Re: Vista Ultimate game emulators

1964, zSNES... Most of them work well. I haven't tried a whole lot... MAME
works, I haven't been able to get PCSX2 work smoothly yet, but I haven't put
too much time into it.

Re: Vista Ultimate game emulators


Any good DS or Gameboy ones? I have not played those in a long time. Do I
need to run them in XP mode?

Re: Vista Ultimate game emulators

I haven't tried any of the portables yet on Vista. I haven't had to run any
emulators in XP mode yet.

Re: Vista Ultimate game emulators

Some emulators are older then others.

Like to play some old games that I purchased without having to hook it all
up to the tv again.

Re: Vista Ultimate game emulators

I run zSNES DOS version. And 1964 for N64. The Saturn emulator was slow, but
it worked. I haven't tried it since I upgraded to a new CPU, though. I have
all my emulators so I don't have to hook up all my old systems, too. I
had a whole lot of them (Sega Master System, NES, Atari) that worked fine,
but reinstalled and haven't put some of them back.
