What system do you emulate, what's your favorite emulator and how do you organize your roms?

Also, this would be a place to ask for help (no roms) if you have any problem with emulator.

Here is my favorite emulators, WinUAE

My favourite is Virtual Boy Advance, for Gameboy Advance (and therefore all previsous ones. I start off with nicely organised collection of ROMs but as to play them you need to drag them onto the Virtual Boy icon they end up in the Virtual Boy's folder, also, it saves to the same folder so I end up with lots of empty game folders and one big folder full of games, saves and emulator files.

I emulate anything I feel like at the moment. Been emulating SMS, Genesis, Nes, Snes, GB/GBC, GBA, PSX, Game Gear and Amiga.

Btw... is there a way to convert Amiga games to PC?

Would be nice if there is one. Kon-Tiki finally managed to find War Wizard full version, but for Amiga only. k:

In the Visual Boy Advance (latest version 1.7.2) go to options >> emulators >> directories and set folders for each option (screen shot, battery file...) to what do you like them to be. This will separate battery files, saves and stuff from roms.

Download GBA Renamer, update it, select folder for incomming roms and where your good archive will be, and run it. It will recognize all your roms and name them properly.

Download GBA Front, install it and in options set game folders to your archive. GBAFront is great front end for game boy able to download game screen shoots and title screens from the internet. In options also select your VBA file, so you'll be able to run games by double click in GBAFront.

Here is couple screen shots of GBAFront



Hope this will help you organize your GBA collection.

Can't ask for the new roms. :angry:

Linking to the sites with GBA roms can get this web site in to problems! (and we don't like to do that )

Did I just miss it, or you old game fans really don't use any C64 emulators?
There are sites with tens of tousends games for C64!!!
Best emulator is Frodo, but there are other cool one.
There's even a MS-DOS 1.2 emulator for Commodore 64, so you can run your MS-DOS emulator inside a C64 emulator (completely crashing your system if you try to get exces of your HD) :bleh:

I can't get the syntax right for C64 emulators, so nope, I don't use it :whistle:
