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.
Installation
Note: You must include a KickStart BIOS image file and rename it as kick.rom (version 1.3 is confirmed to work).
Create directory /3ds/uae3DS/ on your 3DS SD card.
Copy kick.rom into this directory.
Copy the .3dsx file into the same directory. Alternatively you can 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.
Apart from this, a DSP-dump is required for sound to work correctly in the CIA version.
