That looks like an Awesome game on the Amiga!

That was quick! Yes, it is 'Awesome'... although this was taken from the Atari ST version (very similar to the Amiga).

Your go!

Game and platform please!

Hopefully this won't be too tricky to work out:

It was tricky!

But after a bit of research (and with the help of your clue) it appears to be 'Chisholm Trail'.

The whole "Limited digital release" seems like a bit of a con. Buy it now or you wont get chance to It does seem a little silly, but just buy the physical version instead! :D No SMG2 because it's the usual half arsed 'that'll do' when it comes to Nintendo putting stuff out.

I'm pretty sure Tetris 99 was cheaper digitally.

Actually, that’s not true. It cost me £17.99 and came with 12 months Nintendo online membership (which costs £17.99 on it’s own anyway) and the game also comes with a bonus full offline mode. So better value overall!

You might think that games are cheaper on cartridge... the pattern you'll usually see is that cartridge games retail at around 15-20% below the RRP... In contrast eShop sales...

Digital downloads are perfect for indie and retro titles, but for AAA titles I'll always go cartridge. Why? Prices are usually much cheaper (especially if you shop around) You get something collectable and tangible in your hand They have resale value No long download times (obviously except for patc...

It's definitely Laser Squad.
From the palette, I'd guess at the Amstrad CPC version.

Correct! Your go...

^^^ I do enjoy SFV (all the DLC and update strategies from Capcom aside!) but whenever I haven't played it for a while, I end up in the training mode re-teaching myself the mechanics. It's certainly the least intuitive Street Fighter I have ever played. Compare that to my recent re-playing of Alpha...

Here's a download code for a retro NES Samus/Metroid 3DS background theme, for the first taker.

Thanks Pratty! I claimed it this morning. Cheers.

This one should be fairly easy, but can you work out the platform?

Sorry, must have been a problem at my end, both images showing now.

Good choice, it's Amberstar (1992) on the Amiga!

Can you post again please, image not displaying.
