The official emulation/rom thread

[UKnowWhatItIs: welcome to my traps....game over]

Since every once in a while members of this forum ask where they can download emulators/roms & seem to have little knowledge about it I thought I might make this thread to provide everyone here with emulators (best & most popular), roms, info & settings needed to play your favorite old-school games.I'm gonna update this thread daily so any suggestions, requests or questions should be posted in this thread.Remember some settings might not work, everything depends on what kind of computer you have.Hopefully this will get a sticky.First up is probably my favorite console of all time - the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.

Good idea for a thread and thank you for Yoshi's Island, been looking for that for a while to play on the PSP.

Some guys have started to get close to Sega Model 2 (Daytona, Sega Rally, Virtua Cop, etc) emulation through a program called Nebula. Once they iron out the tweaks that will be awesome, especially if they can get some sort of four player net Daytona racing going on.

^No problem homie.Those Sega games rock, especially Daytona USA.Like you said, that's just gonna be awesome.

Does that also include the Star Wars Trilogy arcade game from 1998?

That was a Model 3 Step 2.1 game. I don't think they have reached the point where they are able to emulate that system.

[ToOoOoN!!!]

props for the thread! snes was the shit back then,so many memories!!! mario rpg is a fucking classic!!!
now we need a DREAMCAST emulator,i want STREET FIGHTER 3 THIRD STRIKE so bad lol

Great thread, made me download a snes emu with like 500+ games. I´m playing Super Mario World right now ( I never had that for my SNES - can you believe that?) Maybe some of us can hook up and play a snes game over the net, some of those emus got a built in multiplayer feature so that you can play multiplayer games over the net. Never tried it but if it works that would kick ass. Dubcc bomberman/SF tournament


Props for all the rom lovers in here

An addition to the emulation list would be nullDC. you can play DC games on PC with ease 

[daWappla]

^

That would be the shit. You´re sure that there are working DC emulators?

I justed named the emulator. It's not perfect yet but it works alot better than Chankast.




Oh yeah, MAME emulators kick major fucking ass. I love playing old games on my modded Xbox but what will really take the cake would be MAME on 360

A very useful site for emulation on consoles, latest news and emulator program downloads. Especially good for PSP stuff.

If anyone wants, I can upload my Mame emulator with every Metal Slug game. Let me know.
