If you're purely after playing games on the A500, you could consider getting a Catweasel PCI card for your PC rather than items to expand the A500 itself... The Catweasel will allow easy reading/writing of Amiga floppy disks using a PC...

Certainly, lots of the old 1980s floppies will be beyond the end of their life these days, and having a Catweasel is great for lots of transfer stuff, and easier/quicker than using an RS232 lead.

Just something else to consider!
