Mostly CPC, Plus and BBC Master.

Other 8-bit computers and consoles I keep an interest through vids on youtube.

@salvogendut -
6128, A1230 and PSX filled mine 90s. I can read about others but I don't want to waste my time, space and money on them.

The average time to start a game on CPC + FDD is 14 seconds. And on Amiga with FDD it's over 2 minutes, which is closer to C64 with a tape recorder than to CPC with FDD. The truth is that 16/32bit without HDD is like 8bit without FDD, a snail and no comfort.

@norecess464 - 
I wonder what games you consider better on CPC than on Amiga?
I can only think of one: Prince of Persia.

Voici les derniers jeux ajoutés sur https://bzhgames.xyz/amstrad.php :

Bonjour, j'ai essayé d'exécuter l'émulateur tiny8bit mais cela ne fonctionne pas
J'ai essayé :
MAC OS. Firefox + Chrome
Windows 11, Firefox + Chrome + Edge
Voici le message d'erreur que je vois dans la console lorsque je clique sur le bouton de lecture :

VM33:1
Uncaught ReferenceError: ouvre_popup is not defined
    at HTMLAnchorElement.onclick ( VM33:1:12 )
    at HTMLImageElement.onclick ( cpc3mlsson.php?jeu=A...ro%20Attack:176:712 )

	sur clic	@	VM33:1
	sur clic	@	cpc3mlsson.php?jeu=Astro%20Attack:176

Thank you for the information.
I just tested it, and indeed, I can reproduce the error when clicking the link from the forum, but not directly from BZHGames.
I wasn't aware of this issue.
Thanks again for bringing it to my attention — I'll do my best to fix it as soon as possible.

Anything 4, 8 or 16 bit and also retro / vintage test equipment. This week I'm adding a HDMI output to a Philips Videopac G7000. Maybe the first of its kind?

I had no idea Amiga had slower loading times

It's not that the Amiga is slower at loading data from a floppy disk -- it just has more data to load.

For example: sampled audio versus chip music, high-resolution graphics versus limited color palettes, and so on.

When launching a game on the Amiga, I always have the feeling to wait and wait and wait.

Of course, this could be avoided by using a faster Amiga etc. but I like keeping the vanilla 68000 CPU inside the computer!

I have an Amstrad CPC6128 (colour monitor), a Nintendo DS Lite and a smallish collection of Psion PDAs. That's enough for me. I emulate other machines on the DS Lite and play text adventures on the Psions. They are also useful note taking and writing tools.
