Two-part YouTube documentary about the history of the Amiga.


Nostalgia Nerd: The Amiga Story
-------------------------------
What goes up, must come down... Welcome to the story of the
Commodore Amiga. This is part 1 of a 2 part documentary
exploring the history and story of the mighty Amiga from
its conception through to its buyout by Commodore. This
episode deals with the "up" part of the story, and takes
place during the 1980s. It charts the conception of the
Lorraine machine (that would become the first Commodore
Amiga), the early years and team spent working on the
machine, the buyout of Atari followed by Commodore, the
launch of the original Commodore Amiga machine (later
renamed the Amiga 1000) and the subsequent Amiga 2000 and
Amiga 500 machines which conclude before 1989 is out.

In the second part, we'll look at the 1990s, when the Amiga
peaked and then fell to its regrettable demise.

part of it's story. This episode is based heavily in the
1990s. We start out with the Amiga 500 and the UK Batman

staff changes, The Commodore CDTV, Amiga 500+, Amiga 600,
Amiga CD32, Amiga 1200, Amiga 4000, Amiga 3000 and the later

which influenced its fall from grace.
