I have had a gander and can't find a post on this so ...

I remember playing some classic games on old Omega's, Sensible Soccer, Wings, Road Rage etc which were fantastic fun.

Is there a way of getting these to run on PC's?

I know that it can be done for Commodore games ..

Oversteering round roundabouts and seeing how low you can get the average fuel consumption gauge are two good Omega games.

been there done that ... and blown a power steering pump, and cracked two exhaust manifolds to show for it!

That would be WinUAE smile

You will still need to get your hands on the games though, they are usually disk-rips (note to mods/lawyers/people-with-too-much-free-time: Thats not dodgy, it's an 'image' of the 3'5in floppy amiga disks which are incompatible with pc-disk-drives)

For some older games you can get them for free (google for abandonware)
