Hello,

Is there a way to emulate AMIGA ? Can it be run into a VM of sorts?

Of a certainty. For Windoze there is "Amiga Forever" by Cloanto which is quite versatile and which many of my Amiga user friends swear by. More importantly - not one of them swear at it. Bv)=

https://www.amigaforever.com

They also do a Linux version(s) but neither I nor anyone of my circle of Amiga loyalists has any experience with that/those version(s).

Hello,

Another user replied AMIGA FOREVER... and that is one of the best PACKAGES of software all in one...

For Raspberry Pi theres AMIBIAN which boots straight into an Amiga system, with some setup.

For Linux theres FS-UAE and FS-UAE-LAUNCHER, which is great and can be run INSIDE of whatever Linux system you're already running.

WIN-UAE is the same as above, but for Windows... both are REALLY nice, for emulating Amiga if you don't want a complete Amiga system at boot.

Another neat Raspberry Pi option is PiMiga... its kinda like Amiga Forever, as it comes with a suite of software... you just burn PiMiga to an SDCard and it boots with TONS of software ready to go.

Amiberry is a Raspberry Pi option BUT its barebones and you need to set everything up.

RetroPie, a Raspberry Pi retro game system emulation system, allows you to load, emulate and play Amiga games. SOME programs... but it doesn't [easily] allow for emulation of the entire Amiga workbench... its just for playing games, and aside from THAT it ISN'T an Amiga...

And I'm forgetting one more big THING thats out there. :/ I can't remember it. This is ALMOST a complete list... however, you can find other stand alone emulators for all the different OSes...

Hope that helped a bit.

There is emulators that will run Linux and Winuae for Windows is free. You will have to find the roms for it.
