===================================================================================
Exclusion:
1. We can't play following Atari ST titles on CD32+FDD because emulator doesn't support joystick, so they're not be listed.
     The game itself can be loaded correctly on CD32+FDD, though.
     "Hunchy 1066"(1993) and "Hunchy 2010"(1993) which was developed by Powerfist Productions.
2. C64 titles can't be listed. C64's ROM file is not allowed to distribute freely,
     so if one CD32 user doesn't have C64, he/she must buy it in advance.
     It seems that it is ridiculous. (You know, CD32 is a console, however, C64 is not. Why do we have to buy C64?
     "Robin to the Rescue"(1983) and "Alley Cat"(1984) which was developed by John P. Shay
3. We never list Windows / modern consoles/smart phones titles even if they're well-done freeware.
     It is because we are interested in only games which we can play on our retro consoles.
     If you're OK even if you cannot play the game on your retro consoles, don't miss out.
     "Hunchy"(2004), "Hunchback 2005"(2005), "Punchy the Adventures"(2006), "Hunchback"(2007), "The Hunch"(2015)
