The 68010 is a fully compatible drop-in replacement for the 68000, with a few extra features and slightly better performance.
In case you always wondered how much of a speed gain the 68010 would be over the 68000 here are the hard facts as given by classic Amiga benchmarking tool SysInfo:
Outlining my programming activities in the previous blog post I also mentioned that I had been involved with the Amiga Developer project for quite some time. After the post went live a few people asked me whether it meant that I would work less on the project now that I develop my own software. The answer is no, not really.
Welcome to my first blog post for 2021! Today I am looking at a number of home-brew Intellivision games produced from 2014 to 2020. I ordered a lot of them with the purchase last year of an Intellivision II system, and most of them arrived just before Christmas.
Most of our readers here at AmigaGuru’s Gamer blog knows about my Giana addiction by now I guess, to some of you this game is just a Super Mario Brothers clone but to me, it is a helluva lot more than that for sure. The guy(s) at retrophase.co.uk knew about this and decided to surprise […]
Coded by Dave Jones and published by Psygnosis in 1991, Lemmings is one of those games that entered the Hall of Fame of videogames and that need no presentation. Amiga Computing magazine awarded it a superb score of 97%, claiming that: Lemming is absolutely brilliant. Psygnosis have managed to produce a game that is not […]
The MorphOS news keeps rolling lately. Version 3.15 is now ready for download and includes a lot of stability and security updates.

Also, v3.16 of the software dev kit is out and will need the 3.15 version to be installed to use.
Go MorphOS!
Probably just a fan made teaser, but still…
While I’m still planning to finish my review of the latest MorphOS and Wayfarer in another post, I did stumble upon the news that the newest and most modern Amiga-related browser, Wayfarer, has now added support for streaming audio playback in the latest v1.9, and on top of that, a new v1.10 was just released:
When they first published this new browser, the author mentioned that he hadn’t planned to have multimedia playback. Maybe this is an indication that video is coming soon?
I’ve been away from blogging about Amiga-related news but I’ve been watching (well, mostly). I thought I’d come back by giving the latest MorphOS 3.14 a whirl, along with the latest, matching Chrysalis pack and the latest and greatest Qemu on my updated laptop.
Since I’ve sold all my PowerMacs, I’ll need something to run it on. The latest Qemu releases have been supporting Amiga OS4.1 FE for Sam460 (something I hope to do in the future, to test against WinUAE with the somewhat limited OS 4.1FE Classic) and MorphOS on PowerMac.
So, I headed off to Qemu-land
For Xmas this year my wife was kind enough to buy me a Nintendo Game & Watch specially released in 2020 by Nintendo to celebrate the 35th Anniversary of Mario!
Stay healthy, and have a peaceful time.
Overnight saw an unexpected update to AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition Update 1 to a new Update 2 version!
