An 'emotional' #Twitch stream tonight from 8pm GMT - the final part of my playthrough of all the #Amiga Power mag coverdisks. Four commercial games to finish - let's drive some fast cars, break off for a relaxing cricket match and then get on our motorbike for another race (but not before, er, turning into a blue blob and jumping on platforms in outer space).

Join me over at https://twitch.tv/NAG_Graham why don't you? (Rhetorical question.)

I actually forgot to post here about last week's #Norwich #Amiga Group meet which was really busy and a lot of fun - I'll post some more pics at a later date.

For now though here's a highlight - one of our members created their own box for their A1200! How cool is this? And far sturdier than any cardbox box it would have originally shipped in.

This is a naff photo of the inside, where there's space for the Amiga itself. an ArcadeR joystick and some other things (presumably a PSU) which are not in there at this moment. All customised specifically to safely house the computer and peripherals. Very nice indeed.

New #Amiga games eh? We seem to get some really exciting ones these days... no less so than the brand new Final Fight Enhanced! And how about some fun puzzling in Spheroid too?

All streaming live on #Twitch from 8pm GMT over at https://twitch.tv/NAG_Graham - all from my lovely A1200. Do pop over to say hello!

Hello! At 8pm GMT, I'll be streaming on #Twitch playing through some of the final #Amiga Power magazine coverdisks (just seven left). Why not come and join us to see what we're faced with tonight and also join the friendly and relaxed community we have over there?

Before Christmas I received my shiny new #SpectrumNext and I am really looking forward to streaming it this week over on #Twitch. We'll look at the software produced for it, and other things it can do too (including classic #ZXSpectrum games) over the course of Monday and Thursday night's streams at 8pm GMT over at https://twitch.tv/NAG_Graham - so come over and say hello!

I was due to mark my third #Twitch anniversary tonight with a mighty #Amiga request stream, but unfortunately last night I appear to have come down with what could be described as flu-like symptoms and it isn't pleasant. And sadly it is not conducive to a 4-5 hour stream, staring at a screen & talking constantly.

I've been lucky to have never missed a stream due to illness and it's frustrating it's happened tonight of all nights but I need to be sensible. I'll be back Tuesday!

My first #Twitch stream of 2024 is the second instalment of my look back at the #Amiga game releases of 2023. Many delights will be contained within but I may also have a new version of @nivrig's Rogue Declan to try out...

Come and have a look at https://twitch.tv/NAG_Graham from 8pm GMT - all welcome to join our friendly and laid-back stream and community.

Hello! I have been very quiet on here in recent times - apologies, it's hard to keep on top of everything. I'll try harder to do so...

#HappyNewYear to everyone, #Amiga, #RetroGaming & #RetroComputing fans included, from #Norwich #Amiga Group! I'm hoping next year will be a bigger & better one for us, and for you all.

Have a great NYE and 2024! In the meantime, do give us a look over at #Twitch - https://twitch.tv/NAG_Graham - for Amiga and other retro streaming in the new year!

Apologies for being quiet on here for a while - meet pics to follow over the weekend 🙂 so many platforms, so little time!

Anyway, the next #Norwich #Amiga Group meet is on Thursday 7th December at Albion Games Cafe. As always it's free entry and all welcome to attend! Lots of Amigas to check out, people to meet and possibly even a festive high-score competition...

Now starting to feel more human after yesterday's 15-hour #Twitch stream, playing mostly really terrible #Amiga games to raise money for Safe In Our World.

A huge thanks to all those who donated, watched, shared, supported etc - we've currently raised a huge £543.75 which is amazing work from everyone. It was incredible fun and really worthwhile thanks to you all.

Donation page is still open if you fancy: https://tiltify.com/@nag-graham/the-15-hour-terrible-amiga-games-marathon

Thank you!

COMING UP FROM 10am GMT: Charity stream time on #Twitch, raising money for Safe In Our World. 15 hours of truly (mostly) terrible #Amiga games on my A600. For every £5 you donate, you can pick a game for me to 'enjoy' for 15 minutes. Watch me really suffer but it's all for a good cause.

Tomorrow is my birthday so TONIGHT at 8pm GMT I'll be on #Twitch at https://twitch.tv/NAG_Graham celebrating this with an #Amiga request stream. Not only will I be streaming from my trusty A1200 all the channel point reedems (including requests) will have their prices halved for one night only. Hopefully more people can inflict their choice of game on me for everyone to watch me suffer with...

See you there!

I've got yet more brand new #Amiga games to stream on #Twitch at https://twitch.tv/NAG_Graham from 8pm GMT.

The latest version of Castlevania AGA from Dante, plus Hop To The Top: Bunny's Revenge by Rob Smith, amongst several others, are on the agenda for this evening.

Come and join us to see what brilliant things Amiga devs are currently up to! (And maybe play some of these at our next meet too...)

Streaming new #Amiga games on #Twitch tonight including this lovely copy of Reshoot Proxima 3 which arrived here last week. A wonderful vertically-scrolling shooter.

PLUS we've got @nivrig 's Rogue Declan, plus a few more besides - all live from my lovely A1200.

Join me and my rather lively viewers over at https://twitch.tv/NAG_Graham from 8pm BST!

After a couple of weeks off I am BACK on #Twitch tonight and we're partying like it's 1991 with a massive selection of #Amiga games. What a big year for the machine it was - there's so much to check out so it will take us quite some time.

Come join us over at https://twitch.tv/NAG_Graham, say hi and enjoy the show - looking forward to catching up with everyone!

Hi folks! A quick plug from me (sorry if you're sick of stuff like this) - but although I'm on a short #Twitch break I'm really close to 1000 followers, and I have pledged a 15-hour charity stream if I hit that milestone. So if you fancy watching me suffer really terrible #Amiga games for 15 whole hours soon(ish), I'd really appreciate a follow over at https://twitch.tv/NAG_Graham - thank you! And a huge thanks for all the support I get!

#RetroGaming #RetroComputing #CommodoreAmiga

My current stats on Twitchtracker. Just outside the top 1% of Twitch channels. That's pretty wild - huge thanks to all for their support!

Tonight at 8pm BST we belatedly celebrate the #Amiga CD32's 30th anniversary by dusting mine off and streaming a variety of games (old and new) on it over on #Twitch. It had a brief and troubled existence but let's show it some love for once eh? Join me at https://twitch.tv/NAG_Graham to warmly reminisce (or mock, I won't judge).
