Today I finally got my N64 to USB working right after 2 years of having it (needed a different input plugin). This prompted for a 3 hour session of ocarina of time and then a 2 hour session of majora's mask.
Do you guys use any emulators? If so, which one. I personally love them because it allows me to play my old games while watching TV. Another huge plus of emulation is higher quality, so playing N64 games on my computer looks much better than on my TV.
I use these emulators:
FCEUX - NES
Snes9x - SNES
Project 64 - N64
Dolphin - Gamecube/Wii
Virtual Boy Advanced - GB, GBC and GBA
pSX - Playstaion
PCSX2 - Playstation 2 _________________________________________________________

Emulators are the only way for some of us to hold onto our childhood. I use them, especially MAME (Multple Arcade Machine Emulator). _________________________________________________________ Opinions are like arse holes, everybody has one and your's stinks.

Emulators are the reason why I can't stop playing Castlevania

I've only played arcade machines in the back of random food joints, never to the extend of what you guys probably have played them. For that exact reason, I don't even have an arcade emulator. _________________________________________________________

hey im a young'n (21) and i always loved playing the Rally-X games at my campground. Its on live arcade for anybody who wants to check it out even as a demo. It gets pretty addicting. Other favorites of mine are Gauntlet, Arkanoid, Arcade Tetris, Hang-On, Pole Position, Lethal Enforcers, and alot more. I'd probably fill this whole thread up with favorites _________________________________________________________
Wow man the only arcade games I have ever put a lot of money into was the simpsons game and gauntlet legends.
We hardly played those anyways. When I was little my soccer team always went to a pizza place that had the simpsons game so I played it then. A lazer tag place that my friends always went to for their birthday parties had gauntlet legends so we played that only when we went there. _________________________________________________________

lol my younger years games are all from the playstation and N64. I never had an N64 when they were popular (got mine in 2003), but I had the playstation. I remember playing digimon world and crash bandicoot for hours. Then going to school and hear everyone talking about ocarina of time and majora's mask. Brings back some good memories. _________________________________________________________
