Emulators

NES: FCEUX
Notes: Most commonly used NES emulator. Most speed runners use this.

SNES: SNES9X & Higan
Notes: SNES9x is the most popular SNES emulator, having dethroned ZSNES some time ago. Higan is considered to be the “most accurate” and supports many systems

N64: Project 64 & Mupen64Plus
Notes: P64 is mostly considered the one to use but is known to be unstable and some games do not work. Also some games only work on P64 having been developed for only it. Only works on windows. Mupen is cross platform and can experience similar issues as P64

Sega: Fusion
Notes: Formerly known as “Kega II” and Kega Fusion, This is a Multi platform Sega emulator. emulates SG1000, SC3000, Master System, Game Gear, Genesis/Megadrive, SegaCD/MegaCD and 32X. Requires some configuration prior to use..

Playstation: RetroArch
Notes: Most comprehensive emulator. Can be confusing to set up initially. Emulate many consoles. PS1 emulation requires a bios.

  1. just a thought, maybe you should also put a section for the bios and plugins for the epsxe, cuz there are quite a few, and it took quite a bit for me to find them

  2. Disqus generic email templateWe are unable to post the BIOS due to legal issues. But the plugins and any missing files will be linked to eventually.
    A small setup guide will be written as well which will explain in detail how to set up the emulator and where to find some of the files/plugins.

  3. pSX is better emulator with virtually no configuration

  4. A quick 10 second look at it seems to pass the sniff test. Might be added in a few days once i try it out.

  5. You may want to expand this section a bit to include some of the newer/better/updated emulators (mupen64-plus, bizhawk, pcsx, gens, fceux, bsnes/higan)

  6. I dont see why not.
    Just give me some time to do so. Lazy, etc.

  7. If you’re feeling lazy, you can probably either link to or rip off a chunk of http://www.zophar.net/windos.html 😛
