A few noob Minimig questions :)
« on: January 01, 2008, 09:39:56 AM »
Ok here we go -

1. Is Minimig an emulator on a board, or its really an Amiga (500?) clone?

2. How good is Minimig - would one be able to see the difference between it and a real Amiga 500 when running the same game side by side?

3. How's the scrolling in games on the minimig? Usually from what I see, this seems to be the hardest bit to get right in emulation.

4. What resolution and frequency will the Minimig output (good to know if using an LCD monitor)?

5. Last but not least - I want the minimig to replay all the games I loved when I was a kid (and who does not), will this serve the purpose alright... in other words, should I get a minimig, should it be right time to put all my classic amiga stuff in a box in the attic :) ?

Thanks folks :) And be patient with my lame questions!

regards and happy new year



E'Blue

Wow - thanks a lot for the very expansive reply!

One more thing, should there be an upgrade to the Minimig, say to fix the blitter bug, wil I have to buy a new minimig, or the chips can be  upgraded by software?

Thanks again :)

Anyone knows what resolution minimig outputs to?

1024 x 768 would be nice on my 15" TFT monitor. Anything else would look blurred :(
