A What-If Game Library for the Amiga CD32
Ares Computer is developing games for the original Amiga CD32 and measuring them against the console’s 1993 hardware and standards.
- For
- Amiga CD32 players and retro-game developers
- Worth noticing
- The sales model labels its ranges unprovable and accounts for overlapping buyers rather than counting each game's console sales separately.
Field notes
The page separates the CD32’s actual history from an invented release schedule, and explicitly labels the right-hand timeline as counterfactual. Its performance discussion distinguishes repository measurements from estimates: for example, it says the “today” column is measured, while some projects’ Chip-bus shares are estimated. The Fast-RAM model also keeps graphics work tied to the Chip-bus separate from code and data that might benefit from faster memory.
