uae3DS is an emulator for the Amiga 500, which is a personal computer in the Amiga computer family marketed by Commodore in the 1980s and 1990s.

Amiga 500, also know as A500, is the first low-end version of the Amiga home computer. It contains the same Motorola 68000 as the Amiga 1000, as well as the same graphics and sound coprocessors, but is in a smaller case similar to that of the Commodore 128. The Amiga 500 was sold in the same retail outlets as the Commodore 64, as opposed to the computer store-only Amiga 1000. It proved to be Commodore's best-selling model, particularly in Europe. It was followed by a revised version of the computer, the Amiga 500 Plus, and the 500 series was discontinued in 1992.

This is a port of the uae4all Amiga 500 emulator to 3DS, based on UAE v0.8.22.

Compatibility List

Many Amiga games are well playable - a compatibility list (incomplete) can be found here.

Compatibility=

The emulator runs pretty well on both O3DS and N3DS, however the extra speed on N3DS makes it even more enjoyable.

Installation

Note: You must include a KickStart BIOS image file and rename it as kick.rom (version 1.3 is confirmed working).

Create directory /3ds/uae3DS/ on your 3DS SD card.

Copy kick.rom into this directory.

Copy the .3dsx file into the same directory. Or install the .cia file with a title manager.

Copy any Amiga disk images that you might have (.adf, .adz) to a directory of your choice on your SD card.
