So, you're saying the 216 does not currently do Amiga either? Even though it's supposedly advertised as such?


It's not advertised as such.  The eBay write-up clearly says:

The MCC ships today with the Commodore C-64 emulation. The Commodore Amiga emulation and the ATARI 2600 will follow soon with a simple Software upgrade.

As if it was written by someone from berry, berry far east!
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.

I think the best thing about this one is that its pricing is starting to get to a point where, for the features, one might consider it a decent value.

Hardware emulation of three systems in a small box that hooks up to modern displays for $150 instead of emulation of just one system in hardware for over $200.

Yeah, but how well does it work compared to MiniMig and the Replay Board for the Amiga part ?

When it comes to the Atari core, I could not care less :-D :-D

However, I would very much like a status update on the C64 core for the Replay board.

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.

With SysInfo that means the core could be running from any speed from 20MHz to 100MHz. Useless POS with a nice interface.

It looks like the Natami people are looking at more 'real-life' benchmarks for 68k processors however.

Wow, really slick!

Is it me or does it seem to run faster than a native 68000 Amiga? Have you tried SysINFO on it? Wonder what it would report back...
