    Psx v1.8 is my favorite Playstation emulator. Although it still requires the Playstation bios, it doesn't require various plugins that the others do. More recently the emulator supports Vib Ribbon. :)

     

    Playstation emulation is far from perfect, but it has come a long way. You can find most of the emulators & plugins at http://www.ngemu.com/psx and the various bios at http://membres.lycos.fr/emulsysteme/archives/bios/

     

    This is the PSX emulator I use and it works great. I've never been able to get the various plug ins to work correctly in PSX emulation :sad: so this was what I needed. :D

     

    Look for Virtual Game Station PC PSX Emulator it's a great emulator if you can find it

    Double_Dragon__Easy_Nude_.zip Okay I'm starting to get into rom editing big time and even dabbing some into translating now (although the translating isn't going real well) I made a nice little patch for Double Dragon that does the following: Removes the clothes of the female characters (I know theres a hack like that out there already) but I also made the game a little easier by fixing it so that most all ememies (except the last boss as I thought that just would take all the fun left in the game out) die with one knock down, this includes the giants. I'm attaching the IPS patch but as I'm not sure how the moderator feels about patches it is subject to be removed if I have made a booboo.

    Thanks JetSet.That was the info i needed.

     

    It seems like companies that managed to push the 2600 - Activision and Imagic - just weren't able to make simliar leaps on the 5200.

     

    For example, from recent play experience, Megamania on the 5200 seems to me to be almost identical to its 2600 counterpart, minus the "flashy" name screen.

     

    Yep. Activisions 2600>5200 translations were all nearly identical as well. Keystone Kapers, Megamania, Kaboom, River Raid...hell all of them! Id really like to know what companies did this...

     

    Agreed, the graphics weren't even really upgraded much, look at Kaboom (the only big difference IMHO is the 1812 Overture which is annoying as hell) and also Pitfall

    Still might have to check it out, I wasn't that impressed with MESS, and I haven't found a Coleco, Intellivision, or C-64 (and I loved the C-64 back in the day, Space Taxi & Park Patrol kicked ass) emulator that I like yet.

    If anyone is interested, my finally analysis is that the Atari800Win PLus implementation of "H: drives" is flawed and unreliable. I found a work around, I'll post more later.

     

    Yea please do, I'm interested, I haven't tried the H: Drive through Atari800Win+ yet so I'll be interested to know how your luck turns out.

    ?Thanks for the help, the reason I'm wanting to know is I'm going to make my old computer a emulator player, cause I jus think that would be cool. And even though it's old, 233 it should still be able to handle pretty much any of the 8 bits.

    I have a Windows 98 PII 400 as a secondary computer and had problems getting NES emulators to work on it (even though SNES and Genesis emulators run fine on it). I finally tried FreezeSMS, and it works well on that machine. It emulates NES, SMS, Game Gear and the Colecovision. I don't know about your computer, but give it a try.

     

     

    Hard to beat Nestopia for NES emulation its the one I stick with. I'll take a look at FreezeSMS, but I dunno, I tend to like a seperate emulator for each system. Thats why I got rid of MESS.

    Playing though Hacker today and accidently beating it (I wish, actually I found it with a hex editor looking though the image :) ) I noticed one of the acticles in the newspaper at the end of the game says something along the lines of "Mountain View Calf. - Activision Inc. has announced the introduction of 'Music Studio' and 'Gamemaker,' two new computer programs for your Atari Computer" etc etc.

     

    Now my question is did either of these programs ever see the light of day, as I don't recall either of them, and I cannot find images of them.

    Long ago I had a Window running all emulators but at the same time I was working at home with art commissions and I beed getting lots of online bugs and was slowingme down then my friend got me a new computer with linux run software name Debian this helps me in not getting any more online virus but the down side I cant seem to have ANY emulators running on here at all. For years I had not play ANY emulators from z26 to MAME and I realy missed playing them. And I dont know anything in or around linux at all but my friend do cuase he been using linux from day one but as he try to fine the right linux kernel (dont know what that mean) to run any emulator on this Debian linux that Im using. But there seem to be none that can work right and plase some say go download this or that but again I dont know anything about linux and my roomate try his best. Is there any emulator for dummy like me? Or the right place to fine all kernels for this Debian linux? :(

     

    Theres quite a few of the emulators for windows that you can run in Linux under WINE, I know it's kinda funny running an emulator through a emulator like that, but it does work :)

    I was reading about patches available for Super Mario Brothers for the original NES in this month's issue of Retro Gaming Times Monthly.

     

    I have downloaded the patches from the article, however I cannot figure out how to run them. I am using the NNNester J emulator, version 0.23.

     

    I don't like the way other NES emuulators run, so I am hoping there is way to use the patches through this one.

     

    Please help! I am really looking forward to playing Luigi's Chronicals and Mario Adventure!

     

    You need IPSWin.exe if you want the patch to be perm. in the rom, What I do is make a copy of the rom, run ipswin and attach the rom file, then the patch, click patch, then presto I have a rom file with the patch built in. You can also find most of the roms with the patches already applied, simple do a search with google

    The selling point of the 5200, if there ever was one, was Miner 2049er.

     

    Dunno if I would say that or not, M2049er is/was a great game which I was never able to find on cart for the 5200 when I was a kid. But, the reason I bought the 5200 was because at the time (at least at my local JCPenny's) you got the 5200 or a Colecovision. For some reason I just didn't like the Colecovision, so when I sold my 2600 along with almost 200 carts (for which now looking back, I could break my own foot off in my ass for doing) and my mom took me and the $250 I got for it to JC's, I grabbed the 5200 and with her kicking in some $ too, Missile Command, Centipede, and then later when it was available a tracball to play both of them with.

    Without the cable/equipment to dump my gba bios myself, anyone know off hand where I can find a valid bios file?

     

    To answer my own post. I found a friend who had a cable he got on the net, and was able to dump the bios from my own GBA. so thanx for all the help :)

    I found the emulator several years back in one of the emu newsgroups, I sent Fox a copy, haven't heard as to any problems he's had with it. Myself I never had any, it seemed to run all the games I tried perfectly, granted I never tried hooking in a PS controller (I always used the keyboard) so as far as limited feedback through a PS controller I can't say. As I said in my above post it allows you to put it on a cd with like 3 files from a PS disk, and presto you have a PS to Computer bootable cd, I always took from that feature that it overlooked copy protection since it would allow you to make bootable cd's. Again this was a feature I never tried. At the time I found it in the ng's I was in a phase of collecting and and all emulators I could get my hands on which now I have long since abandoned. It was really a waste of space for me as I only owned like 2-4 PS games and was never a fan of PS. I never even bothered getting a PS2, call me stupid, but I just never could get into them, just something about PS I never liked I guess. As far as differences between a PS and PSOne. If I remember correctly the PSOne had less memory or something than a regular PS, as I had a neighbor that had a PSOne and several games and some of the games would not run on the PSOne, saying something like not enough memory or something like that.
