TONIGHT 8pm BST at twitch.tv/NAG_Graham - another look at #Amiga games from the year 1994, this time focusing on non-AGA titles. Including this little lot - once again a mix of the good, the bad and the... well, you'll just have to find out...

No, I was never asked. Obviously this is a good thing but at the same time, it feels a bit like the equivalent of when supermarkets stop asking for ID when you buy alcohol...

TONIGHT 8pm BST at twitch.tv/NAG_Graham - more from the A-Z of Amiga arcade conversions as we finally reach the letter S, where most games seem to reside. We might even find a good game or two, who knows? Come and join us as we review and rate even more arcade ports...

TONIGHT 8pm BST at twitch.tv/NAG_Graham - it's yet another look at some #Amiga Action coverdisks, as we end 1993 and begin (logically enough) 1994. Plenty of big demos, including an unreleased game, and some PD stuff to come too...

Public Domain Magazine, the bible of free software for Amiga, ST and PC has never been scanned. Until now!

We look at its complex coverdisk, how you got free software when the internet was only 3 months old and what connects this show and the magazine within a magazine.

No stream tonight but a reminder that I do have a YouTube channel consisting of my old VODs, so if you're interested in #Amiga games of all kinds (and occasionally others too), why not drop a sub? All timestamped too: youtube.com/@nagstreamar...

Physical edition of Fast Food Dizzy 2 for the #Amiga arrived today from @bitmapsoft.bsky.social - an excellently-presented package it is too.

Front of the Fast Food 2 box with Dizzy artwork, on a beach with various food items scattered about.

The back of the box with screenshots and blurbs.

TONIGHT 8pm BST at twitch.tv/NAG_Graham - #Amiga games... that weren't? Yep - a lot of games didn't come out despite being virtually finished, and others didn't get very far. We've got a number of them to look at tonight - and wonder at what might have been...

4/4

Lemmings on the A500 (from original disk).

More people gathered around an Amiga, possibly a PSU test...

Oh yes! A motherboard with a new PSU being tested.

Some SWOS matches were also played on an Amiga 600.

Inside that white A500. On an A500++ board, with RGB2HDMI board, but not a lot of other upgrades.

NOT AN AMIGA! shouts the Tetris high score table on the Commodore PC.

A lovely Amiga 1000, upgraded with OS3.1.

Rack-mounted CDTV and screen, with Immortal Joysticks sticker on the front (guess who owns this one), and Speedball 2 on screen.

And the smart custom carry case for said Amiga.

More people milling about and chatting. Some ordering at the bar by the looks of it.
