I've heard it can be bought at certain select Newsagents here in Australia. I've call around quite a bit, I'd really like to know where because as far as I'm concerned it's all a Myth?

My Retrogamers always come in paper envelopes and damaged, especially when it rains. The Wipeout issue was like a dog had got hold of it and then the replacement isn't the subscriber cover.

Sega Mania Magazine use a thin sleeve and that seems to be good.

Sorry blade002 - thanks for looking. Unfortunately we've only been able to get very vague information out of our distributors at present (which I know doesn't help at all). We only have the specifics for stores inside the UK, but we're pushing with our contacts to find out more, because we haven't seen any evidence of copies on sale outside the UK yet either. Please bear with us - we're frustrated too!

My Amiga Addict experience

Hi ...
following the topic, i can say that have all the Amiga Addict issues and i'm waiting for issue 12 now. I've received all of them directly at my door and i live in Santiago, Chile. Of course a months later as you guys in the UK but all of them but the binder in perfect shape.
I'm totally satisfied with the magazine and finally i subscribed. I still can remember the 90s when i received CU Amiga and i could wait to know when it will arrived. Of course now everything works faster and the world feels smaller for almost everything.

I still look for my new Amiga Addict magazine everyday when i guess it should arrive.
Best Regards

Rodrigo

Thanks for your kind comments Rodrigo, and thanks for subscribing. It's very strange for us to think of our little magazine in people's houses thousands of miles away across the globe!

It's that time again - Issue 13 of Amiga Addict is now on sale. This issue we get deep down in the tech with a complete feature on accelerators for your A1200, old and new. We also spend some time with modern Amiga devs around the community to see how their amazing projects are going. h0ffman provides us with this issue's exclusive coverdisk, as well as being responsible for the much-lauded return of our Demoscene section. We talk to CU Amiga legend Tony Horgan about his days on the magazine, while Ravi looks at MorphOS and we sum up both the AmiGameJam and the Amiga Art Contest. And as always, much, much more besides in our 60 glossy A4 pages!

You can order a copy on our site https://www.addict.media from today, or in stores from 30th June.

And remember - for those of you that took out a 12 issue subscription from Issue 1 - it's now time to renew your subscription at the Amiga Addict store!

Issue 14 of Amiga Addict is now on sale for all lovers of good printed media. This issue we focus in on Core Design, a prolific producer of Amiga games back in the day, speaking to many of the people around at the time. We look at brand new game Duckstroma and newly unearthed 90s game Riamel: Black Prophecy. And with a Public Domain feature by Matthew Smith and a full on C programming tutorial to sink your teeth into, we think it's a great read!

Available as always from our site, or in stores from 11th August.

It's brilliant to see some Amiga magazines in WHSmiths these days. Really takes me back to my childhood.

Somehow it is already our 15th issue, now on sale at https://addict.media. This issue I've been speaking to alumni from the UK's foremost Amiga productivity software purveyor, Digita International. Black Dawn Technomage gets a full review and we have a whole bunch of game previews from CyberPunks 2 to Scourge of the Underkind and Guardian - The Legend of Flaming Sword. Top that off with a deep dive into Vista Pro animation and a good chat about Amiga assembly, and I think there's a little something for everyone.

In stores from 22nd September, or get it right now directly from us!

Loved Issue 14!! The C Tutorial was a fantastic throwback to the days of type-ins and I read each line like it was 1983!!

I'm in Peterborough on the 22nd, so will hit WHSmith to see if it's there. If not, my local WHSmith will have a copy.

Keep 'em coming!!

Thanx for the info, ordered. I also ordered one of your nice metal water bottles. Please keep adding more merch for Amiga fans to buy if possible.

Latest issue turned up Friday for me. Thanks, it’s always a good read and it’s great to have an Amiga mag back on the shelves again.

I liked the feature on Digita, and the matching coverdisk sticker. Got me wanting to play around with Wordworth again. Had the Wordworth 6 Office CD.
I’ve also got a boxed copy of Home Accounts 2 somewhere, should dig that out too.

You should! I had a great time loading up Wordworth again

Well, WHSmith in Peterborough didn't have one in stock, unless they just hadn't got to putting them out when I went in about lunchtime...

I dropped into my local WHSmith and that didn't have one either...

Of course, they could both have sold out
