  1. I have zero problem getting Stella to run on my system but EVERY other emulator I have tried is nothing but a pain in the ass.

    thanks

     

    That's because most emulators on Linux were developed for Linux as an afterthought (where the main focus was on Windows). Stella is actually one of the very few emulators that is developed exclusively on Linux, and ported to OSX and Windows afterwards. IMHO, a Linux system with a properly supported OpenGL card is still the best environment for Stella.

     

    Thanks Stephen! Stella is the top of the line. I found an NES emulator I was about to download and it had no sound whatsoever and I couldn't figure out how to make my gamepad work with it. Screw it, I'll play Atari :)


  2. I am looking for a good simple NES emulator prefer one which has an exe file.

    I have zero problem getting Stella to run on my system but EVERY other emulator I have tried is nothing but a pain in the ass.

    If anyone can point me to a good easy to install/use NES emu and some ROM's I would appreciate.

    thanks


  3. As much as I love the original hardware my original console (Vader) is packed away in a closet while Stella is sitting right here on my desktop ;)

    For Atari I prefer emulation because it allows me to have all my games at my fingertips PLUS I can play the new games in development here on AA.

    Emulation is my pick nowadays.


  4. Thank you for all the positive feedback.

     

    I just got my first "angry" message through eBay. They claimed that I have a better chance of seeing God than I do of selling this game for $2300 and that they just saw one at a penny arcade auction go for $900. Rather than be an ass, I apologized for upsetting them so much and reminded them that I started the auction at $1 (angry people hate politeness).

     

    Perhaps they should have been a little more active at the penny arcade auction?

     

    I am starting to have fun now.

    Jackassery on their part! I myself am content just to play Air Raid on Stella (and not that often) but some people will gladly pay 5 grand or better to own it.


  5. Needs the latest stella 3.4.1 to run.

     

    Wonder if the latest Stella is compatible with Windows 2000? I am still hanging stoneage style here.

    Yes, it is. I am currently using Windows 2000 as well and it works fine.

     

    Thanks! I thought I was the only one :)

    Just gave it a brief run and LOVE it! The game seems great. Cant wait to see more.
