Amiga and Sinclair Spectrum Robots available today!
For those fans of the Commodore Amiga and Sinclair Spectrum, both versions are now available on the webstore. I won't be doing a video about either one of these for a few months, so I just wanted to let people know they were available.

Speaking of Amiga. The restoration of the Amiga 1000 is going well. I'm about 75% done filming it. I've also been scripting the documentary and I think there is so much to say about the Amiga 1000 that it may wind up getting its own documentary video. And then a follow up video talking about the rest of the Amiga line that followed.

I have a the spectrum next. Will this play on that. It plays all old spectrum formats
The amiga version looks absolutely amazing. I am definitely going to buy that even if I have to play it on an emulator.
Thank you for sharing such great news! I super look forward to the release of this video or videos, however you see best in releasing it.
That is all great news, thanks for the update! Will the NES version of PETSCII Robots come with a real cartridge? I definitely want one physical copy of the game but if there is no cartridge I'll order the Amiga version instead.
THat's the plan. But we're having serious trouble getting a cartridge to work with the current code. (There's a lot of bank switching and stuff going on in there). Hopefully we'll get it worked out.
Great news about the Amiga video(s). When I saw your C128 video, I realized that I actually knew nothing about about that computer. As an Amiga user for many years in the 90s, I am really looking forward to this, I hope that you tell me many things I did not know :)
It would be great if you can cover AREXX. I did very little programming on the Amiga, but this seems really interesting. https://jonlennartaasenden.wordpress.com/2015/05/14/angular-nothing-new-under-the-sun/
Really looking forward to the Amiga series. I grew up with Macs first, then PCs and always had nearby encounters with Amigas but to this day, no one in my close entourage has owned an Amiga and I've never really tried one. They intrigued me from afar with their superior looking ports and amazing bouncy ball videos far ahead of the competition and I'll enjoy watching what you have to say about them to fill in the gaps that I've had all my life about them.
Sweet! Excited for the restoration video, and the history video to follow!
Wait, there's a Sinclair version? Make sure to feature it in the next PETSCII update, David.
