*waves*
« on: August 22, 2011, 04:18:18 AM »
Hello all. I'm Insidious. I'm a 23 year old American male who was utterly unaware of the Amiga in the 90s, and have just recently in the past 10 years been experimenting with it in UAE, I've had great fun with Cannon Fodder and the Turrican series, and am looking to see if I can get my first Amiga hardware of my own sometime in the future. Unfortunately, I understand from researching that the PAL Amigas have the best selection of software and obviously being in America acquiring one of these seems to be either extremely expensive or out of reach! For this reason, I joined the forums so that I could express my interest in an FPGA Arcade board to do Minimig AGA with! If any extremely generous person in Massachusetts would like to give away an A500/A600/A1200 or part with one for somewhat cheap (I'm currently living on disability) I'd also be very interested! But I'm getting off track. In any case, hello Amiga.org!

99.9% of cases you can switch modes in software to get most of the worst such software to work. Don't worry about PAL/NTSC.
