Platform: Commodore Amiga

AMIGA was the followup to the very popular C64.

Amiga was renowned for their excellent multimedia / graphics / sound capabilites compared to contemporary IBM-PCs or Macintosh computers. Until the dawn of the VGA era in DOS, most games ported to Amiga looked better than their DOS counterparts.

Amiga was a floppy-disk machine in its early incarnations, but it became hard drive based. Most floppies come in "adf" format, but a great deal of Amiga software has been converted to "lha" with the WHD project, which converts disk-based programs/games to hard drive based ones that boot up easily and don't require disk swapping.

Some ADF images are software that expects to be installed to a hard drive. I do not have a hard drive setup to accomodate it, so the software I have successfully emulated is either run-off-of-floppy software from earlier Amiga generations, or lha/WHD customized programs.

Retroarch's pUAE core has worked well so far. I have not tried FS-UAE, Amiberry, Clock Signal, standalone pUAE, or EUAE.
