Edit: I paid $35 for my C64 case....the A1200 one starts at €79. I think ill have to pass on this one. Thats ~3 times more than the c64 one!


Don't forget it's bigger and has more enhancements for modifications such as the HxC -> CF adapter, so it isn't just a single mold

Dear god's that's expensive! Ridiculously so.

I think for now, I'm gonna stick to WINUAE all options seem to be either very expensive or lacking.

The Kickstarter for the new case failed (only gaining €77k out of €125k desired) however, they're going to relaunch the campaign soon as they've just gotten official licensing permission, so the new cases/shells will be legally stamped as "Amiga" - making them 100% official Smile

So to kick off a rather impressive news announcement from Philippe Lang, from the failed Kickstarter 'New A1200 Computer Housing Project'. It is back on Kickstarter with a new name 'New AMIGA 1200 Cases' and let me tell you, unlike before this has every chance of being a success.

A Kickstarter Success!!



Quote:
Fantastic news today as Philippe Lang's ' New AMIGA 1200 Cases ' is a Kickstarter success! That's right Amiga fans, raising €128,873 pledged of a €125,000 goal and still 3 days to go, many of us will finally be able to get our hands on a super resistive, Anti-UV plastic moulded Amiga case in our choice of colours, with special compatibility such as A1200 Reloaded / Raspberry Pi / MiST, HxC and more!

Goddamn that was close, eh? 3 days to go and they finally manage to succeed! That's awesome... especially in light of the recent "DRAMA!" with that other dude suddenly trying to scupper the KS by claiming to be setting up a campaign for much cheaper, but not "licensed" cases grinhurt
