Haha, I would be super excited if this was 1995. You could try running AROS on it, it's SUPPOSEDLY compatible with the Amiga but if you want a classic system that will work, UAE.
@@danwood_uk Dear Dan hello. I saw you were testing the PiMiga. As per Keito i found this comment by him...
"PiMiga v1.2b image for Raspberry Pi 4
Warning: due to mistake on creators' side, the image is infected with Amiga virus HappyNewYear96. If you want to swap files between PiMIGA and another Amiga computer, use proper AV software, like killhappy.lha."
What are your thoughts on this?
And anyone willing to pishirnk the img will save 9GB "Shrunk pimiga_v1.2b_pi4.img from 29G to 20G .."
1 3 is out and virus-free as advised
PImiga . and works native on the PI400.... hmmmmm how do i know this? I made it...
Thank you!
Where? :)
Did you get rid of all those viruses? Great job, any other changes?
@@issabeganovic8822 what?
@UCUifsfFnPrss5vdks-Hvy9w it’s hard to keep up with everything Amiga with Amiga info scattered everywhere.
Absolute Legend!! The wife has mine wrapped up already for Christmas along with a competition pro usb joystick. Roll on 25th.
AWESOME! I have been 'hinting' at the wife too, much like I did with my parents back in 1986. I am hoping to capture that Christmas 1986 vibe when I opened up my C128, in 2020 with Pi 400.
If it's not there come Christmas I'll be online an hour later ordering one! :-)
Be caution, never trust a red blooded woman around a Amiga. You may end up with problems past Christmas, one Zool will tell. GOD BLESS.
Same here. I can already see my Pi400 wrapped up under the tree! Already got rid of my pi3 in readiness
i cant get any fire buttons to work in any games with this joystick, any ideas?
I’ve ordered one on the strength of this video alone. I’ve wanted a Pi for a few years but as someone who grew up with an A500, A600 and then an A1200, the lure was too strong. Great video, thank you 🙌🏻
Turrican 2! My favourite Amiga game ever!
Amazing! I’ve had my eye on this little machine but was waiting for someone to do a video like this (focussed on Amiga emulation). 🤘
Never get tired of the 'kickstarts are still under copyright' bit 😂
Needs must
@@danwood_uk You got sponsors and responsibilities, I get it :)
I have owned almost every Amiga model under the sun, and wouldn't be caught dead giving Cloanto a penny for work done in the 80's and early 90's by Commodore. If he/they eventually take over the development responsibility for the successors of AmigaOS 3.1.4 from Hyperion and actively carry that project forward, then of course I would fund such development and exclusively purchase those Roms.
@@uberdude2555 We get it, you want stuff for free, because historically, you once owned Amigas, and therefore you feel entitled to the Kickstart Roms. Despite the fact that you sold them or gave them away, you still have the right to do what you want? Quite legally, Cloanto has paid money to OWN the rights to that Rom code and can do whatever they wish with it. Do you apply the same logic to the new owners of your previous cars, houses and anything else you once owned? You just go and help yourself when you feel like it? It's old, outdated stuff, so it should be given away freely? Tell that to the owners of anything antique... see what response you get. Your sense of entitlement is misplaced. If you want to use something, have the decency to not steal it.
@@another3997 The previously owned cars point is absurd. It's the kind of argument the movie industry uses against copying software. I bought a 3.1 Kickrom license for my A500 with a pre-flashed EPROM, but I don't think it's great that someone bought the rights to sell them today when the alternative would be perfectly acceptable abandonware downloads. They don't even have an easy way to buy more licenses online. You have to buy an OS or buy pre-flashed EPROMs from a vendor. I just want the license because I can flash my own. I bet you have pirated games on your Amiga. If you were around back when you probably pirated games then as well. If you didn't you were very out of the ordinary.
amiga 500 was so good, best games machine back in the day
I'm addicted to your channel, this video in particular and the Raspberry Pi 400 (got one for this Xmas!)!
Another great video Dan, mine will hopefully arriving as a birthday present in next couple of weeks and that is my plan for it, so thanks for the easy to follow guide!
Great video Dan, really enjoyed it. Right before the Pi 400 came out I bought the Vilros all-in-one keyboard case for the Pi. Not great, wish I would have waited for this. Keep up the great videos!
Its like christmas 1991 all over again whoop
Its better than that, once the wait is over you get to keep your new Amiga forever.
Loved this video, Dan! Really tempting me to get onboard the pi400!
Always good to see a video from you Dan
Another great video!
Thanks for the information.
Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year!
That is absolutely fantastic reminds me of my Amiga 1200. Definitely on my wish list.
Bit of a story here Dan. I got my first Pi, a Pi2 B+ a few years ago with the express purpose of Amiga emulation. Set it up, gave it a go and ... that poor thing was underpowered for smooth Amiga emulation. So, it got turned into a PiHole, and has been running faithfully in that capacity every since. But this Pi 400 is the thing I've been dreaming of. Your video pushed me over the edge, and I've got one on my xmas wish-list. Hopefully wifey-Claus thinks I've been a good boy this year....
Excellent stuff sir, as always.
OMG! Thank You for this turorial! I’ll go right away and make my Raspberry an ultimate Amiga!
I've just ordered the same joystick to go with my Pi 400, so this is all quite good timing.
Fantastic installment Dan. I love the pi 400 and I love Amiga so it's a winner winner for me mate 🤗🤗
Another great vid Dan. As a kid who grew up with an A600 this really interests me. I have a RaspPi 3 set up for Amiga games but this format is much more appealing.
Great post Dan, Im sure I will be coming back for the various bits of guidance installing soon once the device arrives.

You forgot to mention the Pi-400 is make in the UK :) - at least mine was.
Just to clarify, the £93.90 price is for the Raspberry Pi KIT with mouse, keyboard, SD Card and leads. You can also get it as a standalone unit for £66.90.
Does that also include a PSU?
You also get a book with it. It comes with the super cute Raspnerry Pi mouse, matching 3amp USB C power supply, the HDMI cable and SD card with Raspberry Pi OS! You can add a nice big USB 3 SSD or hard drive and use the Raspberry Pi imager on the Pi itself to install software to it, no PC needed 😀
@@SpeccyMan Yes it does. It's a USB C power supply, rated at 3 amps.
I was doing fine talking myself out of this when I thought it was £100...
You have an amazing collection of operating systems.
It's great to see someone (Chris Titus is another) who uses the right OS for the job and explains that he has his personal preference but loves trying out and playing with all types of operating systems.
Variety is so much better than some odd brand loyalty a.k.a fanboyism.
Fantastic. Just got one of these and looking forward to giving this a go
Nice video Dan.
Yeah I was also pleasantly surprised with the keyboard quality, okay it’s not a high end gaming keyboard, buts it’s more than adequate.
The device does feel special... yeah I know it sounds silly but it does hit all the nostalgia tick boxes with it’s form factor.
Can’t wait for some of those distros to be updated for the pi400.
Keep up the good work.
Jase.
Wow I never thought I'd see that. This is amazing. My Amiga1200 was bulging case after I upgraded to 68030 CPU and 80 MB hard drive. I was able to interrupt games to "fly through" or inspect the memory using the visual debugger.
Nice one Dan, I think that's my Christmas prezzie sorted 😁
Screw apple silicon, I'm getting this.
Edit: actually, could you imagine if Apple put the mac mini in a keyboard?! Would save on aluminum maybe. That'd be sweet. They could call it the apple IIx
they do.. they call them macbooks lol
@@WX4CB yeah, but retro design. Saves money on a nice screen.
@@WX4CB Oh come on, you know what he means lol
@@edism Was there ever a Mac III? :D
@@XanthosAcanthus I don't know, the Retina displays are pretty kickass tbh.
Brilliant Dan...I`ve watched your youtube stuff for years now...Learned stuff too !
Great video Dan! I always steered clear of Atari/Amiga on retropi because of the slightly more complicated setup. Always love your vids!
Ya, I don't know what a kick start ROM is or whatever.
I looked for the link to buy and download it but there wasn't any.
I also don't own any games or ROMs for Amiga. I do have 100s of Atari games On disk but I have No idea how to get them off.
Got mine as a forthcoming christmas present off parents and cannot wait! Now im even more excited to turn it into an amiga pi!
Very nice, it's a lovely little machine!
Good stuff, got my first Pi today. It’s going to be a happy rabbit hole ... Was an ST user back in the day but secretly coveted an Amiga ...
Great video Dan. I'm so going to have to get one!
Hi Dan I thoroughly understand I also love the Raspberry Pi and have vertualy purchased every version of it including the pi400. Also I am an Amiga fan since 1986 when I use to go past the Amiga shop everyday and watch the juggler demo in the window.
These are 65 quid delivered from RS, total bargain, loads in stock, mines coming tomorrow, great video BTW, you've a great radio voice, always love your videos.
even though i have a 3+ and a 4, this vid has sold me, buying one right now for work. Thanks as always Dan!
AMIGA is the best example of retro gaming in my opinion
love your AMIGA videos Dan!
Nice vid Dan, looks awesome
I'd been waiting for something like this :)
Great video Dan 👍
Well, you've convinced me ... now I know what I want for Xmas.
If you don't have an extra Pi 4, all you need to do is edit cmdline.txt or rc.local after burning the image and add the update & upgrade commands to the boot sequence, then remove it after the first boot on the Pi 400 itself.
thanks for this info.
I am planning a raspberry pi 400. And this can help me.
would you believe it took me ten minutes to realise i recognised your voice from my favourite podcasts - The Retro Hour (Retro Gaming Podcast)
Top video dan love the show keep up the fab work
Thanks Dan another great video 👍
I was so impressed with this tutorial that I ordered an Rpi 400 from OKdo 3 days ago, turned up this morning. Couldn't find any microSD cards spare so I thought I'd take a crack at using the official Rpi Imager to flash RetroPie to a USB flash drive instead. That worked. Thought I'd try and boot from it without doing a firmware update, figuring as the official docs said you need something after August 2020 and it's about 3 weeks old. That also worked. I haven't had a chance to put ROMs and things on yet but my trusty wired Xbox 360 controller was as plug and play as Dan's tutorial led me to believe, so I'm impressed that the whole thing works substituting a microSD for a USB device straight out of the box. Good work all round really!
Just thought this might help people wondering about picking one up, and I'd say between this and LibreELEC soon to be updated for a good Kodi build (and potentially an easy way to dual boot with the USB and microSD as viable boot devices) you've got a stunning little multimedia device for, in my case, a shade over £65 with free delivery as I already had all the other gubbins lying around for power, a mouse etc.
P.S. although you can enter the WiFi SSID etc with the gamepad... just don't. With the kind of default case-changing alphanumeric gibberish ISPs set by default it's not fun. 😂
I never could afford an Amiga back in the day, but my old C64 remains to this day the most beloved computer I ever owned.
I sold my C64 incl. peripherals to afford an Amiga 500 :D
Great vid, big fan of the Amiga and have just picked a pi400. I did wonder if Pimiga would work on it, thanks for the upgrade instruction. I’m a very happy fan right now.
Pimiga would be 😎
Awesome video, hugs from Brazil 🇧🇷
Eben Upton looks like a near dead ringer for Jason Statham. One deals with Assembly, the other with Transporting. It's a perfect operation.
Great video. Great channel. Keep up the good work.
Another brilliant video, Dan!! Are you going to be able to have your usual Christmas party video, this year? 🎄🎄🎄
WOW, this looks great 👌 Thanks, Dan!
my mouth is watering at that workbench full of apps.
Thank you for this very well made video! I enjoyed it very much.
Awesome video thanks Dan!!!! First time I'll honestly say I'd happily buy a machine for a dedicated Amiga emulator. There's a handful of awesome games I'd love to play again; "Mechcombat", "Stuntcar Racer", "Hired Guns", "Captive", "Syndicate", "Gods", "Zool" and "Zool 2", plus a few (lot) more and with the Stick of Joy, that Raspberry Pi400 looks like the weapon of choice. Not sure I'll ever see my Vampire V4 I ordered about 18 months ago
Thank you so much for this video, I will be doing this and thank you again.
After watching this video, I had to order one. Thanks a lot. BTW nice video 👍😊
straight to the top of my wish list
Keep it up. Love your vids. 👍👍👍
Dan, you have outdone yourself again. What a great and informative review! I wonder if there is also software within this Pi 400 Amiga like the Warp 1260 or Vampire 4. Do you know if such graphic/performance updates are available for the Pi?
This is fantastic!!! Roll-on Xmas :)
My 400 has been an Amiga since the day I got it. The issues with KB and M compatibility were fixed within days of this video coming out. It plays everything up to and including 68060 software with ease, even emulating it with the benefits of the best FP co-processor
Always love your "Hey friends" intro. Have you got yourself an M1 Mac yet/do you have plans to get one and do a review?
I do, this video was edited on it :) Final Cut runs very nicely on the M1 Mini.
Amiga & pi fan here I am on my third now currently a 4, I gave my 2 away to a family member, when I brought my 3, I have just started a download of the 30GB package it looks amazing.
Nice video - thanks for sharing.
man this is amazing! it is such an amiga really!! still watching but i need one.
Just got my Raspberry Pi 400 after a trip to the Raspberry Pi shop in Cambridge. Pimiga will be installed on it later today :)
hahah i'm trying this right NOW, in the same moment of time :) just installed retropie on my rpi 400 :)
It would have been nice to have a full-sized HDMI port on the back - it's not as if there isn't the room for it
And audio jack.
HDMI converters and USB to 3.5 adapters are very cheap, but yeah would be nice not have converters, or have untidy usb hubs hanging out of the back
@@simretroracer7368 but do thet work on rpi os?
@@angeleocorrodead yes
Such a great video. PImiga is awesome
For a proper '80 feel, it is required that the keyboard feels a bit on the cheap side. Not necessarily Z80, Z81, or ZX Spectrum level of cheap, but it has to be a bit further away from the IBM Model M.
The 1985 Amiga 1000 keyboard was a CherryMX.
Finally someone is making unique single machines again.
As a heads up, the entire TOSEC collection (including CD32) weighs in at just shy of 60GB, so if you're a lunatic like me that has to have everything then a 32GB SD card isn't big enough. :P
Great video, thanks.
Still using my model 3b, this is a good reason to upgrade for me :) I also have a 128gig sd card rammed with Amiga goodness :)
Thanks to my wife xmas20 was this saturday. The Pi400 is a crazy machine. The first day i was just digging in some different distros. Trying out, how the new toy performs. The whole weekend felt like christmas back in the days. YES YES YES
It's a bit of a beast....ideal for your oldschool emulation of 8/16 bit uk computing.
Hi Dan, I have just bought the Amiga Forever essentials pack from the Google Play store, to hopefully run Pimiga on my Pi3b. I noticed that the essentials pack only has roms from 1.2 - 3.1; are these enough to run Pimiga 1.2?
Can’t wait for AROS to be ported over to this. Then it’s the WHILE package. 😃
I also have a raspberry pi addiction. And grew up in the C64 generation. The 400 is a dream come true.
I like to use mine for Dreamcast 😀 Redream runs really well.
Great Video!! Thanks👍💻
I wonder how many pi400’s are going to get opened at Xmas. Mine definitely is. Had to invest in a bigger tv so I can run retro pie to the max!
This is so epic wow I must buy this thing.
And the first game shown is my favourite Turrican!! Had to cycle for an hour to buy my Amiga 600 and bringing back the very big box on the back of my bicycle ;) Now thinking of this or a normal 4 with 8 GB.
oh man my right wrist is still buggered from joystick games on the amiga, pads were such a step up in terms of health and safety
Looking to get one myself... when they are in stock!
When I set up my retropie. I used a usb drive with a few folders set up in win 10 (instructions are on the official retropie website). You then insert the drive into the pi and it creates all the rom folders. You then transfer your roms into the relevant folders and reinsert it into the pi. It will autoput all your roms in the right place. Bit easier than messing around with the command line.
Good tip thanx ;-)
Great video love the amiga would like to know if there's a follow up video in the pipeline
I've been struggling for something to do with my 400. I'll give this a go.
Install Twister OS! You'll not be bored for a while.
I too love my raspberry pi and the Amiga!
I worked on Amigas for bunches of years....I still love what could be done with dpaint and lighwave...I wonder if there is a gpio interface for support of video overlay frame synching ?
It almost feels like the Raspberry PI is the new Amiga-like computers. Can do so much with so little and people love them.
although back in the day i was an Atari ST Owner, this looks like a good way to get into Amiga finally!

@Mark Vegan Hi mark nice to meet you even if only virtually!! Thanks for the info. After having read up on it i certainly think i may treat myself to a whdload system ( pi400 maybe ) or maybe a real Amiga? What did you get ?
@@danwood_uk Hi Dan! Very kind & speedy reply! Thanks it is much appreciated
If you want to simulate an Amiga, there are a few emulators:
www.zophar.net/linux/atarist.html
Always wanted to get an emulator for the Atari ST on the Amiga back in the day, but I don't think one was ever made. Had a MAC emulator, but it was pretty worthless since anything I could run on that worked on my Amiga natively anyhow.
Great vid again Dan! Man I wish I had your knowledge on how to set one up. I'm more of a traditionalist I still like booting up my A500 to play games, trouble is all the games are deteriorated. But I'm starting to be more interested in Raspberry pi the more time goes by.
Keep up the good work 👍
If you'd prefer to stick to the original Amiga hardware, with some modern assistance, have you considered a Gotek floppy drive replacement?
@@MarkTheMorose actually I have, I think is a great solution thanks👍
@@MarkTheMorose love your pic, I had that demo on my Amiga 30 years ago 😁
@@zpepgamer Others had used the Boing ball already, so I had to choose something a little different, but just as iconic.
