The latter is hardly surprising, given that I can't find any mention of a new game release for the Amiga more recent than 2000.

No doubt because Commodore went out of business in 1994, and the last actual Amiga (as opposed to AmigaOne, which is a PowerPC) was made c. 1996. Not much potential in porting new games to 10-years-in-the-dustbin-of-history platforms.

I loved my C64. My dad gave it to me when his employer gave him a lunch box 286. I was the only kid I knew with a computer at college back in those days. I played the heck out of Wizard's Crown, F15 Strike Eagle, and Gunship.

Wizards Crown:Eternal Dagger was my favorite game on the C64, I stayed up for 3 days straight playing it one time.

Ah, the C64 - actually mine was a C128, but for games that made it a sort of big footprint C64. Bought mine in 1985 to play F-15 Strike Eagle. Also loved RFTS, Pirates!, Gunship & Empire. Had to step up to a 286 PC to play Battlehawks:1942, so I gave the C128 to my little sister.
