It allowed you to plug in multiple carts using the ST's single cartridge port.

Yes if you want native screens. Going forward there can/will be a cheap shifter adapter -> MIPI using a $9 devkit. The development is being / has been done for 12-bit RGB for the Amiga by the PiStorm developer. This adapter plugs into the PiStorm MIPI connector and allows for Native<->GFX card swit...

Alright, thanks for all the information gang, much appreciated.

Does the Pi4 GPIO header cable need to be male -> female?

I gather that the 2gig version of the Pi4 is okay.

Thanks...

Switching gears here a bit, since the PiSTorm has HDMI output, is there any reason
to have an RGB2HDMI mod or to consider doing one?

I'm sure the answer is obvious here but I wanted to make sure. Thanks.

The PiStorm (Amiga A500 Rev B) sits in a 64 pin IC socket. If you have an ST, then the CPU will need removing to install a socket. No other mods are required. But of course you won't be able to sit the keyboard above it. Someone posted pictures of a Stacy somewhere (don't remember if it was on this...

The Atari-PiStorm project has been developed to use Pi4's. However, it has been found that reasonable performance is available using a Pi3A+. Pi Zero 2W, and Pi3B's also work, but they are slow. The biggest problem facing us at the moment is how the hell to install the hardware. ST's are the bigges...

Would this Pi version be acceptable?

Thanks!

Totally agree with this! I had thought that was what I communicated in the video (my channel) that with Midi the Atari ST sound / music was best. If you don't have the midi output that the Amiga is the best base config option because with the ST you can't have both sound and music without midi (unl...
