What games to sideload on the A500 Mini? Here's my list:

[Megalomaniac]

Are there any games which still DON'T run well on TheA500Mini? Does it support performance above a base A1200 to a decent quality? Presumably games which need specific early Kickstarts (ie below 1.3, like most early EA games?) are fine?

Whatever information you will find out there is likely correct, there have been no further official updates so whatever didn't work a year ago still won't work today. A1200 games are pretty hit and miss when it comes to performance. Don't expect to be playing Putty Squad on it and be happy for example. Specific non-AGA games as well, First Samurai for example chugs.

Most games requiring Kickstart 1.2 or Kickstart 1.3 I threw at the thing booted up just fine.

Can the mini do PSP games, and run them at the correct speed?

All games can be tweaked in performance by editing the .ol files. Guardian CD32 runs at 030/50 speed.

Outrun 2006 PSP runs OK with some slowdown and less than great sound.
