It's not really the hardware that counts, it's the games companies. Games these days can cost literally millions of dollars to make and a team of dozens of coders, artists, etc - well out of the power of Amiga coders. So to get games of the same quality as other platforms, we'd have to have them ported. We couldn't afford ports of the most successful games, so we'd have to put up with less sucessful ones. So the other platforms would get these better games faster for only a fraction of the hardware price. This cannot continue, or the Amiga has no chance.
I don't want to sound pessimistic, but this is a huge problem. Games companies must somehow be lured back to the Amiga to release games natively instead of ports by 3rd parties years later. To do that will require a bigger user base and some clever commercial maneouvring by a company dedicated only to that cause - and we have, for better or for worse, AInc to do that. Now all we have to do is try to stop the pro-x86 and anti-AInc ppl undermining everything we do so we are big enough and look like a serious enough platform to develop for.
The more people decide that the A1 route is not for them, the less chance we have of that happening. That's really the sad part.
