yeah, the price will be interesting, but I am willing to pay a pretty good sum for a machine like this

The best news is that with the FPGA Arcade rumoured to be around the 200 EURO mark, we now have two options like we used to back in the "glory days" when you picked between the A500 and the A2000 or the A1200 and A4000.

To me, my FPGA Arcade is going to be my games machine, especially as it will be running multiple systems (C64, Spectrum, Atari ST and classic arcade games), while the Natami is a replacement for my more "serious" A4000.
A2000, A3000, 2 x A1200T, A1200, A4000Tower & Mediator, CD32, VIC-20, C64, C128, C128D, PET 8032, Minimig & ARM, C-One, FPGA Arcade... and AmigaOne X1000.

Agree with you 100%. Although the Natami is supposed to run anything from 1.3 to 3.9 i will still be using it as my heavy weight Amiga Computer. Can't wait to see those Natami only games too.. :D

Now all we have to wait for is the testing then production.... i hope they produce enough.

Also to all the people who said Vapour ware.... :p :p :p :p :p :p :p


+ 1,000,000 ... :)

Just spent the past two weeks spending nearly 800 quid buying loads of old Commodore & Amiga goodies from eBay, AmigaKit and here to finish of my collection, but the NatAmi is gonna have a very special place in my wee Commodore Museum... :)

(just hope the old ticker doesn't give out with all the excitement before it goes on sale... ;))

Well, I was one of them and the only way I know how to apologise to the Natami team is to purchase their product.  I just hope they accept it.  :D

This is awesome!!! Finally a REAL Amiga. :)


Yup, this is the first piece of new hardware that I consider a real bonafide 100% Amiga.  I like all of the other options (X1000, MorphOS, UAE) but this is a REAL hardware Amiga in the classic sense.

Yep that's why i am excited!!! This is an Amiga in all but name (more then any other product out there) with AROS or OS3.9 cant wait to start programming on it....
The only real problem is a case for it... :D may have to dig up my woodworking tools and Dremel... :D

I believe this is one of the aims, so that they can ship it fully functional. There's certainly been talk about it on the Natami forum.


There's even a "please support the AROS kickstart replacement bounty" banner on the Natami site. There's some purists there that insist on wanting AmigaOS, though, and they'll get theirs too as the Natami team does have a  bunch of licenses to bundle with the boards (just as well, since though AROS m68k is improving very rapidly, it likely still will be a while before it'll be suitable for regular use)

Drool... where's the buy it now button... :)

Don't care what the price is, me want's one, now... :)

Here! Press the shiny 'But it Now' button !



Uh this is kinda trumps the other FPGA Replay Board -  AGA project going on though... It's crazy we have all these 'options' emerging, but great.
