Some would say emulation..
But, I say, get a stock A500 for playing games, and get a A1200/A3000/A4000 with PCI bus, 68060 and PCI video card for everything else.
First time I heard an Atari user say the Amiga is better! I still remember one Atari user telling me his Atari ST was better than my A500 because the Atari had a BLITTER chip!
