minimig just for gaming?

[gxenakis]

I am thinking about getting a minimig just for classic amiga gaming! I had an Amiga 600 in the old days, and I recently found out about the minimig and I am really excited about it.

I am googling the last 3 days about it and I am totally confused! :confused:

Do I need 2 or 4 mb version ?
Do I need arm or not ?

I read that minimig is facing problems with multi disk games. Also I contact amigakit and they informed that minimig with 4mb has hd support. That means I will be able to play whdload games?

I remember that my Amiga 600 had only 1mb ram and I was able to play rise of the robots! an 11-12 disk game!

thank you for reading this post.

So I could play any 2 disc game and that's all. No monkey island It is strange that I cannot swap disks!

Will I be able to save progress with virtual drives?

I read that ARM controller gives you the possibility to have 4 virtual drives. but it cost half the price of minimig!

I've google the FPGAarcade but there is no release date!

now I am thinking about a minimig 2mb to have around while waiting for the FPGAarcade to come out! :hammer:

I could play most of the classic game and when FPGA comes out, hard core playing!

I think that minimig will help me also to get in touch again with all the tips and tricks custom boards require.

Natami looks promising that I do not think that it will be released soon!

Also I am sure that FPGAArcade will be out of stock the first day! Another thing I noticed is that minimig was advertised as a A500/600 clone, but FPGAArcade is not! Confusing :angry:
