I just noticed the Dragon Power Software games, and found the loading screen for Robo(Cop) on the Dragon Graphic Studio Plus clipart disk.

Sooo, is it really true that there were a version of RoboCop for the Dragon? I'd love to see that!

According to this wiki the original was made for the CoCo http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ro ... ideo_games

Not sure if it has been ported or will run on the Dragaon

I think the RoboCop for the CoCo is actually for the CoCo3 only, CoCos 1 and 2 (and the Dragon) don't support those video modes.

This is the loading screen as found in the Dragon Graphic Studio Plus ClipArt disk:

Hmm there is mention of it here http://archive.worldofdragon.org/index. ... r_Software

But so far I cannot find anything else about it.

Edit: Another interesting thing to note is the copyright date of 1991. Could explain the lack of information available.

Definitely for the CoCo 3 only. It was released on cartridge only.

It's rubbish by the way. Don't bother. :-)

Hi all,

I write this program for the Dragon Computer in 1990th but I never finished :cry:
I stop the development because in this time I was alone and it was to much to finish the code and graphics.
On my Website you will found more pictures.
