4:Visual boy advance

5:EPSXE

Maybe not "technologically the best" but my 5 favourite are:

1. WinUAE
2. Steem
3. Gens
4. ZSnes
5. MAME

s2325 · 30 July 2007, 13:26

1. WinUAE
2. Atari800Win
3. Massage
4. Caprice32
5. MAME32

I don't do top lists, but I'd like to mention FCE Ultra in addition to what's already been said.

Anubis · 30 July 2007, 13:35

1. WinUAE - do I need to say anything about this one?

2. ZSNes - new version is great with multy-save state etc.

3. Spectaculator - great emu with many options and one downfall - you have to pay for license

4. DOSBox - almost perfect, but missing some important stuff as save state

5. pSX - nice PS emulator that runs much better then ePSX

The other that didn't make the list but are great emulators as well: PJ64, Gens, FreezeSMS, Visual Boy Avance, MAME, MESS, WinApe, WinVice...

I'd go with these, though poss not in quite that order.
I might remove MAME & replace with one of the NeoGeo emulators purely on the basis of Mame seeming to be an increasing victim of 'bloat'.

oh, um...
Poss replace VBA with ZNES as the emulator does more & I suspect is a harder system to reproduce.

oh, um...
Losts of other great emulators about for other systems, but as this is a top 5...

Marcuz · 30 July 2007, 15:29

uhm...

- WGens/Kega Fusion
- Magic Engine
- ZSnes
- Mame32Plus
- BlueMSX

I like also Nestopia and ScummVM; i just listed stuff i like because of its easy of use / nice GUI: it's a criterion as good as any to me.

Zetr0 · 30 July 2007, 15:30

I still so wish an Amiga / SegaMD emu for pocket PC (that runs under windoze mobile 5

)

Hungry Horace · 30 July 2007, 17:25

1) PSPUAE
2) WinUAE
3) PSPectrum
4) Spin
5) AmiMasterGear

not going for technical brilliance, but most useful / well applied.

Shoonay · 30 July 2007, 18:06

Not many emulators used by me these days... mostly due to lack of time...
One thing's sure, WinUAE would be... IS, the one I used the most and the only one currently. Oh, I'm *SO* hoping for a x64 version... (don't mind that Toni

)

DamienD · 30 July 2007, 18:45

Hmmm, I sure there was a similar thread not too long ago... Ah, here you are: Favourite Emulators

For me I'll stick with what I said previously:

1) MAME32
2) WinUAE
3) Snes9x
4) ePSXe
5) UNZ (FM Towns)
6) MagicEngine

Anubis · 30 July 2007, 19:10

Sir, have you tried pSX??

Yeah, it was quite some time ago though... Probably improved since then

Anubis · 30 July 2007, 19:32

It does not have all functionality of ePSX, but it is nice to run the games without need to mess with plugins.

sink · 30 July 2007, 20:17

1)winuae
2)winvice
3)snes
4)mame
5)fba
