Your First Emulator - Page 3

SCHUMI-4-EVA · May 8th, 2008

Hmm I think it was HelloGB or something like that when I started with emulation in 2000.

Rufoo · May 8th, 2008

Nesticle when it first appeared. When was that like 1997 or something? That emulator truly rocked my world, I couldn't believe it at the time.

Sardu was a friggin' god to me back in the day. Genecyst and Snes97 when first released also had a similar effect.

Exodus · May 8th, 2008

Nesticle here.

StriderVM · May 8th, 2008

I think it was about in 1998. I think it was SNES9X. Not very sure though. On that time I thought it was impossible to understand. Then followed by Nesticle.

Allnatural · May 8th, 2008

NESten, back in 2001 I think. I played Rygar.

Bonus...I remember a time when you could buy Bleem at Best Buy.

**Kirby** · May 8th, 2008

No$GB

Squall-Leonhart · May 8th, 2008

No$GB with Pokemon Blue.

snickothemule · May 8th, 2008

Zsnes with Final Fight 3

22point8 · May 8th, 2008

Gens and Streets of Rage

Noja87 · May 12th, 2008

VBA 4 or 5 years ago. Cant remember the first game i tried.

Titus03 · May 12th, 2008

Can't remember clearly... the first ones I tested were fMSX, PSEmu Pro, bleem!, No$GBA and ZSnes.

RF · May 12th, 2008

UltraHLE playing OOT

Nesticle & Bleem (Still have my retail disc) are a close second.

BigIg · May 12th, 2008

Around 2001, started messing with emulators. I'm wanting to say it was either PCSX or AdriPSX, I think. Well, I know it was a PS1 emulator, anyway.

Didn't run very well on this kickass system:
733 AMD Duron
64MB RAM (PC133 I believe)
NVidia Vanta 16MB
Soundblaster Audio
30GB Harddrive
Windows ME (Which later had XP Installed after it was upgraded to 192MB ram)

I believe it had a 150 watt power supply. Thats alot of power!

**bositman** · May 12th, 2008

Mame or UltraHLE,i think it was mame.Back then I didn't even know it's an emulator (or what an emulator is for that matter

)

sigmax · May 12th, 2008

i think it was Snes9x i can't remember well

**Chrono Archangel** · May 13th, 2008

like the others... ZSNES then closely followed by Nesticle

Fireforx · May 13th, 2008

Snes9x those were the days my pc was struggling to run it

philm1 · May 13th, 2008

epsxe, about 3 years ago, when I started to learn more about computer stuff. Ran with a few problems with my old desktop, mainly w/ high res settings.

Geese Howard · May 13th, 2008

Callus, followed by NeorageX

**patrickvl** · May 16th, 2008

First emulation I contributed a little to was a waveform emulator for the C64's SID chip (called SIDPLAY for Linux 1.0, made by Michael Schwendt and others). Later on I started on a 6502 emulator, which worked but was never finished.
