Just to reitterate what so many people have already posted, my main reasons are:
ADF files: I finally loaded WHDload onto one of my Amigas last month and I'm in the process of reinstalling my original games. It's disappointing to discover just how many of them no longer work due to age. Unfortunately, you can't even use most ADFs with WHDload because they're cracked. I'm looking forward to an "Amiga" I can use for games which uses reliable ADF images and not having to dig out that old Zool code wheel to unlock the game.
VGA output: Perfect for connecting to my big screen TV for better picture quality.
PS2 mice: My Amiga mice are on their last legs and it will be great to be able to find a replacement by simply waling into Walmart.
PS2 Keybioards: Thankfully my Amiga keyboards have developed a fault, but if they do fail the cost and time to obtain a replacement is a pain in the butt.
Why not WinUAE? Surely I could do this with WinUAE? I've tried, but to use real "atari" type digital joysticks means extra hardware and the "feel" is just not right.
