So, I´m using this Windows XP, "Dell" kinda computer, and I´d like to hear advice on what´s the best NES emulator out there.
I really would like playing FF2 right now, and I´m having problems finding good emulator files - I simply can´t use them!
I´ve been looking on www.vimm.net for a while now, and I can´t find any comprimated files (the ones with this chain icon on the file).
Do you know of any, or can you not use them on newer computers?
I use NNNesterJ, and it works perfectly for what I use it for.
Kind of, thanks A LOT! :love:
Hah, that ROM ruled! :D
Smooth and everything, no "stiffiness" whatsoever!
*walks off to play FF2*
I use virtualnes and it's just fine and dandy.
I used to use Nesticle back in the day, but in the last couple years I've been playing with JNes when I had to find a non-DOS alternative. It works good for me.
I use FC Ultra. here. Go here for some EMU's and their description..

Another vote for VirtualNes here, it's the fastest if all you want is to play most games.
Thanks for your advice, but I´m "stuck" with NNNesterJ now.
However...
Why does it always say "Set Disc 2" or something in the left corner?
FCE Ultra is godly. I've been using it since 2003.
So, If I ever change my mind, is it possible to move this FF2 data to another emulator?
Also, what´s with this "Disc 2" thing on NNNesterJ?
That's the famicom disk system alert, if it's in the emulator. If it's showing up during regular play of non FDS games, another reason not to use that emulator.
Btw, FCEU is most compatible, but it's slower and uses more memory. Virtualnes can be played full speed even with filters on any PC without disturbing multitask, even older ones, unless it's really far back.
And oh yea, it is possible to move the save game from one emulator to another, but not a guarantee. That is, it usually works but not always. You can try it by copying the .sav file to the save directory of the new emulator, and opening the same game with it. Only .sav battery files work, not emulator instant saves.
Well, this is so frustrating.
No matter what emulator I´m downloading, it ALWAYS says Unknown Deliverer and stuff; "only use files you can trust" bla bla bla.
I´ve downloaded this FCE Ultra now, from a seemingly trustworthy site, and STILL it´s unknown in every possible category!
Where are the good ones, anyway?
That you're describing seems like some sort of strict anti-virus or a netwatcher running on the computer, I don't think it's the files. The vnes site ... http://virtuanes.s1.xrea.com:8080/index.php if it's no good, it's like I said.
Alright, one more question, please!
How do I get those "bar strips" away from the screen?
You know, those things on the top and the bottom of the screen.
They´re pretty annoying.
just mess with the options. you have to set things to fill screen, and maybe change or enable other options like aspect correction, etc
