The A500 Mini was featured on the latest episode of the Scene World podcast. By the sound of things, the team seems to have struck a reasonable compromise between features, cost and parts availability.

Yeah, and what’s best, sideloading via USB is officially supported (see photo). Someone’s finally doing a mini console right!

Ok, then I want one, big time even.

Will there be compatibility issues, I wonder? I was big into Amiga games but only for like two years and the scene died in my area. Will this run Blood Money or Faery Tale Adventure? I spent most of my time on the 2000 and 2500HD, I knew a guy with a 500. Is it a “500 Mini” because it only does what a 500 did or can we assume it runs anything?

Kinda want to mess with Deluxe Paint again…

Can I download 240p porn from BBS? How do I hook up my Televeyes Pro in the age of HDMI? I wonder if they will make a 68000/68030 select screen…
