Problem is that would have been a cool when PCs were not fast enough to emulate the amiga. Nowadays it would not add anything you can't already have with winuae. Same would apply to a playstation one emulator on a card, you can already do that in software, why do you need a PCI card also?


There are still advantages to hardware solutions. Having the custon chips in silicon means less for the host processor to do, which in turn means faster 68k emulation.

Plus, the best emulation programmers alive will never get a VGA card to pump out a 15kHz PAL signal. The MiniMig also has real 9 pin joystick/mouse ports. The only way to use Amiga joysticks with UAE is via a Catweasel card. Imagine both products combined into one.
