The Amstrad CPC was a series of 8-bit computers released in Europe to compete with the Commodore 64 and ZX Spectrum. Like the Amiga, it was a big gaming platform.
GX4000
The GX4000 is a home video game console developed and marketed by Amstrad. It was released exclusively in Europe in September 1990, and was the company's only attempt at entering the console market. As part of the third generation of consoles, it was the first British-manufactured programmable games console.

- See the CPCWiki Encyclopedia page for a mega-large list of all known Amstrad CPC emulators for a wide variety of platforms, consoles, other devices and FPGA hardware!
- Old website for CPCE emulator (Page shows a small list of old CPC emulators and other lists for many resources. It shows that there was an old multi-system emulator called 'MulTiMachine' by Paul A. Hodgson, abandoned in 1998, but it is titled as 'MTMW' on CPCWiki's page. See old interview in French.)
