Those take me back. I sunk hours into They $tole A Million - jaunty music to, to listen too while the cassette loaded it up.

If all these old video games mentioned here were ported over to iOS/Android, blimey there'd be money to be made.

Thanks for the information! I recently got an SD-box--that's a device that allows connecting a micro SD card to a Commodore 64 and use it as if it was a 1541 disk drive, so I'm currently playing all the great 8-bit classics in their C64 versions. I hope they will make something similar for Spectrum.
SD2IEC? Looks like an original 1541? They are ace. I have similar device for the Spectrum that I bought from a guy closer to you than me.

Came very quickly and works a treat. It was even pre-loaded with lots of 'goodies'. He also sells a newer model with built in joystick port. I also have a floppy emulator for my Amiga as well that reads disk images off of a USB stick.

It looks like a regular C64 cartridge, with a serial cable added...

Brilliant! Certainly another "shut up and take my money" thing to add to my collection. :)
