I'd say if you want a great Amiga to go for tha A500 as well for games. Its what most all the game makers had in mind in the glory days of the Amiga nad made the games for. Sure the FEW AGA games that are good wont work on it, but thats what UAE is for. Most of the AGA games had an ECS version as well. I've never had AGA. I've used a A1000 and then upgraded to an A3000 when they came out. Look on ebay and get a nice used A500. Your going to need a monitor as well unless you can find aTV adapter for it.
