My grey matter is talking about a grey area here, but provided you bought the original game you could embark on employing Amiga Forever, or WinUAE (using the same Kickstart version as the hardware you own), and obtaining the .ADFs of your collection and emulate.

I know this is not ideal, but it appears the easiest way to play games / use software for the Amiga without indulging in rare hardware, or getting an A1200 and using the PCMCIA slot.

There are methods of getting an ADF and placing it on a PC formatted floppy so that an Amiga can read it, but I do not know the ins and outs, however, you could do a lot worse than asking these guys:

4 CC wins, and proud of my messy dive!
