Pedro by Imagine is a crop growing game. I had that for the Electron long ago. I don't recommend it.

Did you use the four pokes? You might have taken the invisible object without noticing. I don't think it can be finished without the invisible object or else why would the poke be necessary.

Did you use infinite lives or any snapshot device to complete the game on a real Spectrum? There is so many difficult screens I don't think anyone could complete it.

The Acorn Electron had adverts in 1983. I think the Elite game also did about a year later. That Zelda advert was not long ago. Sega must have had quite a lot. Playstation 1 and 2 has had a lot.

Maybe you should send a code to the printer to select an old emulation mode like Epson FX-85 or IBM ProPrinter II.
I was wondering if the +2As parallel port is bidirectional.

Speaking about Postman Pat, I have been wondering if Mikrogens 1983 game 'Pat the Postman' is the same postie. If not then is Mikrogens Pat the original?

As far as I know, the built in +3/+2A ROM and CP/M Plus for +3 have Epson FX-80 compatible escape control codes.

Maybe DVD recordable discs will be more affordable in a year or so. CD recordable discs started at about ?7 each and are now only 80p for a branded disc. As long as you have cassettes they can get scanned/tzxed/documented someday.
