Scrolling YouTube I was pleasantly surprised to see some stalwarts were still making Amiga games
Is there a central repository/ announcements page / e-zine that lists upcoming releases? And - can boxed copies (with feelies) still be bought? I've been out of the scene for decades, sorry if these questions are silly.

Subject: i know it's not a real Amiga and it's just a Raspberry Pi running Amiberry/Pimiga but i thought it would be fun to have an actual Amiga case badge
Subject: Are you a fan of Another World!? Enjoy the FULL fan demake of the classic Another World intro and iconic cutscenes. This video was made with no budget, socks, Lego, dodgy stop-motion animation and my cat Moe to recreate Eric Chahi's classic.
Subject: So...which is more popular in 2022: the C64 or the Amiga?
IIRC, the C64 sold around four times as many units as the Amiga did (12ish million vs 3ish, according to Wikipedia). If you were there at the time, you probably remember the early rivalry. But all of that happened a long, long time ago.
In 2022, which is more popular with retro-tech hobbyists (and why!), in your opinion?

Hi All I'm working on restoring an A1200, and while it's disassembled I want to replace the 2 DB9 and all the DB25 connectors on the main board. Does anyone happen to know the part numbers for a large distributor (eg Mouser, Digikey, Element14) so I can order them - or a supplier that has them? I've searched Mouser, but there's so many different variations I want to be sure I'm ordering the right ones. Thanks!

Subject: Found the original disk to this lovely mashup. Hope this brings fond memories to others out there!
Did anyone have any luck with getting Historyline 1914-18 to run on the A500mini yet?
When started, the game complains that "CUSTOM1 needs to be set" and terminates immediately.
After some research, it looks like the game needs to be started with the following WHDLoad arguments: "Historyline.Slave PRELOAD CUSTOM1=2"
However, I don't know how to tell the A500mini (or more specifically, the amiberry version running on it) to use these arguments. I've figured out that after opening the game options, a file called "Historyline_v1.5_1569_ol.uae" is created on the USB drive. Based on information found elsewhere, I have manually added the following line to this file:
whdload_custom1=2
Unfortunately, this appears to have no effect, the game still complains, that CUSTOM1 needs to be set...
Is there any other way to enforce using these arguments?

Hi, revisiting the Amiga after a long time away. Is there any new software game or other being released for the Amiga?

Subject: Was there ever a standard way to enter international characters on the Amiga?
What the title says. Looking for the full setup, card, cable, software.
