybe look at some retro controllers.
Hah, yeah - my brother and I had an atari2600 with the mono button joystick while others had NESs with their 4 button witchcraft. We were very jealous.
Flashback. Good call. I always think of that as an Amiga game though. Trying to think of some I used to like (probably mostly Amiga games). Putty, Pang, Superfrog, Supercars, Wizball.
Obviously Sonic 2.
Donkey Kong Country, F-Zero (won't be good on the 360 pad - last time I tried, whenever I went over a jump I ended up off the side).
Gotta be Amiga for the music. But lots of people prefer the Megadrive for the controls. Definitely not the FMV intro of some versions (Sega CD and PC I believe).
I haven't tried much on it yet. Putty and Rainbow Islands worked fine. I tried Pang and The Chaos Engine but they both had a guru error. Think I need to play with the ROM/memory/CPU settings. A mouse and keyboard (my mini Bluetooth keyboard has a built in track pad) is very useful for it.
