Amiga Emulators

Some discussion.

I create and maintain this website as I like Forth and the Amiga. I don't get any free stuff. I don't get any residuals or any other financial benefit. I do it out of interest as a hobby. That said...

I personally have paid, used and upgraded AmigaForever for over 10 years. It comes complete with the Amiga ROM's, v. 0.7, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 2.04, 2.05 (Workbench 2.1 uses the 2.0x ROMs), 3.1 and 3.X and pre-installed OS/Workbench (ADF files) v. 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 2.1 and 3.1 images. So pick your workbench and off you go. I have the plus version which, currently, 5th May 2023, is $29.95. Pretty much everything else needs Amiga ROM's. If you have an Amiga, you can find copy the ROM/s.

The last few years, I have also added amikit. It doesn't come with Amiga ROM's but pulls them from my AmigaForever. It is currently 5th May 2023, 29.95 Euro.
