thank you for the information, can't wait for the Q3/2022 !!!
    One I'd like to use in an A4000 and the other I'd like in an A3000 (so I would also give the A3000 AGA + RTG via hdmi)
    Do you think that by that date we will already have some features for 3D (Warp3D 68k emulation)?

Wouldn’t the year 2071 be a faster release schedule for Vampire 5? Just kidding, customers should buy the awesome available Vampire V4+ or other accelerators for Amiga’s based on the Apollo Team’s V4 technology in my opinion.

  Yes exactly.
  Our goal is to offer the same platform for _ALL_ Amigas.
  Giving you the same performance and features on all systems.
  We plan for Q3/2022
 

Hi Gunnar, in last statement of Apollo Team the A3000 is disappeared from supported system of Kraken, which seems it will only be for A4000.
Something changes in your plan or is it only a forgetfulness?

why not answer nick and also let others know the road map for A3000/A4000

start to find it familiar with Hyperion when many questions here is never answered.

if you dont know. just let them know that instead of ignoring before losing people's interest.

my 2 cent of the day

(btw i love what you do otherwise in the forum explaining things and shop and producs)

As written here before and also written in our newsletter, the next coming to market is the MANTICORE for the A600.

The Manticore will be presented this year on A37 Amiga event.

The Kraken will come afterwards.

I’m not sure how many A600 machines Commodore sold but surely they sold more A3000 & A4000 then the Amiga 600 I would guess. A600 had a limited lifespan and was very unexplainable at the time.

I AGREE....
Also, unexpandable.

This is all true.
On the plus side the A600 is very slim and cute - and if you add V4 power to it then you have a super fast Amiga in a cute and very small case. Maybe it comes close from size to something like an Amiga Laptop. Some people have lot of space but for some its an advantage to have a slim computer ... that the wife maybe even tolerates more than an 4000T monsters case.

  but I don't care about the Vampire4 for A600 ...... I asked you for A4000 and A3000 and you delete my post and you start talking about the A600 ... what's the point of this behavior?
  Then maybe you mind if I buy you three Vampire 4 for A4000 and A3000 ...?
  Sorry but I didn't like what you did at all.
  Furthermore, my question is perfectly pertinent, considering that we are in a few days in the fourth quarter of 2022 ... at least I expect from you a nice discount in the purchase of the Vampire 4 for A4000 and A3000 given your behavior towards me, as well as an apology for what you did.

but he did answer you.  first Manticore will be released very soon, then kraken (although he didn't say date on release, but guessing before end of the year)

you are right, sorry, my mistake
Returning instead to the V4 card for A4000 and A3000 since it has been a long time and we are waiting for it, can you tell us quite precisely when you think it might be available? start, middle, end 2023? I have no urgency but I would like to have your indication so that I can better organize myself, thanks
Then I need to speak to you personally for personal information, what can I do?
