Most common emulators used?
« on: September 12, 2007, 09:29:34 am »
I don't need the emulator list, I can get that from the net, but which systems are the most common to download and emulate?

So far I have:

Mame
Kawaks
Nebula
Daphne

Atari emulation
Coleco
Sega Genesis
Nintendo NES, 64, Super


I'm not much for sega CD, etc

any other emulators that I might want to look into???

Thanks!

SGT

visual pinball is the only thing besides mame i wouldnt want missing on my cab. i wasnt a huge pin fan until i tried it and some tables are truly awesome and fun to play.

anything from nintendo is just better played on a wii imho. its just more fun with the correct controllers. many games were not meant for an arcade setup anyway. the few people i know that had these on thier cab did the same. bought a wii and using correct controllers. it even saves games that wouldnt normally save.

just my opinion.

Which "correct" controllers would you use on the wii?  NES and SNES are fantastic with arcade controls IMO.  N64 works well with a standard PC analog gamepad.  You could also use the Dpad on a PC gamepad for NES/SNES if the arcade controls bothered you.
