Well for the recorder , there was after touch N controllerable goaly in
there last I looked ;)
Time for a phone call just to see what did happen to it pmsl
And compiler for Gba is a C one as well, and code was portable (ish), so
would have been easier, but again I didn't code the gba version either ,
so I refush to take any blame lmao

Ppps. I know i can't spell and all my grammer is wrong , so there's no

Ahh. I thought I might not make myself clear, oh well.
I didn't mean the play of the game, ie the computer's play, I meant
rather the gameplay as in the intuitiveness of the controls, the
learning curve etc.
Just silly things like not having the same after-touch mechanism on the
game pads (contrary to the words in the printed manual, incidentally) so
you need to use analog sticks which makes sending the ball in a straight
line nigh-on impossible.
And the goalie being computer controlled was a mistake. I understood why
the decision was taken: novices -always- send the goalie the wrong way
when control changes from a defender; but it just meant that I had less
control over the outcome of the game than I had before.
> Same core was taken across to Gba if my info is correct
That surprised me: given that it's an ARM chip, why not just use the
code from the Acorn conversion?

heh. Well I'm with you there.
