I've posted it before and I'll post it again.  If I had an Amiga 1200, I would do this:



Indivision AGA + Kipper2K HDMI adapter.  It's not the cheapest solution, but it is darn sure snazzy.  ;)

A stretched screen is totally wrong for 4:3 games for another reason too - moving the joystick or mouse along x-axis results in an unnatural increase in perceived speed...so that things feel wrong as well as look wrong.

In general I hate it, but this effect this is kind of awesome in games like Ruff'n'Tumble, and probably also in Sonic/Zool-style games.  Zoom-zoom!  ;)
