Introduction

Prototypes, Rebuilds, and other new Amiga projects that just dont quite fit anywhere else on the web site will end up in here. if you know of any Amiga project that should be covered let me know.

Amiga Fantasy

Concept Amiga Hardware

PROTOTYPE / CONCEPT ONLY

  • A1200 type setup
  • Vampire V4 type specs
    • 68080 CPU 100Mhz
    • Super AGA
    • 4mb Chip Ram
    • 64mb Fast Ram
    • HDMI
    • USB
    • MicroSD
  • CD/DVD Rom Drive
  • 1.44mb High Dens Floppy Drive

This concept of the next Amiga has been flying around the Amiga world for years, it kinda of shows that the all in keyboard design could of worked for a next gen Amiga and there was no need for Walker / Tower Amiga. in a way I am a little surprise I’ve not really seen anyone really try and build a real replica, sure I have seen A1200 with DVD rom installed, but not as neat as this. Will we ever seen an Amiga like this? Who knows.

AmigaCD64

PROTOTYPE / CONCEPT ONLY

  • Raspberry Pi 3 /4
  • Emulated Cd32 setup

Done as a April Fools joke what would a new next gen AmigaCD32 may look like? This system could easily built from off the shelve components, such as Raspberry Pi3, add a cd/dvd drive and setup an emulator for CD32, system build the concept was discuss on AmigaWorld.net.

Natami

PROTOTYPE / CONCEPT ONLY

  • FPGA Amiga
  • Basically Became Vampire v4

NatAmi is a project by Thomas Hirsch which aims to create a successor to the AGA Amiga's. It will be compatible, but it's aim will be to update (faster, more features) instead of 100% compatibility like Minimig. A prototype was shown at MeKa 2008. However the project broke down, but much of the work done went into becoming Vampire v4. During its development some people made concepts of what a Natami System could look like, above is my design that I created in Sketchup and below is one made by Faerytale.

Amiga A1000 Laptop

A concept that appeared in Amiga Format February 1993 magazine about the idea that Commodore / Amiga could develop an Amiga Laptop and what would be its Dream Specs? Looks like a A600 keyboard with a kinda CD32 drive bolted on.
