Amiga Coldfire project dead?

[Tension]

AGA is a Kludge, same rubbish parallax with 8 extra colours wooo, same sound and a slow slow 256 colour mode. It was too little too late and only an idiot would argue otherwise. Even the 1987 Acorn Archimedes had faster 256 colour mode (and faster CPU than A4000/030 with 8 channel stereo sound actually). You read too much ass licking reviews in Amiga Format perhaps about how amazing AGA is

And yes the Sega Megadrive was out in 89/90 in Japan and CD32 1993.

And actually the CD32 is an even bigger kludge than A4000/1200, it should have had 1mb chip 1mb fast ram if they couldn't be bothered to put a SIMM socket on it for 50 pence as it cripples the CPU to 50% max speed!

On a more serious note, I always thought that AGA was a different architecture than OCS/ECS, and thus, I cant see how it could be called a Kludge.

Perhaps ECS was a kludge...

[Tension]

like I said either stick a damned £1 SIMM socket on the board or make it 1mb chip/1mb fast.

Is it really that simple or would extra chips be needed to interface the RAM to the CD32?

If so, why the hell didn't they do it?  Even the N64 had upgradable memory!

I do like the CD32 though...  What a bloody shame they couldn't get them into America near the end over some stupid royalties issue.  It really could have given Commodore a last chance at stardom
