Thanks for joining. Hope you hang and round and get stuck in lol.
Thanks very much! Wasn't sure of the best place to put it. I definitely love the UK vibe, as a big fan of the Speccy!
Episode 49 of Amigos is the completely original Great Giana Sisters! (http://www.amigospodcast.com/2016/06/episode-49-great-giana-sisters.html)
A great listen, I remember seeing Great Giana Sisters firstly on the Atari ST before I had on the Amiga, even though it appeared on the Amiga firstly, maybe because I didn't join the Amiga legion till 1990, but yet had never seen Super Mario on the NES in which Giana Sisters is a copy of so this was all new and all original to me, as I thought that this was an exclusive game concept to first appear on the ST and Amiga, but after reading about the lawsuit from Nintendo brought it to my attention that it was otherwise, but what a classic and it didn't damage sales against Nintendo considering super Mario was 3 years previous to the release of Giana sisters, So when they had to pull the game of the market, the rarity of the game, especially the c64 version went sky high in value and is extremely rare to come by today.
It's funny, if you were in a "computer bubble" with no real exposure to the NES, The Great Giana Sisters would have seemed like a totally original concept, like you said!
