The developers are in the United States.  They showed off the MCC-216 at the Cincinnati Commodore Computer Club Expo 2010 and at the Las Vegas Classic Gaming Expo 2010.

So has the Amiga core been released yet?
At last Sunday's meeting, SCCAN member Matt brought in his newly-purchased MCC-216 (VGA) and MiniMig with the latest updates.  There was no Amiga core yet.  The C64 NTSC and C64 PAL cores seemed to be working well.  He showed the game, Commando, in the NTSC core and gameplay and sound was good, though I saw some "ghosting" on the trees of the game.  He cleared that up by fiddling with the MCC settings.

The Atari 2600 core worked on the few games he showed, except for Star Trek.  The MCC crashed/locked up every time we tried to get Star Trek going.

The MiniMig seems to be just getting better and better.  Very stable with the latest updates.  For fun, he ran SysInfo on it, and SysInfo reported 56 MHz..  Cowabunga!  :)

For the July 23-24 Commodore Vegas Expo, ArcadeRetroGaming.com may send us a MCC-216 (VGA version) with a new A500 core.

They twisted my arm to give a presentation on the MCC-216.  It'll be after 3 on Sunday afternoon... as everybody starts packing up.  :)

At the July 18-19 Commodore Vegas Expo v11 2015, the MCC-216 returns, this time with the latest goodies and cores - Commodore 64, Amiga 500, Apple II, ZX Spectrum, and Atari 800XL.  SCCAN member Matt will be at the show to demonstrate how to install OS 3.1 into the MCC instead of OS 1.3 and how to use his beta installer in order to add cores and games easily into the MCC's directory structure.

If you can't attend CommVEx, Matt has posted his video of installing OS 3.1 into the MCC at
