Are you buying an FPGA Amiga?

I'm looking at the Replay board. I've been wanting an FPGA development board, and it makes more sense to get one already optimized to be an Amiga as well as those other retro machines.

That will then all be in the head. I guess if you don't see the computer itself you would have a hard time making a difference between a real A1200 and a FPGA based amiga.

So, a sort of "Turing Test" for the Amiga. ;-)

I kinda think of the FPGA Amigas as the modern version of that monstrous multi-board wire-wrapped prototype from back in the Elder Days.

So I understand the AGA FPGA Replay board is built upon a Spartan FPGA board. So what is Natami made from? Is it completely homebrew? Or built upon something? I don't get that.

Both the Replay and Natami are custom boards. The original minimig used a stock Spartan 3 development board with two hand built boards for the CPU and the PIC system controller.
