The A500 Mini, a new compact version of the Amiga 500 home computer, will be released on March 25, 2022. It’s expected to bring along a total of 25 classic Amiga games in its expandable library.

This little retro mini will have the ability to emulate A500, A600, and A1200, and players will be able to save and resume their progress of any game at any time. A huge feature included is that users will be able to add their own games to the library via USB stick through WHDLoad, so each person can have a library of retro classics tailored to their own personal gaming tastes.
