After Grix putting the link up to The UnderDogs page, I went and downloaded Stunt Car Racer.
IT was just as I remembered it. Except it looked crap. The Amiga being able to handle better graphics than the PC in those days.
So I went on the hunt for Amiga Abadonware - games so old that it's acceptable to give them away for free. And I found the Amiga version of Stunt Car Racer.
I also found an Amiga version of Secret of Monkey Island (which I'm downloading as I write this, so I hope it works or I'll look a bit stupid).
Anyway, check out:
http://www.pure-emu.com/index.php/roms/amiga for a list of web-sites with ROMs on.
The one I got SCR and SoMI from is this site:

If you need an emulator, or help to get them working, give me a shout on MSN.
Enjoy.

If you go in to the Configuration menu of the emulator, and then click on the GamePort tab, all the info is in there.
i remember when i posted the underdogs web address on here many months ago and was hailed hero of retro games
YH what do you use to control the game? Mouse, keyboard? Joystick, joypad? etc.
monkey island rules!
I remember having Monkey Island for the Amiga. My brother lent it to someone and they never gave it back. I have the PC version though... which is nice.

Do you have an amiga emulator? I wanted one ages ago to play Zak McKraken (my fav point and click) but I couldn't get a decent one that works. Where did you get it from?
