Dual Orb II for the SNES. While looking through Super Gamebase yesterday I saw it and thought I might give it a try. Nothing exciting, but a RPG I never heard of before

I'd love to play Zelda on my PC. Could you explain what to download?

With 1.6 you can play Zelda : OoT fine. You should have a joypad with analog sticks though.

Exactly that. I configure the N-Rage input plugin to use the keyboard. Its not easy, but I'm quite trained in using the keyboard to play these games after so many playthroughs. For some games you have to set the analog stick range lower at certain points in the game so that the character slows down, in places where you have to sneak or move precisely. Annoying, but I can live with it.

Just to note, I configure the keyboard like this:

A-W-S-D = analog stick
Left-right-up-down = digital pad (never needed it)
numpad 1 = B
numpad 2 = A
numpad 3 = Z-trig
numpad 0 = L-trig
numpad del = R-trig
numpad enter = start
numpad 4-8-5-6 = C buttons

(Yes, B and A are reversed). This works perfectly fine for all games I have played, including both Zelda games, Mario64, Paper Mario and both banjo games.

Woah, that's quite hardcore Nonetheless, put a PS2-ish joypad on your wishlist for Santa The controls are much better that way

Oh, I almost forgot:

I've been playing the original Wipeout games in ePSXe. They're all pretty sweet, but the third is miles better than the other two (and pretty much every other sci-fi racer besides F-Zero GX).

Manhunt 2 - pukefest
Fire Warrior - I'm actually enjoying it, because it reminds me of Quake 2.
King of Fighters XI on a PS2 emulator.

Yes indeedy, although not a very good one.

An Ultramarine action RPG is in the works.
