Yet, why an accelerator? Just have the whole system on chip...


Good question, but if you've already got the whole system with a slow CPU and want to accelerate it then it makes sense.

Also the "whole system" doesn't yet exist, although Yaqube might have solved that, so it makes sense to build it in parts.
Make a replica of the OCS/ECS (MiniMig) using a real 68k - - > then along came TG68k.
use the TG68k in a real AGA amiga  - - > someone (Yaqube) builds a replica AGA.

Beside even when there is Mikej's, Natami, SuperMiniMig3.0 & TG68 + YaqubeAGA some people will still want to replace dead CPU boards in their A1/2/3/4000s.

Just my opinion.

There's something I'd like to do that would be an FPGA on an accelerator card anyway, it would be interesting to allow it to do what I want as well as to act as a standalone TG68 or Natami CPU accelerator as well.


Doooooo iiiiiiiit! You know the the hypno-toad would want you too ;)
