Will Amiga Forever work with Windows 8 64-bit?...

dave4shmups · 08 October 2014, 19:04

I'd love to use this on my PC ( I also have an iPad Air, but Amiga Forever is not on there-but it is on Google Play

) but on the Amiga Forever homepage, it just says that it works with Windows 7-there's nothing about Windows 8. I emailed them about a week ago, and I haven't gotten a response yet, so if someone on here knows, that would really help.

Yes It does work.

Yep if a program works in win 7 it usually works in win 8 tio. (also true for drivers)

Awesome! That's great news! What kinds of controllers can you use with Amiga Forever? With WinUAE, I used my old Saitek P220 for the games.

Preferrably a good digital controller, most of the games only need a simple joystick or mouse. If windows can detect your joystick/controller, you're good to go.

Did you accidently reply to the wrong thread?

Some strange spambot... I had to delete one other post with the same IP address that was also totally unrelated to the thread it was posted in.
