PFL Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Obligatory newbie Colecovision question... What's a good emulator that runs on today's PC's? I've tried a few but they all seem to be ancient and don't run on my system with various compatibility issues. So is there something newer kicking around than ColEm? I've been intrigued by the CV for a while but never had the chance to play one. Please help an old man realise his dream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClassicGMR Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I also have a windows 7 64 bit pc and bluemsx works great. I read about this in another thread and I cannot believe how good it is. To think I've been missing this emulator forever. A definite download. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikrananka Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I also have a windows 7 64 bit pc and bluemsx works great. Agreed - this is what I use on my Windows 7 64 bit machine. The emulation accuracy is also spot on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 BlueMSX is without a doubt the top CV emulator, but I still use M.E.S.S. from time to time as well as Virtual ADAM and both of those emulators will work on a Win 7 system as well.

chart45 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 someone know if emulator can run sgm game like king's valley or thexder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manoau2002 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 someone know if emulator can run sgm game like king's valley or thexder I am pretty sure that publically there isn't. I thought I read somewhere that opcode customized the emulator to support sgm for his own personally useage. (for development)Either way at this time no roms have been released that use the sgm.

PFL Posted December 1, 2013 Author Share Posted December 1, 2013 Thank you. Bluemsx works well though the GUI took a bit of getting used too. Finally, I can try out some of these lauded arcade ports. The system is like hens teeth in the UK so it's not like I can just pop to a shop and pick up a cheap system. This is where emulation really shines for me. Again, thank you.

youki Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 i own those game and i was thinking maybe if emulator could support those sgm game i could dump and play since i dont have a sgm yet As i said in another thread. Just play MSX versions of these games on Blue MSX , they should be the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
