Just as the title says...
https://archive.org/details/softwarelibrary_amiga?&sort=-downloads&page=3
On that link address you can find more than 10 000 amiga games, absolutely free. You can download them on your PC or play them in the browser. The emulator for the browser is a bit slow, but it works...

Well that is pretty neat. Any recommendations?
Well, i wanted to try the grand grandfather of Elite Dangerous... Frontier. I can play Pacman, Lemings and what not... IDK, just look around and you will find a big name in the gaming history.
what am i missing on that site there is just this..
Searching brings nothing. Its a dead page.
Is it all considered abandonware now ? There are full MAME ROM sets and SNES, N64, Gamecube etc.. on that site also but they are probably not legal to download. How is the Amiga stuff different or its it just that the probability is much lower on an already low thing ?

From the link:
After a beta-testing period, the emulated Amiga programs at the Archive have been taken down for further development.
Thanks to everyone for testing the Amiga In-Browser emulation package during the beta period, and especially a thank you to the Scripted Amiga Emulator project, as well as db48x and bai, for all the hard work with this experiment.
So my guess is, it will take some time...
when you post something awesome from childhood then its not available

They don't even care...
I tried it a few days ago and not one game or program would launch.
I really wanted to play Desert Strike and draw with DeluxePaint like back in the day.

Commodore Amiga is a weird name,
Commodore was king of games.
Amiga was awesome but not a real success. PC's took over even when Amiga destroyed them in graphics and sound.
I took out a car loan as a kid to buy an Amiga 4000.
