I am just wondering if this fpgaarcade/Minimig AGA device is going to drive the Natami to its knees and leave it in agony?
I am just seen it from a pure real, practical & economical point of view:

Fpgaarcade has already got production units
Cost is 200 euro (Later batches are announced to be at least 50 euro cheaper due to NRE)
It is open source
Does not require a real 68k in its design

On the other hand the Natami:
Is closed source
There are only few prototypes that dont fully work
Cost is near 700-1000 US$
Hasnt got implemented the so called new features yet

Please dont take this as bashing, it is just what I actually see.
