Hi. What about a port of the fantastic oldshool-stylished shooter "Cho Ren Sha 68k"?! This is a nice vertical smup for dos, pc and x68000. A port of this one would be very nice. An alternative to this will be a "sharp x68000" emulator. Whatever ;-))
I miss ports of oldschool-shmups (vertical and horizontal) for the lovely DC in any way. For some links to nice shmups for the dc (only freeware one) I will thank you ;-)))
Thatīs all folks (for the first)

I meant which model. the different models had different amounts of ram and different sized hard drives.

well, i think that was a X68030 with 6 MB RAM, no HD and 25 MhZ (CZ-500C), but Iīm not shure?! Whatever, it was a nice equivalent to the commodore amiga. the good thing for the machine : the arcade ports like Ghoulsīn Goblins or Strider, X68000-only Nemesis versions and so on. Nice machine. A friendsīfather owned this machine many years before.We played a lot of crazy stuff. But now only the emus remains, haha. the machines are to expensive and the software not easy to find.
