I love Atari ST games, me.

This one is a really interesting one! A completely unique control scheme that makes you wonder why it isn't used in more games.

Let's take a look at how one of my favourite #AtariST games, Super Sprint, fairs on other systems, shall we?

Further adventures into the library of Capcom games on the ST has uncovered a vertical shoot 'em up that goes by the name of Last Duel. Let’s go rescue Princess Sheeta from Scott Bakula or something.

IK+ on the #AtariST is my absolute favourite game of all time. Let’s take a look at what it was like on other systems!

Here are a bunch of great games that I believe deserve a little more limelight. What are your favourite ‘hidden gems’ for the Atari ST?

@Major_Alchemist A name to fill anyone with trepidation! :D

Actually, it's easy to just remember the bad games, but US Gold published many great games for the ST too: California Games, Cruise for a Corpse, Gauntlet 2, The Lucasfilm adventure games... and that's just a cursory look at my shelves.

Onward through the Capcom Atari ST library we travail. Here's a game based on a manga that's got planes and stuff in it.

Encounter is clearly not a game for everybody, but the Steam algorithm links the visibility of a game to the number of whish lists it has received, so if you feel like wish-listing the game on your Steam account that would be very appreciated! 🙏

Let's dive a little deeper into the pool of Capcom games on the #AtariST. This time it's Bionic Commando's turn. A great game on the NES, but the arcade version and indeed the ST version are very different.

Another Capcom game this week, this time it's LED Storm, converted to the #AtariST by Software Creations. Featuring a banger of a theme tune from Tim Follin.

Continuing our adventures into new (to me) arcade conversions we take a look at US Gold's port of Capcom's Black Tiger.

A nice read here from the Retrobros about the Atari ST's 40th anniversary. Highly recommended reading: https://t.co/hBCdWLfzDN

@TheJoyofSticks @maraka77i The final one was always my favorite. If you play a flawless game of XENON II, you can upgrade to something similar at one point that is close abd can be used to.actually play.

[Marc Johnson @TheJoyofSticks]

@Atari_VB_Pod @maraka77i A flawless game?! I’m happy if I make it to stage 2 🤣

Another enhanced game for the Atari STe has been added to the list. No idea WHY this took me so long!! https://t.co/esL3sR03IH

@AtariCrypt No, of course not. I would never fall for such a ruse... 👀
