Players Hollywood Poker

Post by Dal1980 »

Hi I don't know if I've stumbled upon a missing title within Spectrum Computing.

Individual Software apparently released Pokestripper in 1986 (according to WOS https://worldofspectrum.org/archive/sof ... l-software)

This was also re-released from Players in 1988 under "Hollywood Poker" (I have the tape + inlay)

Neither Individual Software (https://spectrumcomputing.co.uk/list?la ... 2&strict=1) or Players (https://spectrumcomputing.co.uk/list?la ... 4&strict=1) feature this title.

update: 3D Snooker is also missing found it mixed in with 'S'

Is there sometime I missed while searching?

Kind regards
James

Pokestripper/Hollywood Poker is here. It won't show up in a search as it is deemed to be "adult content".

3D Snooker is here.

Although they don't acknowledge it, World of Spectrum uses an old version of the same database as Spectrum Computing (the one used here is the latest, most accurate version), so you won't find anything there that isn't here.

Hi @Dal1980,

Games marked in the database as X rated are not visible via search. Although if you know the ID they are still there.

I do plan to put commercially released (by mainstream companies) games of this nature back in the search. But It's not going to happen immediately.

Peter

Edit. @StooB got there before me!
