READ THE WIKI BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS LIKE: >Where do I get games OR >What is the best emulator for...
Check out the wiki for the emulator you're using if you run into trouble, there may be a solution there too, often including recommendations for optimal game settings.
Remember to submit bug reports or shit won't get fixed.
you can always edit the playlist files and add the roms you want, unless you have trouble with the whole set or something
Wyatt Russell
You can make custom playlists to add stuff not picked up by scanning.
This javascript thing seems to work pretty well. Just copy the path of the folder where your DS ROMs are to the Path field, drag and drop the roms onto the page, then export the lpl, name it "Nintendo - Nintendo DS Decrypted.lpl" and place it in the playlist folder.
keep getting this SD card error with every copy of DQ VIII i try, anyone know what the issue could be? the SD card is working fine for everything else
Lucas Hughes
rpcs3 (the ps3 emulator) is now launching a Patreon to have a developer work on the project full time. It can already run some real games like Persona 5 and the Hatsune Miku games (youtube.com/watch?v=9ETbIuD6d0c and youtube.com/watch?v=N12u_mg3_xM) but more work is needed.
So, what's the best emulator for some multiplayer fun? (Multiplayer as in online)
Also idc if it's an old as fuck console, as long as there's fun games and the multi is good
Jaxon Miller
probably since it's euro
Daniel Reed
Dolphin has good netplay.
Josiah Stewart

Robert Kelly
so i've been using mame .160 ever since it was available too download
has there been any developments that make it worth it to download the latest version? feels like you can play pretty much every (2d) mainstream arcade title out there by this version
Jack Peterson
I'm amazed he got to 22 dollars
Thomas James
Don't you need a very good PC for dolphin? I play on a laptop
Hunter Kelly
Eh, depends on how good the laptop is.
Brandon Allen
How much work is he even going to be able to do on his own? Is it really worth investing in one guy?
Joshua Flores
So is there a fix for Darkstalkers Chronicle on PPSSPP? I can make the game run (somewhat) but the graphics are weird (some parts of the background overlap eachothers, the pause menu appears behind the character sprites etc..) Could another PSP emulator run it better?
Matthew Reyes
Make sure you're using the standalone and not retroarch's core.
That is all I can advise.
Elijah Foster
Anyone have experience with the arcade version of Darius 2? When i boot it up i get horrific loud audio glitches at the start when the Taito logo appears, and then periodically it happens mid game too. Tried MAME and FBA cores in RA, and also their standalone versions. Tried different roms from different places too :\
Jason Powell
Where can I get the bios files for psx emus?
Bentley Sanders
literally on the wiki found in the OP
Jack Davis

Grayson Lewis
I have galaxy tab s2 9.7 tablet with 1536x2048 OLED display. What settings or plugins should i use for ePSXe to make both 3d and 2d sprite games look as close to original as possible? Do emulated scanlines actually look anywhere close to how they were on actual CRT displays?
Kayden Phillips
I hope people notice it. Made a thread about it but it died
Robert Reed
bump
Tyler Fisher
let it die
Elijah Lopez
So, is it possible to use DLC in cemu yet? Specifically for MK8?
Kayden Scott
So Cemu seems to be the 'in' thing atm, does this any way kills the interest of other emulators' development?
pcsx2 and dolphin taking their own sweet time for anything noteworthy, if there is one.
Chase Harris
Bros, please help. I'm running the FBA core in RetroArch (I'm on OSX). I used to run all roms just fine on Windows. But now every CPS2 game I try crashes the emulator. The only one I can play atm is Final Fight, it runs perfectly. But otherwise, can't even play Super SFII.
I tried putting QSound in my ROM folder. Tried 2 different files. Didn't work.
So now that even using emulators is illegal, as well as dumping your own roms from your own copies, are you people going to abide by the law?
Oliver Stewart
go back to and learn to read. They don't explicitly state emulators are illegal.
Austin Allen
this is legalese horseshit and Nintendo knows it. There's nothing they can do about emulators so they resort to scare tactics directly linking emulation to piracy. The fact of the matter is that putting a disk you own (or dumping a cartridge) and playing that with an emulator you own is not illegal, has never been illegal, and never will be illegal. Claiming otherwise is a lie.
I honestly hope Nintendo sues Cemu just to prove a point that closed source emulators are bad if they shutter due to not wanting to fight, but I'd still donate to them to help them fight if they did. There is clear legal precedent that emulation is legal and Nintendo would get laughed out of court.
is there any progress in emulators on psvita? The moment this happens this console will be a beast
Logan Brooks
Tried various versions of Nox, I'm currently on 3.8.
I don't know why my Nox still says my Virtualisation isn't enabled, despite it being definitely enabled.
Tried to update my BIOS, didn't change anything.
What's the reason for this and how can I fix it?
Camden Roberts
I can't launch PPSSPP no matter what I do. I've tried downloading the official and buldbot builds and nothing.
It worked 2 weeks ago, what do you think changed? New Nvidia drivers?
Austin White
>Nintendo would get laughed out of court. CEMU dweebs are this delusional.
Thomas Cruz
so...how do I run a game in Cemu? the wiki is obtuse as fuck
How do I GET the key?
Aiden Lee
If anything this promotes N64 tier hacky emulation as the developers will only work on well known titles to get those patreon bucks
Jackson Wright
>CEMU dweebs are this delusional. There is legal precedent of Sony getting rekt in court over a commercial emulator on a competitor's system. In case of CEMU money wouldn't even be a problem as they are getting 5K per month and when the law suit hits all they need to do is release the source code and rake in donations.
Angel Powell
Lemme guess, emulators even for public domain stuff like demoscene shit is illegal too?
Henry Roberts
The key should be posted with the game scene release?
Easton Walker

Nicholas Howard
is it possible to play mario kart 8 on cemu with the DLC or 200cc update? I can't find any definitive answer on this
Christopher Nelson
No, at least not yet. Sea emu still needs another two years before it will reach a good state imo, I know that's a long way off and it's progressing very fast but I definitely think it will be worth the wait, as opposed to getting it to work fruitlessly right now.
Ethan Hughes
Just get a save manager for 3DS. It can copy the saves to your SD.
Sebastian Walker
Checked the wiki, but didn't really have a best of. Looking for some good romhacks I can play that aren't Pokémon. I haven't tried really anything else. Anything on NES, SNES,GBA,Genesis since I'll be using th 3ds to play them
Bentley Clark
Why do you think consoles want to go digital? And Microsoft wanted their console not to play used games
Jackson James
Have you tried Super Kaizo Mario World? Don't forget to ask /vr/ as they are experts on this subject.
Camden Lee
What is that?
Asher Thompson
I've seen videos actually might as well try it our and I'll go ask /vr/ thanks.
Juan Cook
retroarch --menu --verbose >> log.txt 2>&1 Run it like this then launch the game and paste the last 20 lines of the log.txt here
Noah Parker
>is it possible to play mario kart 8 on cemu with the DLC or 200cc update? I can't find any definitive answer on this Yes with the update
I merged the v64 update and now I have 200cc Also there's a complete cache on reddit
NO TO DLC
Cooper Collins
I love free market capitalism its wrong rofl wouldn't be able to live without it in fact my entire day revolves around it I've made hundreds of thousands thanks to the stock market, so yeah... that's not honest work but it's the game everyone is playing yea same here but with acquisions and selling off companies get a brokerage account as your first step once you've done that, fund it and start gambling on leveraged ETFs tehcloud: when we sold our first company, I put my dividends into a CD, and the interest alone paid all my living expenses that will let you build up a solid base for real investments in dividend-yielding assets this is what I don't get about people who want to make money in emulation there is no money in emulation spend your time on the stock market if you want to get rich :p
#retroarch, still happy to take your patreon money
Sebastian Smith

Levi Rivera
Guy with the i7 and gtx 970
I cleared the forsaken forest, and now I'm at windfall island. Not once I got a drop from 30 FPS since I tweaked my settings, hell I even put the GPU buffer back to medium
This game is very comfy
Josiah Powell
I'm up for using vulkan in retroarch, but for some reason it causes NESTopia to run really choppy. I want to use vulkan for beetle-HW though and that doesn't work properly in GL any more. Any ideas for a fix?
Is there anything you did differently other than specifying performance in the nvidia settings?
Samuel Wilson
Is it possible to apply two .ips images to the same rom? Want to apply color and sound restoration to VI Advance.
Alexander Morris
looks like Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. The Soulless Army, aka the aspect raidou's game
William Gutierrez
On 2nd look, this appears to occur in all 2d cores. Master system/megadrive are also choppy in vulkan.
Kayden Cook
Anyone wanna netplay brawl?
Brody Brooks
Is it safe to emulate virtual boy? I've read that it could strain your eyes and even cause blindness. Is it safe to emulate it without the risk of going blind?
Jason Diaz
>Is there anything you did differently other than specifying performance in the nvidia settings?
I have a zotac card and used the zotac software to overclock it to 110℅
I am using the reddit cache with about 9000 assets
I set CPU timer to host
I use 1.7.0 patreon (patched offline with mudlord bps) instead of the public 1.7.0d
I play on a 3840*2160 4k screen
Henry Peterson
anyone?
Austin Reyes
Alright then. Thanks.
Brody Watson
Virtual Boy is very dangerous. If it doesn't cause you to go blind it will cause mustard gas to leak out of your PC.
Just don't do it.
Matthew Martinez
tfw no one will netplay with you g-guess i'll just keep fighting cpu
Levi Ward
Stop emulating.
Connor Morales
This is a very stupid question, but where do you actually find 3DS games reliably? Google brings up fucktons of pages but while I am not smart enough to know where to find the games, I am not dumb enough to just click randomly.
Bentley King
Read the wiki
Joseph Evans
whats the best emulator
Sebastian Anderson
It's windows and nvidia sucking ass as usual.
Linux = masterrace as always
Jace Clark
I can't find any downloads for Wiiware, does anyone have links to Mega Man 9 and 10?
Gabriel Hughes
Check the thread archive from like 3 or 4 days ago, i posted a magnet linkl with every wiiware and vc title
Zachary Richardson
Okay, I managed to get both of them, but my audio is fucking up really bad and I'm experiencing some slowdown.
David Morales
Is there a easy way to get Wii games like for Wii U?
Wiki does not help
Jaxon Davis
No, why would there be? The wiki is good enough.
Christian Evans
Check the dolphin wiki then. Works on my Machine™
Robert Garcia
But if they actually manage to make a working PS3 emulator, you'll play it all the same won't you, you autistic parasite?
Elijah Nguyen
230 bucks already? That's pretty good
Easton Anderson
So where's that PCSX2 progress report?
Carter Fisher
It's close...
James Phillips
hps2x64 is the future
Bentley Richardson
As in you'll need to a time machine to get to the point in time where its actually worthwhile.
Levi Jenkins
tehcloud is not part of the dev team. It's the nestopia guy.
Brody Wilson
It wouldn't be finished in a million years, and mooch has probably only got five tops before he kills himself.
Anthony Martinez
>responding to the resident pajeet shitposter
Thomas Murphy
Is the G3258 good for average emulation? It got a very high single core performance, but only 2 cores and 2 threads
Ryan Barnes
yeah dual core is ideal for most emulators. Are you overclocked?
