100 games reached and server online!

Will there be a filtering UI as there are now so many games to browse?

Of course, the target is 500 games which are my favorite. With a search by name or developer.

Since people is starting to receive the first cards, I created a basic wiki page with the first steps:

Nice, just FYI, if you power the MX4 board with external adapter you don't need to enter user / pass everytime, because the connection keeps active

Awesome!
It would be nice to have a hardware button to reset and load the game browser without the need to retype the rsx command after a game session.

There are many examples of modified BASIC ROMs that automatically run a command upon booting. Maybe I will provide one for |AMSTEAM

The reset button is in the MX4 mother board already

In my case, I won't be interested in this feature. 

I don't want AMSTEAM card doing a "bootloop" to game browser every time I reset my CPC (... as if I had a GX4000 ...)

I have other cards on my Mother X4. And I want to be able to take advantage of them when the CPC starts (otherwise they would never be available again).
I don't find it restrictive to type |AMSTEAM to launch the browser.

[trocoloco]

Yes, I found out right after recording it

An autostart would be fantastic. My kids would probably love that they can switch it on and have that nice selection screen. Or at an exhibition...
