Very good tips, shall be doing some 'none invasive' surgery to my Amiga mini tonight after watching this - awesome 😇🕹👌

thanks a lot for your amazing work again!you will make me take the amiga mini out of the box again :D

*ATTENTION* : 1.11 update now WORKS with Pandory v2. If you want to stay at stock firmware, you'll need to use the first release. - Set A500mini video options to 60HZ, or RetroArch will stutter

Thanks, you help getting my Amiga 500 Mini Pandory back up and running and doing all this work.

Guys, you're rock stars! I think you're gonna boost sales of the A500 mini. Thank you for neglecting your own lives for the pleasure of others. I appreciate that.

YES!! Finally the Amiga gets the Street Fighter 2 it deserves! 🤘🤘 Awesome work gents!

This is hilarious in a cool way! Looking forward to getting the Mini next month in NA and use this.

I have been looking for this all day. Thank you very much.

Whenever I start pandory, all I see is the A500 start screen, that hand holding a disk. Any ideas what is wrong?

Wow..Amazing work. It's soo beautiful.🤘🏻

Well!...I'm frick'n sold now darn it! Thnx alot!🤣 Leave it to you to make it playable!🎮👾🕹️

Ahem... so as I was saying. You guys consistently take the decent and make it - er... in-decent! irri-decent? Meh... better! 😆 Nicely done lads!

Will test it tomorrow, looks great 🙂

very nice work - especially the linux shell and toolchain - I was wondering if an updated amiberry 4.1x or even 5.1 might be forthcoming so we could benchmark if the hardware can support it and have an idea if RGL will eventually update amiberry themselves with firmware updates. Maybe a weekend project for myself. Awesome work once again Team Pandory - thank you.

Perfect ! Thanks to the team.

Awesome work 👌

Well this is a bit good isn't it? I will definitely be downloading this for my mini!

So cool to see how i can extend my A500 mini with these mods... Thanks for the info. I was wondering what are some good resources to get additional game ROMS as mentioned in this video. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for all of your really great work on this! I just *had* to make a donation 😊 Please tell that you're continuing to work on the Pandory A500 Mini 'hack'? It'd be a shame if you didn't 😞

I mainly just want this to run talkies on my ScummVM, but it'd also be nice for SNES and Sega mouse titles and games that were better on other computers...

Unlike my ex-girlfriend told me, it looks pretty, it looks really really pretty. I'm always impressed with you guys, but the quality and quickness of your development for this has been amazing. P.S. I also really don't have an ex-girlfriend. I just say that for attention

So when you say, refresh so it can see my games, how exactly does one do that?

Excellent work!

This old slogan is still relevant "Only AMIGA makes it possible". I bought A500 Mini today. It's basically a A1200 on steroids.

Great! (as always!) 😎👍 Coming out my Italian video review of "The A500 mini"... of course I'll show your awesome patch! 😁😁

Even PS1 games... how, thats awesome btw. I didnt think the specs on the A500 mini would be able to support this. Nice one.

i found on the whole, things run better. demos that used to glitch or slow down dont as much but i still cant sort the disk change thing. its so complicated. ill try again tonight. the 9 fingers demo now runs smoothly but the load screen is glitched over it throughout. the mental hangover demo is fixed completely, whoop whoop.

Make sure you a500 is in 60hz for ntsc games.. for PAL games make sure your a500 is in 50hz and your retroarch core is set to PAL and using a PAL game

Thankyou for this.. will have to test 50hz by setting amiga into 50hz to see if it can run pal systems correctly

2-player mice games! I think we'll need a guide for that! It can't be THAT easy!

This looks like overkill for what I want to do. I just ordered my a500 mini and I just want to be able to run Octamed, Protracker, and Bars and Pipes, and other music software. What's the best way to go about this?

Good job guys as always

Great job guys! Thank U...

EMU CHICKEEEEEEEN!!! I just bought an Amiga Mini hahaha, what news you bring Sir! How's things anyway buddy? You seem chirpy... no reference to Chicken at all there lol Amazing project buddy, keep up the good work.

How to quit pandory and turn off the a 500 mini console? Thank you.

Hmm it's me again, I can't get any controls to work in the Atomiswave emu.. I have to unplug the machine to switch it off. Start+Select and hold Start do nothing.

It looks brilliant 👌

Apparently Retro Games Limited are releasing a fix update for the firmware tomorrow (13/5/22) that will fix the F12 issue and the lost WHDLoad saves. Not sure if itll resolve issue with Pandory no longer work after firmware update

Absolutely incredible work!! I can't download it until tomorrow to answer this question.... What format(s) are supported for Amiga roms?

Hello. I have a problem with MAME and I can't find a solution. I use Pandory on an A500 Mini. Today I tried to play with 2 players but it is impossible to set up and use the second pad. The second pad works perfectly in all menus and on some emulators I've tried. But in MAME I can only use one pad. When accessing the MAME controller configuration, it tells me that it IS NOT SUPPORTED. I have tried several different pads (Ps4, generic, switch...), they all worked in the menu and in other emulators, but not in MAME, here only one of the 2 connected pads works. How can I use 2 pads in MAME to play with 2 players simultaneously? Thank you so much!

Thank you very much!!!!

Thank you. After scanning for new Games, how do I get back ???

Wow, amazing work! I played commander keen and speed is awesome! I am using mac now, so all those hidden directories under pandory are not visible, otherwise i would install more old dos games onto it. Maybe i will try to borrow my nephew’s windows computer and see if i can install more retro games onto this stick.

The saga continues

Hoping more is coming for us folks on original FW

Hi I wonder if you can help i have put a game in the dos file mega drive but when i go there i cant see it to play it if anyone can help me with this please

Amazing job well done...

Hello I can't add roms I'm on MacBook Pro M1 and I can't see anything apart from 4 files 2 txt 1 une and 1LHA if you knew how to make a tuto to explain how to do it on Mac Ventura, a big thank you in advance to everyone.

wow i just wish in the states it will drop in price i hope.

Installed via mac and the ROM folders are missing? Can anyone help?

Well now, this explain your silence in the groups recently.... Holy shit what have you done Tim?!?!?🖤🖤🖤

Thanks sooooo much!! 👏👏👏

Bonjour et merci pour votre travail

God work Pandory team ...thank you ! 👍 The A500 can be better with your update than before for true players ,not only for (as usual) garbage collectors ....

Great one !

Any updates on the Hack? Hope you find a way to make it work with Firmware v1.1.1. And pleeeease fix the Audio Playback in 50Hz...

When the Pandory screen loads up the background music is really slow for some reason..not sure what I did wrong

Having a play now. How do I exit a game without having to switch off my A500 mini? I must be missing something simple. Tried various keys on keyboard and virtual keyboard!

This is awesome! 👏

very nice.. good job!

I noticed a firmware update came out today, does anyone know if this breaks Pandory? UPDATE! DO NOT UPDATE FIRMWARE AS THIS BREAKS PANDORY TO THE AMIGA DOS SCREEN. UPDATE 2! PANDORY STILL BROKEN ON FIRMWARE V1.1.1

This is amazing!

THANK YOU! ❤️

why pandory when I put it does not work for me

why does it go to amiga workbench v1.3 logo and stick once starting up pandory?

How can I run RetroArch on the C64 Mini console? Of course, I mean running the NES / SNES / SMD / GBA emulator without PSX, which is difficult in hardware ? : )

I didn’t update the firmware hehe 😃

Added snes 9x and mame2003 next cores to Pandory ext2 file.. they show but won't run.. any chance you can offer more cores for this lively hack

thanks but I don't see the covers, what can I do?

I have a problem with the aspect ratio in the menu. The games run normally, but in the menu the whole image is stretched and does not fit on the TV screen. I tried tv settings but nothing can be done.

New to this love the mini, but could anyone tell me how to save games?

Great work what`s the best 128gb pendrive? I find it funny with some thanks

I just did the fw update for the mini to version 1.1. Now Pandory keeps hanging on the shell screen and won't load. Did I made a mistake ? Otherwise, top emulation

Hello. Nice video. Can I use same program to play movies or mp3 on the The A500 mini? Can I use a AROS system? 😶

Anybody knows what fileformat I can use for Atari ST "roms" disk images?

whats the biggest size of usb key i can use

I can't seem to add roms/games to the playlists. tried the directory scan but no luck. Am i missing something?

NOOO! I updated two days ago!!! Damn!! is there any chance to make it work?? :((((

Wow! Thankyou

This is just amazing! That being said I have a problem with the added roms: Pandory is not showing them... any help? Thanks

Has anyone figured out how to replace the background music with your own? Can't seem to find any .ogg or .wav files from the install.

Great work guys! such a shame the PC Engine mini softmod was never completed, but this goes along way to soothe the pain lol p.s what are the limits performance wise for the A500 mini emulation wise? Dreamcast/PSP?

When are you making a new update to fix the mini update problems? Are you fixing it or not bothering, let us know thanks.

Any idea why running the Flappy Bird N64 game that came with this crashes the A500 mini? Most of the other games that came with it run fine...is there a new N64 core or something available to fix this issue?

I've always been against updating my devices. Now it pays off. I'm thinking of buying another A500 Mini before the new ones also come with an update.

Absolutely love this and many thanks. Just one question, how do you disable the RA menu music?

Hello! Today they gave me the Mini A500 and I am not able to make Pandory or anything work... I have followed the tutorial to copy everything to a FAT32 usb, the A500 recognizes it, but when I start it, only the screen to insert Amiga disk appears. I have firmware version manhattan-1.0.1... What can I be doing wrong? Thanks a lot!!

Hi, I'm using an Android tablet to download and then unzip the folders to a USB stick. But when I look in the folders most of the files are missing even though I downloaded all of them. What's going on?

Amazing!

Por que no me funciona Pandory

So to sum up, there is a fully working C64 emulator for The A500 Mini, right? It would be awesome if that device did both Amiga and C64. After all, C64C looked kinda like an Amiga.

Does anyone know how to add the box art for roms that I add to pandory?

what do you think of ppsspp core, core for the dreamcast, ffmpeg core, fb alpha core, psx beetle, neo geo cd, nintendo ds core, mame 2003 core, mame 2003 plus, mame?

When I first saw this box, I had the usual eye roll that comes with these sub standard retro devices that is just a short term cash cow. Subsequent improvements have made it look a little better but somehow, still not enough to inspire. But if this demo is something to go by, it looks fantastic to see the range of systems supported. Seeing smooth N64 and PS1 is great. I do however start to wonder what the range of supported games for these higher end systems (for this kind of device that is) is really supported, so it would be useful to see just how far this can be pushed and what the realistic limits are. Great modding work overall though, whatever the results.

My USB doesn't show up on my Mini. What does fat32 mbr mean I couldn't see it when I formatted my USB stick just fat32. I'm using a 16gig stick and my mini has not been updated.

To teraz będzie można uruchomić np. Crasha , Gran Turismo 2 , Soul Blade , Tekkena 3 , Tom Raidera 2 , WipEout 2097 czy Colin McRae 2 ??? Aż mi się wierzyć nie chce ... jest szansa na jakąś próbkę jak to by wyglądało ? pzdr.

what is the gba game you are playing that looks a bit like Military Madness for the Turbografx?

This is amazing!! Any chance we could ever see an EmulationStation style front end ported over this?

Superb job 👍 Do you think Goldeneye on the N64 would work OK? What about Mario kart?

Sorry if I'm being the dunce kid in class but the whdload file included breaks being able to sideload lha files, yet Retroarch still works using the 'stock' whdload (from the WHDLoad Package). Is there any reason to use the one included in this release?
