Who Owns The Rights To The Amiga?

GoldenHeart · 05 April 2009, 16:37

I've come up with a great idea to bring the Amiga back. Is there anyone i can contact to get the ball rolling?

I think an Amiga Set Top Box would thrash the opposition(Playstation 3, Wii, X-Box). :-)

If it's not a joke you should get in contact with Amiga Inc (http://www.amiga.com/)

Could be a bargain to get the rights right now

www.amiga.com might be the people to contact. Although they seem more interested in miaking shitty pocketpc apps these days.

This was mooted years ago, and nothing ever happened.

I suspect a 'joke' post though.

Ho ho, 'hilarious'!

"Thank God" Jay Miner isnt alive to see it.

Yeah right. Where is the 30,000,000+ investment money to develop one?

Most of the kids today never heard of Amiga so the brand name isnt worth very much.

The plot thickens...

Just think how revolutionary for the user, being able to play Youtube Videos on a HDTV.

Plus for the developer it is an ideal situation where the user says for the apps/games/software using their mobile phone. Just like Apples App Store.

Prices: £111, £222, £333

What, exactly, are you proposing here?

If it doesnt have a kickstart rom or a motorola procesor then its not an AMIGA

AndreasM owns the rights to the Amiga. You should ask him for a license

Gaula92 · 06 April 2009, 17:18

I'd rather expect the second coming of Christ than hoping for anything usable/inteligible from this thread

Predabot · 06 April 2009, 17:43

HAH!

Dunno' if I think this is a very funny joke... :\ Feels kind of tired and unoriginal.

Sensi · 06 April 2009, 17:44

I am sure I know this one, maybe from here, maybe from lemon.
