What Game Are You Playing Right Now?

Insane Guest · 05-04-2011, 04:24 PM

DAMN, I doubt you'll play them all, that's way too many to go through, unless you got the different language versions too.

Only game I need for MAME is the first Marvel Vs. Capcom ...

Laptop connected to TV + N64, SNES, and Gameboy emulator, and MAME + Xbox 360 Controller = Ultimate Game System

I haven't really used emulators that much (even though they're awesome).

In fact, all I've ever used was VisualBoyAdvance, and that was just for Mother 3 and some Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire hacks.

I tried playing some Pokemon hacks, they were just ridiculous! Some of the weirdest made up Pokemon in there.
Which ones did you play? Any good?

They were they first thing that I played when I got VBA, so I played the more well-known ones like Quartz and ChaosBlack.

I also attempted making one, but I never got very far (I was around 12 or 13).

in fact i just finished updating my arcade collection with the latest MAME set. 7,599 working games in total - think i'll ever play them all?

You wouldn't happen to know where I could get a good english rom of Pokemon Black/White and be able to recommend the best DS emulator to play it on (for minimal lag) would you?

When I was starting out with emulators, I used No$GBA (I think. It's been a while since I used one).

Insane Guest · 05-04-2011, 06:06 PM

^ I managed to get myself one, but the lag was unbearable! Maybe I just have a ****ty comp, but they're everywhere at this point.

NO$GBA is the best DS emulator, but they aren't very far on DS Emulating, so it's going to be a while till they get one up to GameBoy Advance type standards.
The rom downloads are always being shut down for such a recent game, but for every link shut down one should be uploaded, shouldn't be too hard to find.

Hmm, I don't emulate DS, too new for me! I mostly stick to 3rd and 4th gen consoles and handhelds. I do some GameCube and Wii emulation, but only for select games.

I do all emulation on my PC, through a 14" 1080p LCD. I have dual SNES controllers and dual N64 controllers which covers just about everything. The N64 controllers are great for arcade games, and the SNES work well for most older systems, from Atari and Nintendo to Sega and NEC. I also have a wired 360 controller, but I rarely use it...

Here's my console/handheld setup:

I also play old DOS games through DOSBox, and I just started taking advantage of a front-end called DBGL. I'm currently loading it up with old Apogee and Epic Megagames titles. Good stuff!
