We look at how to setup AGS on the A500 Mini and retro console that originally gives you 25 classic Amiga games but we will be increase that number into the 1000's
You need a empty 32gb+ USB memory stick. Formatted FAT32.
No additional kickstart roms are required as they are already licenced on the A500 mini.
A500 mini pandory allow you to go into Workbench and get even more performace out of your A500 Mini.

It uses HSTWb installer for the Raspberry Pi to install Amiga OS 3.2.1
I also show how to prepare and download WHDLoad Pack from the EAB or Turran FTP server. HSTWb packages up the EAB WHDLoad Pack for us and it results in quite a nice Raspberry Pi 400 Amiga setup.
The last time I tried to do something like this was my horrors of Raspberry Pi 400 video last year.
Thankfully this was more successful and cheaper.

This can run on both Intel Macs and the newer M1 or M2 Macs.
This video showing downloading and installing the emulator and then copying over Amiga Kickstart ROMS from a Windows installation.
I then download an example WHDLoad game and run it in FS-UAE.
FS-UAE is a great Mac alternative to WinUAE.
