In their own words
UAE4ALL2 HD Vita
UAE4ALL2 HD Vita is a free, open-source PlayStation Vita build of an Amiga emulator based on UAE4ALL2. It emulates OCS, ECS and AGA chipsets with 68000 and 68020 CPU modes, covering Amiga models from A1000 through A4000, CD32 and CDTV. Supported media include ADF, ADZ, DMS, IPF, ZIP, LHA, LZH and HDF files, plus CD32 CHD, ISO, BIN, CUE and M3U images. WHDLoad can extract archives, configure an A1200 profile and launch games. An HDF Manager creates FFS images from 50 MB to 8192 MB, with four slots; a single Amiga partition remains limited to 4 GB. The app offers save states, a game library with up to eight roots, shaders, aspect scaling, touch and analog mouse controls, a virtual keyboard and autofire. FTP exposes Vita partitions on port 1337 and is unencrypted. Users must supply legally obtained Kickstart ROMs and disk images. UAEGFX/Picasso96 is not enabled.
UAE4ALL2 Mod
UAE4ALL2 Mod is an Amiga emulator for PlayStation Vita and Nintendo Switch, with support for Amiga 500 and Amiga 1200 systems. It reads ADF, ADZ, HDF, and ZIP disk images, with ZIP available only for reading. The project says most Amiga games run at full speed with zero frameskip. Controls include six mappable sets, analog mouse control, and a virtual keyboard whose position and transparency can be adjusted. The emulator can mount up to four HDF files at once; maximum file sizes are below 2 GB on Vita and below 4 GB on Switch. Savestates support HDF, import and export, thumbnail previews, and an automatic slot. It also supports shaders, with automatic full 1080p in Switch docked mode. Multiplayer supports up to four paired controllers on Vita TV and up to eight on Switch. Users must provide Amiga Kickstart ROM files; the installation instructions specify kick13.rom and kick31.rom. Some games have known issues, including missing graphics in Banshee AGA and unsupported cycle-exact emulation needed for Nebulus 2. UAE4ALL2 Mod is free and GPL-2.0 licensed.
