Do you own a CD32 system?  If so, how many commercial titles do you have for it?

Sadly I sold mine back in the day :(

I only had maybe 5 games not counting PD CD's though.

I sure miss it though.

Lucky!  I always wanted the FMV and SX1 for mine.

The CD32 was one of my all time favorite Amiga models if you could find the expansions.

Had to vote "nope", the CD32 is the only Amiga model I've never owned. For some reason it never caught my imagination and always seemed to be e very limited machine without spending a small fortune to basically just turn it into an A1200... :(

Even when they were in the bargain bins at Tandy for £39.99 I was never tempted to buy one, always thought of it as Commodores big mistake and was a desperate attempt by them to try and get into the console market back in the day and we all know how that turned out... :(

Hi,

I own a CD-32 with an SX-1, hard drive, and memory. really like the system. To bad Commodore brought this out to late, had lots of sales, and if it wasn't in the final days of Commodore, this machine could of possibly brought them out.

I also have three working CD-32 mother boards that hopefully one day I will get to experiment with and see what I can do with them.

I thought it was one of the better machines that Commodore ever produced, and if they weren't so cheap, they could of made this a better machine than the A4000.

I have no idea what your talking about, so here is a doggy with a small pancake on his head.

MorphOS is a MAC done a little better

I actually own 2 CD32 systems one with an SX1 expansion and FMV card and one with a CD32 and an SX32 MK2 board...  both have been hacked to go into PAL mode on bootup. (I am here in Texas.)


I love my CD32 systems very much, but I seem to be using my A600 with Individual Computers expansion for RAM, and VGA and Accellerator more these days.

I love my Amiga...   sigh...

Sadly, I do not own a CD-32.  Always wanted one.

Oddly enough, I own several original CDTV and CD-32 cd's probably something like 20-25

They work well with WinUAE.

Yes, almost mint. Unfortunately, I don't own any games.

One in near mint (including failed-from-the-factory CD-ROM,) one I use, and one in not-so-good shape.  Need to buy some of those A-Power PSUs at some point, if they're still available when I have the scratch

No.

Never saw the point.

ONLY good thing was the FMV module for videocd. But it cost a bomb.

Nope. closest I came was seeing a controller  at a car boot sale. Got very excited but nothing else to be seen!

I used to have one and an sx-1, but the sx-1 I lost in an unexpected move. I had the cd32 for a while after that, but stupidly beat it to death with its own power supply in an over tired fit of frustration.
All my belongings that didnt fit into a big camping bag were lost when I unexpectedly and suddenly had to move, including all my Amiga magazines. The person who I was sharing a place with at the time was always a hoarder to the nth degree, so I sometimes have fanatsies of running into him and finding out he still has my stuff :)
Near as I can tell this is where I write something under the guise of being innocuous, but really its a pot shot at another persons/peoples choice of Amiga based systems. Unfortunately only I cant see how transparent and petty it makes me look.
