    Does anyone here play on emulators? I don't have any of the old school game consoles, so I love my EMU's.. right now I'm totally into NES and Super Mario Brothers 3.

    Anyone else use them? Or am I on my own with this one?

    Haha! I use emulators when I'm bored. The ones I use are Nesticle (NES) and SNEX (SNES), although there's a great program called Console Classix that has emulation for all the earlier consoles (NES, SNES, Genesis, etc.). Favorite game? Monopoly old school NES edition! :lol:

    Lol, awesome. I use Nestopia. And for some reason, I cannot find my saved files after moving the location of the folder.

    Monoply, old school NES edition sounds like it's a fun one to play.

    I use Snes9x (even though I prefer Zsnes because it is not compatible with mac), VBA, and Nestopia. :grin: Old school video games make up a large part of my interests. Oh the glorious imports..

    well, I don't use any GAME emulators. I've used some computer emulators though (for example Basilisk II to run Mac OS 8.1...)

    Yeah, sometimes I get bored.
     
  14. I only use 1 and that's to play Pokemon!
    lol, it's called no$gba but I haven't played in a while.

    I use Zsnes but not recently though. Some time ago I played secret of mana with some stranger for like 6 hours. That was pretty sweet! I'm going to try to get someone to play the German Secret of Mana with me as I know partial German and I would actually learn a lot from that. I know Secret of Mana inside out and can translate it into English just from remembering what the English game had in it.

    Even though it's an old thread someone bumped:

    I use no$gba to emulate DS games, DS games are too expensive for the short amount of time they give to play. I miss old games that had a replayable quality about them.
