Amiga games for my 6 year old

Hi,

My son has been playing Nintendo DS and 360 this past few years. The games are a quite pricey so he normally only gets new games on Birthday's and Christmas. He's now starting to enjoy sitting at the PC occasional playing flash games and Scooby Doo adventures.

I'm wondering what is the best way to play classic Amiga games these days. I don't mind paying a little for reliable software. Also I'm hoping that my Windows 360 controller will come in use.

PC is running Vista.

thanks for the suggestions. I'm leaning towards Amiga Forever. Will take a look at the website

If you are going down the route of emulators then megadrive and SNES emulators are 10x easier and quicker to use than Amiga. Don't know if those platforms interest you.

Yeah it's not really a case of going down the emu route. More just showing the boy the games I used to play. Not too bothered about introducing him to megadrive and snes games as I never played them myself. Not that I want to deprive him of course, but if he wants to play those consoles he can sort that himself
