JS Amiga Emulator

Imagesource: https://scriptedamigaemulator.net/

Amiga emulators exist quite a lot, and considering the years since the hardware platform was released, and the possibilities of modern machines, the emulators today are so good, that they can emulate any of the Amiga machines sufficiently well and accurately.

UAE and friends also come in appropriate binary formats, so you can indulge in gaming and demoing on almost any host platform imaginable – if you want.

But what about an emulator in Javascript for the browser?

Not new, but aged like a good wine is ScriptedAmigaEmulator. The project, which exists for more than 10 years now, is incredibly versatile as far as the emulated platform is concerned. 4 variants of the 68k, OCS, ECS and AGA chipsets, up to 4 virtual floppy drives, as well as full audio and video implementations make the project a fast loading, no-install-alternative.

Either you bring your own ADF files, or you start the available tools, games or demos from the interface. Kickstart ROM's can be added by yourself, alternatively AROS is available.

Great project by Rupert Hausberger to be found on github as naTmeg. Who does not know it yet ... here you go.
