River Raid for Mega STe





Thank you, Carol Shaw!

I fancied a blast with a favourite ZX Spectrum game - RIVER RAID!! Okay, I know it's lame compared to the Atari 2600/5200 games, but I have happy memories. I figured I should use the Mega STe muscle and boot up the Speccy emulator for some colour-clash action (There was never an official Atari ST version).

Obviously, I cannot record directly off my Mega STe, so I duplicated the setup in Hatari to make this video: a stock 16Mhz Mega STe (TOS 2.06) runs the game well. It's almost at the same speed as a real Speccy. Hey, could my recording fool people into thinking it is real? Until they see the GEM desktop at the end!!

If you wanna emulate more computers on your Atari ST, then check out this section of my website.
