Crossed Wires

The Amiga Now & Then

30 Mar 2022

Description

Keeping with our retro theme, I talk with YouTuber and RetroHour host, Dan Wood, about all things Amiga. We take a look at the costs, and risks, of purchasing original Amiga hardware today, the upgrades you could put into these original machines, as well as things to watch out for. Then, moving swiftly on we talk a bit about emulation, the mess that is the Amiga copyright and of course piracy! Before putting Dan on the spot for his favourite Amiga games and apps, what Amiga chat could be complete in 2022 without talking about The A500 Mini as a little teaser for Dan’s fantastic video. I really hope you enjoy this episode, a huge thanks to Dan for his time and insights. Make sure you subscribe in your podcast app of choice, tell your friends.
