They wouldn't need the campaign at all if they hadn't thrown out all their money for Nascar marketing. I wonder how much that costs.

Here's my advice: give up, we don't need your scam.

At least they are honest - they want a part of big money pie...
Create emulator for 2 games you have license for... with possible extension with more games (for more money) from idiots that would support emulator like this... But guess what, playing those amiga games on iPad/tablet/phone is not really fun due to controller. Not to mention that Atari TOS distribution prohibit monetary gains... and as no question about kickstart, I side with many who think that Amiga Inc. is behind this scam. So yes, scam is a scam... |

BILL MCEWEN? That's a name I thought was buried and I would never read again. GO AWAY! Why can't these people let the Amiga die peacefully so we can take over and do what we want with it? |

Looks like this effort won't reach its funding goal.

It's like the script and imagery accidentally reveal their only motivation. Dollar images everywhere. At the part where they talk about finishing the emulator, the guy is constructing a $ statue. They borrow a ton of copyrighted images and box scans, the narrator is completely out of place, her tone is messed up and she's talking about the 20B$ market they would like to be a part of. Is that an incentive? Conclusion: This has to be a joke. Or it's an exceptionally blatant scam attempt. 100K$ for repackaging an emulator and games. |

These people are so greedy they do not even realize they are exposing their greed for all to see: "make us rich, please, please". This is beyond pitiful. It is a shame of interstellar proportion that these idiots got their hands on the Amiga rights. |
