I absolutely loved my Amiga back in the day, and we had a few throughout my childhood home.

What are the things I need to know about to geek around today? I see there's multiple emulators (some free, some not - are they official?), and I assume there's places with old ROMs of the games and software I used to use, like Zool, SWIV, Cannon Fodder, Skidmarks, Speedball 2, Deluxe Paint, etc, etc.

Share your retro wisdom with me!

There's nothing truly official, just a whole bunch of legal nightmares.

If you use Windows, get WinUAE and off you go! Find some .adfs and ROMs and you're set.

If you use Linux, FS-UAE.

If you use Linux on a Raspberry Pi, maybe RetroPie is what you need.

Plenty of options out there! Best of luck.
