Floppy Emulator OR WHDLoad for Games on A1200

January 22, 2016 / admin / Amiga

Hi

Ive been out of the scene for oh about 25 years.. 🙂

But always kept coming back here for gossip and have been following FPGA Arcade for a few years.

I have HEAPS of original Amiga’s which I purchased last year and am slowly selling, however I plan on keeping one.

It will be an A1200 with 030 accelerator with some extra ram. I have a brand new keyboard (amikit) and have installed a CF hard drive.

I also backed the new case thing on KickStarter, so the Amiga will soon have a brand new case. The current one is quite good but does have a few broken clips.

I also have 3.1 roms.

Anyway, my question is this..

I want to setup the amiga in the house to play the odd retro game with my kids.. Think Lemmings etc.

Im trying to decide if I should go for emulated floppy via Gotek / the HxC OR if I should be getting WHDLoad.

I never used WHDLoad before, but it does sound like a good idea.

I could obviously go for both, to have the best flexability, but can anyone tell me just how good/ easy/ fast WHDLoad makes things?

Money is no option, as I already have the gear and wouldnt mind paying for WHDLoad if its worth it over using emulated floppy.

P.S I would rather play 100% originals rather than cracked versions – Not that it probably matters.
