The Amiga CD32 was released in September 1993, and it was the first 32-bit cd-rom console to be released in Europe and Canada. Although the plans for releasing it in the US never happened. The Amiga had similar specs as the Amiga 1200 and had the possibility to add mouse, keyboard and etc. The Console lasted only for approximately 7 months due to component supply issues and therefore it didn't had the sales impact to keep the console alive.

There were some exciting games on it, even though there were some serious frame rate issues and the like. Take X-Com for instance, if you were playing a terror attack you would be better off doing something else while in the "next turn" mode, as it would take several hours to be playing again.
