Thought id say hi as my 1st post. Owned most of the old consoles and computers Spectrum +3, C64, snes, megadrive, mega cd, master system, ps1, ps2, xbox etc, and recently built my own bartop arcade machine with over a thousand retro arcade games from the late 70's to the late 90's. Currently enjoying some old mega cd games

Never played either but remember the advertisements for Double Switch. It reminded me of Night Trap. Looked like a cool game.
Enjoy!

Welcome to the forum Azzer2000, yeah the MegaCD was a great edition and extended life of the Mega-Drive, even though I never owned one, thanks to emulation that for me is no longer a problem and check out these classic games and what I love about it was it wasn't simply FMV video clips added as an intro, like most of the games on the CD32, a1200 games with a simple FMV at the start and end, does not make an exclusive CD-rom title.
but if I can recommend "Policenauts" or "Snatcher" to be exactly what I'm talking about, you probably already know, but great that you've joined us here and your 20 posts away from our download section, which has some brilliant and exclusive stuff for regular members especially created by some of us here as a thank you for your continued loyalty to RVG.
Enjoy your stay and don't be afraid to ask about anything, we have a great collection of experts (well so called experts lol) to help if you need it

Quote from: "Azzer2000"Ha yes I never had a jaguar. I will get round to playing some emulated games on it though to see whaI missed out on. One of the few consoles i never had.It is a great machine with some fantastic games (ok, not many) that were truly amazing for their time. I'm not sure if the love for this console can be experienced through emulation since most are poor (I'm sure someone will correct me if I am wrong). That said, it is an expensive system to collect.
There are a number of very well informed people on this site regarding all systems but Laird is a good chap who knows a little about Atari and the Jaguar specifically :)

Ah thanks! And yes I will definitely have at least a look on YouTube at the jaguar games if I can't get them to work properly on an emulator.

Virtual Jaguar probably has the best compatibility but it's still not great. For example Doom doesn't work on VJ, but it does work on Project Tempest.
