Ok, I'll try to answer seriously. I don't think that emulating windows 98 is feasible on an Amiga for a variety of reasons. The CPU architecture is quite different, as is the graphics technology. The requirements for RE on the PC are a Pentium 90. Even with a graphics card and a fast 68060, the results would be disappointing.

With regards to a Playstation port, its difficult to imagine who would want to play it on amiga. The system requirements would be very high, and so very expensive. Surely gamers would go for the original version, or the remake on the gamecube.
With that in mind, it would be a staggering amount of work for what would be at best a curiosity, undoubtedly an inferior experience to the original, for a tiny audience.
On top of it all, the people involved could look forward to a cease and desist from capcom.

I think these are some of the reasons that no one has attempted an RE port.
