    Hi all

    Do we have any amiga fans on here? I'm getting back into a few games that I played as a kid in the 90s. I had an Amiga 600 and then an Amiga 1200 that I bought an 8mb expansion board for, kick ass times. I had my trusty dot matrix ribbon printer too of course, sound sampler, external floppy drive. Loved it, any other retro gaming fans here?

    In 1988 I got an A500, loved it, sold it around 1995. I had a 1084s monitor, 1 mb expansion, A590 20mb SCSI. It was 1.2 originally so I upgraded the roms to 1.3 and the Agnus from OCS to fatter 1MB Agnus ECS.

    I tried WinUAE / Amiga Forever / Pimiga, they were ok.
    Recently I picked up a A1200 and a TF1260, played with it a little, refurbed the keyboard and case, added 3.2 roms.

    Hoping to maybe get back into 68000 asm coding maybe with devpac.

    Never had an Amiga, but did have the Atari 400 before switching to the NES and Sega system :)

    You’ve just reminded me that I had a 25 or 100 meg hard drive. I forget which in my 600. Good times

    Amiga 500 here back in the day – also got the memory upgrade so I could get action replays in Indy 500 – what a game!

    Played Kick Off 2 constantly – loved that game! :)
