Title: Best emulators for NES, Atari 2600, and help with P64.
Post by: skid_68 on January 08, 2005, 07:25:19 pm

Hey guys, Im still setting up all my games on my cab. But have been stumped by wich are the best emulators for NES, and atari 2600 for use with Mamewah.

Also how do you make Project 64 quit with the escape button? Its setup for alt+f4 for quit in P64. Esc just resizes the window, and I cant get back into mamewah. I set it up like they said here. http://www.mamewah-setup.co.uk/html/info_settings.html#Project64 but it wont work. Any help guys? THanks.

The best Atari 2600 emulator is z26. The current version has been hacked to allow you to use a user configurable INI file to set up your controls. You can get the file from the last post in this thread:

The best NES emulator imho is VirtuaNES http://virtuanes.s1.xrea.com:8080/. It is very user friendly, has lots of features and has high compatibilty. I think screenshotarchive has a modified version also.
