Best Emulator Games

(1/6) > >>

Styrix:
Pintsize's experience with FF2 reminded me that some games are actually better played on an emulator.
What are those best games to play on emulator?

I've found that a lot of old games are better if you can jack the speed of the emulator up, as they are too slow, like the old Dragon Warrior games are way better at 2 or 3 times speed.  And some of the FF games are definately better in their hacked translations.

What are people's favorites?

I thought this was going to be a thread about Emus in video games. Which would rock. Rock you like a cop.

Also: Related to emus

thanks, dan.

i have an irrational disrtust of the ostrich.

and i'm neither here nor there on emulators as i don't own a computer.

Schmung:
Gunstar Heroes on the MegaDrive (or Genesis to you folk across the pond) is totally awesome to this day, lots of stuff on MAME and NeoGeo worth looking at as well.

I use ZSNES to play all the kickass RPGs that never made it to PAL release.

What kind of mind decides not to release FFVI, Chrono Trigger or Super Mario RPG, and then gives us FF:Mystic Quest?

The only decent thing we got that the US didn't was Terranigma, so any emulator users should check that out, and see how it feels. (Enix actually manage to better Zelda with this game, that's pretty impressive).

And of course there's the translated Seiken Densetu 3 (Secret of Mana 2), which I'm playing on co-op with my room mates.

As for games that are better to play on emu, save state does mean you don't have to finish a game in one sitting if it doesn't have a save system *ahem*StarFox*ahem*, and the frameskip/fast forward means you don't have to sit through long boring cut-scenes if you don't want to (also the Opera scene in FFVI is just funny played at high speed).
