10 Emulators To Turn Your Computer Into A Retro Console

Mupen64plus is an N64 emulator. The program itself doesn’t come with a GUI so downloading a front-end may be required for ease of use, with the developers providing links to some recommended ones. Similar to many programs emulating its generation of consoles, it uses a plug-in system and you would definitely want to try a few to enhance your performance.

Which N64 emulator do you consider best: Project64 or Mupen64Plus?
M64P is an easy packaging of Mupen64Plus that comes with a GUI frontend, configured plugins, etc. Mupen64Plus is the emulator itself. Source: about 2 years ago

Cheats on Visualboy Advance for Mac
Visual Boy Advance is actually outclassed these days, use mGBA instead. Source: 11 months ago
I must know, how do you emulate fire emblem on a windows laptop?
Which game do you want to emulate? If you're talking about fe7 (localized as just Fire Emblem in the west), you're gonna need a ROM which I can't link here but I can PM to you if you need it, and an emulator. I recommend Mgba (https://mgba.io/) for GBA games. Source: 11 months ago
Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble (D-Pad Controls) (GBC Hack)
Install the GBA emulator called “mGBA” on your 3DS (You can install it through Universal Updater or heres a link to it: https://mgba.io [v0.10.2] ) It should be a cia file to install through FBI. Source: 11 months ago
Hi, new to emulators. I had a question, can I run gba and nds games on this?
No, you can use mGBA for GBA games, and MelonDS for NDS games. Source: about 1 year ago
If you had to use the 4.5 navis to create a team, who would you choose?
Here's the thread for the Real Battle Network Gameplay patch, here's the English translation patch, and here's the emulator I recommend where you can just slot in the Navi of your choice to unlock them immediately. The ROM you'll have to scare up for yourself, but I'm sure you can handle it. Source: about 1 year ago
