is there a device for Amiga like Sdrive Nuxx on A8?

Have had several amiga's cd32 etc always such a pain with floppies. SDrive Nuxx simplified my Atari 8bit and made it much more enjoyable to just sit down and play a few games. Maybe an all in one amiga (small with SD reader)?

Just curious, would like to have a bunch of arcade shooters for the Amiga without all the hassles.

I believe this one fits the bill. http://hxc2001.free.fr/floppy_drive_emulator/

It supports many different computers / keyboards / samplers / CNC machines.

Your best bet would likely be check out the HxC Floppy Emulator. lotharek sells assembled units on ebay. eBay Auction -- Item Number: 170691615940

 

Though an Amiga properly fitted out for WHDload makes gaming very pleasant.

HxC is great! I use one with my Miggy all the time, and it plays just about everything you can throw at it.

Sound great! I am on it! Thanks everyone for good advise!

Looks like it connects to St/Amiga and several others, did not see how to physically connect to amiga in the auction (i.e. cable)also I am assuming straight load, no workbench? as I recall most arcade type games just booted from floppy.

would like to find an a600,some small footprint amiga.

It hooks to the floppy cable on the ST/Amiga, so it just replaces the floppy.

Yep, most disks (and their images) boot straight into the game. No WB needed.

Don't forget the cased one - see his other items or go to his website.

 

I just bought 2 of these from him:

Well we sold many of them in the day and I have owned several. Just want it for a game machine without having to deal with the o/s. Never seemed to work out and always sold them. Mostly I am bored. This looks like a great solution and amiga shooters are good! besides it's an atari sort of.
