What does CPC stand for? ( Yay! First post)

What does CPC stand for?

IIRC it stands for Compact Personal Computer ... because the monitor was included, which was an unusual feature of a home microcomputer in the early & mid 80s.

I may, however, be misremembering lol

From WikiPedia:

The Amstrad CPC was a series of 8-bit home computers produced by Amstrad during the 1980s and early 1990s. CPC stood for 'Colour Personal Computer', although it was possible to purchase a CPC with a green screen (GT65/66) as well as with the standard colour screen (CTM640).

Yeah that was good too, nice platformer. I must have forgotten many games.

Bruce Lee

Yay for retro computers!

It varied by region. Where I'm from, Commodore 64 and Apple II had been largest. A few others were known too. Like Atari or Radio Shack. Coleco wasn't popular around here though.

Amstrad ones, MSX, and ZX Spectrum were unheard of locally.

 

[DjoeN]

nice feature the Wi-Fi connection to download the needed games

Ahhh, the "Roland" games... back before the term "Shovelware" was invented, but after the underlying concept was.

Roland in the Caves... Paco Suarez and Juanjo Redondo, if I ever meet you I'm going to have to punch you in the nuts for mangling the music sooooo badly.

No, what *I* want to play is Sweevo's World.

Man, we thought we were such hot shit back then, with our dual cassette decks and C90 compilations of pirate games.

 

[avant1277]

for me it's all about Exolon

 

[SchuchWun]

Jack the Nipper. OMG if thats not the most racist game title ever I don't know what is... I hope they have a Commodor 64 Emulator that would rock even more then this.
