Bought an Amiga mini and downloaded all the old games! Have to say it is awesome!

Does wvery game load alright or is it temperamental as always? Feels like it has to be for the true Amiga experience!
I can't remember that mind.

They play just as well. Plays better when the screen size is on fixed and looks like that 14” bedroom tv. They’re a bit blockier on modern tv/monitors. I’ve benchmarked that on jimmy whites snooker vs an old YouTube video. Still very playable though

Tempted to get one. I had a 2nd hand one as a bairn before I got my Playstation and I loved it, 2 cases full of copied games as well as a few originals. Loved Soccer Kid, Speedball, Stunt Car Racer, Theme Park, Microprose Soccer, James Pond, Road Rash, Lemmings, Shufflepuck Cafe, Arcade Pool, Bart vs the Space Mutants, Cannon Fodder
What a machine

Not quid Soectrum ZX dodgy but I have vivid memories of pulling back the metal spring thing on the disk and blowing the dust out when stuff wouldn’t load!
I hadn't realised that was a thing. I bought the later A600, so maybe they'd sorted it by then.

Maybe not always official versions of games didn’t help!
Nah, I was such ever a follower of that either
I was looking at the Amiga mini last year but ended up going for raspberry pi400 and installing pimiga on it. It’s free and there’s guides on YouTube.
Worked out about £60 for 6000 Amiga games and demos. Player Manager got some hammer for a while, but it’s now gathering dust in the cupboard.

That boxing game is on that site

Does anyone remember the noise the disk drive would make if it was refusing to load a game? Kind of a long crunch. It’s burned into my brain! Mind you, every single game I had was copied off mates. Thank you X-Copy III.

Was my go to on my old Atari ST. Banana power to max was always hilarious
Fancy getting a raspberry pi 5 and setting up a retro gaming box again. I had one on an rpi2 that worked ok, but was a bit slow sometimes. I imagine the rpi5 will solve that :-D
