I was googling Oricutron, and I came upon a thread on a spanish forum (retrowiki.es) where they were dicussing The Hobbit, and it was mentioned that it doesn't work in Oricutron (TAPE ERROR).
I couldn't register on the forum (and I don't speak spanish, but google translate helped), but if someone here is on the retrowiki.es forum, could you mention that The Hobbit works fine on Oricutron, but its loader doesn't like turbo tape. Just turn off turbotape before loading the game (use F6 to speed up the loading instead).

I think Slicebit is a member (rings a bell), so he might help.
Now that I think about it I should register too... I am spanish and it is a retro forum where they speak about the Oric!

I was suspecting something about this (the loader), but I was not sure. Thanks for the advice Xeron! I informed to forum already.
Some people in forum "speak" english and we will be proud to have you between ourselves.
