I just got a gaming pc and it’s pretty powerful. Im new to pc gaming and i want to download emulators to play old games. I have a steam deck and have emudeck which welped me ALOT. But now i have a full on gaming pc and i want to know where to download emulators and how to set them up. Specifically im looking for ps 1-3, ps vita, psp, Xbox and Xbox 360. I didnt grow up with nintendo was mostly a ps guy. Any assistance would be much appreciated thanks.

Also i have websites for rom but they only have 1.0 versions those all are before patching major bugs and glitches. Id also appreciate anyone that needs where to finds roms with latest version for games. And would LOVE if people could tell me a website that has mods for older games.

I just wanted to share the information, find out by testing and probably no one knew about it

Yes I know, you're probably sick and tired of seeing emulator beginners ask this question time and time again, but I haven't used an android emulator on PC for like 7-8 years so I am completely lost as to what emulator to use.

I have searched far and wide and I keep hearing contradicting statements on all kinds of emulators, some say its the best emulator ever, some say its packed to the brim with malware.

So basically I was wondering if any experts here have any sort of advice on what android emulator to use at the moment, doesn't matter if its free or paid (I doubt paid android emulators exist but they seem like they'd be way more trustworthy), I just really want to do some fun emulating again, cheers!

Edit: By safe I mean not packed with anything malicious, my data is public news by now anyways

I’m trying to download a Nintendo switch ROM but I get let down this rabbit hole of downloading, random crap, and getting “ virus detectors “ and “driver installers” shoved down my throat and I never actually get the ROM. I got my original roms from a website that was like Nswrom. Fair or like carnival so if that rings a bell please send me a link or show me what ROM downloader a few years

Hi all, I've recently been feeling an urge to revisit pokemon yellow and play the game again. I'm looking at emulators but don't trust that anything I download won't put my pc at risk. Any advice on a safe emulator to download? And also a safe place to download a pokemon yellow rom?

Let’s see, my PC isn’t the best, but so far everything has always run fine. GTX 1650 and an i5 9400. I played God of War 2018 on this PC with everything on ultra at stable 50 native FPS, I played Ragnarok on this PC on medium-high graphics at stable 30 native FPS and 50 with FSR Quality, and I’ve emulated a lot of games and they run perfectly: Metal Gear Solid 4, God of War 1, 2, Chains of Olympus, Ghost of Sparta, Red Dead Redemption 1, Killzone, Call of Duty, etc. Basically, with the right configuration everything has worked well for me, but after playing the God of War Collection emulated on RPCS3, I get to God of War 3 and wow… 20 FPS, sometimes 30. I’ve tried everything. At first it was completely unplayable, everything yellow, sometimes everything white, textures not loading, frames lagging behind horribly. I don’t know how to play it now. I’ve seen that there is a PS4 emulator called shadPS4 but I don’t know anything about it. Any advice to be able to play God of War 3? I’ve given up on the PS3 emulator I have, so I don’t know what to do. I don’t want to skip this game because I really want to play it, but it wouldn’t be hard because I already have the Nordic God of War games configured and I could start them now, but it would feel incomplete. Any idea or help?

The title says it all

Hello. I have a PC with an RTX 2060 and a Ryzen 5 2600, running Ubuntu.

I was wondering, how well could it handle PS3 emulation? The games I am most interested in running are RDR1, MGS Legacy Collection, and Uncharted 2. Possibly also the other Uncharted games and God of War 1-3, but I don't own those games on disc yet.

I see that my processor is listed as a D tier processor on the official spreadsheet, do you think that means these games would be unplayable?

I was wondering, what other emulators could my PC run? It seems as if Duckstation works fine, I was wondering if my PC could handle literally any other emulators?

Im using the Ryubing fork of Ryujinx and tried out The Plucky Squire to test if the game really ran at 30 fps or not. Surprisingly, it was running at a stable 60 fps vsync which was odd since videos on youtube was showing otherwise and another game, Potion Permit, ran at locked 30 fps. Is there a reason for this since I want to mainly use emulators to demo the game's performance before I purchase it on Switch.

I remember back then roms ran smooth as butter, and if I plugged in a controller, it just worked, and it worked great.

mGBA has frame skips despite having high end gaming hardware, and if my wireless controller ever falls asleep, I have to save and restart the whole emulator, completely forget being able to use bluetooth option on my controller.

retroarch for whatever reason needed to reinvent the wheel into a triangle with save file format, as if what we really needed was .srm, and for whatever reason, no save file converters make my saves convert correctly. Why is all this shit so complicated, clunky, and skippy?

I know nothing about emulation. My main goal is to have a system for party games and I want it to have local coop.

I want to start emulating ps2 games but I don't want fully commit to buying everything needed to play on the actual ps2. I know for PCSX2 I need a bios but from what i understand I can just get that elsewhere. What I'm concerned about is how I can upload games onto my emulator if I don't have a ps2 to read the discs. Can I get just a normal disc ready to plug into my pc or do I need something specific, If I get a disc reader will it also work for Xbox discs cause I also kind of want to play some of those. I'm very new to emulation and am having a hard time understanding how to even get everything started so any help is appreciated.

I'm looking for a good emulator to play the xenoblade games heeeeelp please

Guys right now i am in 10th grade and i want to know that should i play online games? Like valorant and CS-2???

So I've never emulated a game before, and honestly have no idea what I'm doing. But I really want to try and play Animal Crossing Wild World and Tomodachi Life without having to sell an arm and a leg.

Is there a specific emulator thingy I should look into for these games? Is it difficult to get an emulator set up? I'm sorry if these are tired questions, I just want to make sure I don't download the wrong thing or anything.

1. A keybind that swaps between the top and bottom screens

2. Gyro emulation using things like mouse and gamepad stuff

3. Upscale of hud elements (especially for kingdom hearts dream drop distance)

4. Easier multiplayer access

5. Streetpass of some kind using wifi

I wanted to let my son play Custom Robo for Gamecube the first time, but my Wii isn't working after not using it for years. I don't have money to get it fixed, so I'm looking for a simple Gamecube emulator that I can use with an Xbox or Switch controller. If you can throw me a link to a Custom Robo ROM, too, I'd really appreciate it!

i want to download a ps4 emulator but every emulator ive seen looks sketchy. any recommendations?

Hi guys,

I have recently had this urge to play return of the king on my pc, is there an emulator I can download so I can do this? Also are emulators safe and won’t bring viruses? I don’t even know where to look to download an emulator, how easy is it for someone who is not good with computers!

Thanks

I'm looking for emulators so that I can play the pokemon series on my laptop, and was wondering which ones are best and safest. Thanks in advance!

So, I sold my PS4 ages ago, alongside most the games, and am wanting to play it again but can't hash out the money for it right now. Anyone of any decent PS4 emulators?
