The First Ever Emulator You Remenber

[starseeker300]

visualboyadvance, the old version. it was old reliable for a while for me, though i only started emulating in high school

 

[NeonKnights]

Konami Collector's Series Castlevania & Contra CD Rom. Next it was MAME to play Donkey Kong after watching "The King of Kong" in 2007. Oh the irony.

 

[ffviiremake]

ZNES.. just thinkin about its gui makes my heart feel warm n fuzzy

also Snes AD plus on cydia, first go with Mario RPG was on a shattered iPod touch in which i had in a Ziploc bag as to not cut my finger

 

[RIK-C-137]

I remember nesticle and genecyst

This came first, though.

 

[Toppis]

Probably it was some emulator in the Play Store, but the first emulator I remember was ZSNES

Yeah ZSNES for me as well, that UI is iconic.

i think i was around 8-9 when i found project64 exists, i don't think i ever used it much but it was the first one i ever found out about. the first one i ever really used was definetly Dolphin though, despite the fact that i already had a WiiU

VisualBoyAdvance, i have some nostalgia for it, i emulated my first rpg game, my first Pokemon game and my first GBA game.

The first emulator that I can remember was NNNesterJ for the NES. Delayed Triangle Channel note release, incompatible with a good amount of Mappers, like the ones used for Kirby's Adventure's explosions. But I played Super Mario Bros. hacks that don't work with newer emulators on it.

 

[Spoopz]

Probably GBA4ios. Remember my friend downloaded it onto my old ass iphone 5 and was like "oh wow its that easy huh"
then that broke and i had to move to happy chick
i had to go though hoops and hurdles just to play roms on my iphone now you can just get them from the appstore its wild

 

[AxeHammer]

The first one i remember using was some GBA emulator for mobile i got from the google play store, it came pre-packaged with a bunch of roms. I have many fond memories of playing mega man battle network, pokemon leaf green and f-zero gp-legend from that summer.

Another one i remember using a lot back then was a ps1 emulator that i had on my phone as well, i don't remember which one it was but what i do remember is playing final fantasy vii and lsd dream emulator during breaks while i was in seventh grade.

 

[Kryon_340]

ZSNES, god i still love that UI...

 

[King Koopa's iconKing Koopa]

ZSNES I think

 

[Max]

I remember using Meboy on my blackberry until the battery swelled up lol

 

[SuperOkay]

No$GB. My school friends and I all had it on floppy disks we'd bring to computer lab and trade/battle Pokemon, play multiplayer Tetris and whathaveyou.

[Drewski90]

I remember the zsnes from when emulation was new to me when i was a kid

 

[Soulless Emperor]

My first emulator was snemulDS on one of my old R4's that I lost when I was around 12 years old. I had played the snes games on my r4 for a while until I lost it. Then 4 years later, I started using Zsnes as it's one of my first emulators I tried on my old laptop when I was 16 at the time I tried playing snes games on my old laptop.

My First Emulator was 《MyBoy!》 (GBA Emulator) played lots of 《Boktai》, 《Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow》 (Best Castlevania series btw) and 《Pokémon》 back in the day.

I remember I specifically bought the 《Castlevania Advance Collection》 on my Switch JUST to play 《Aria Of Sorrow》.

Played some 《Drill Dozer》, Which is very underrated and NEEDS A comeback.

《Boktai》 needs a comeback too, Those games and 《Lunar Knights》 were pretty Revolutionary for the "SUNLIGHT!!" mechanic, and I'm so glad you can get the 《Gun de Sol》 in 《Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots》 (also an Underrated Movie- *ahem!* -Game)

I wish Games weren't afraid of being unique and "Free", Like 《Devil May Cry》 (I like DMC2 and DmC: DMC, Bite me!), and 《Metal Gear/Solid/Rising: Revengence/AC!D》, if it wasn't for the Movie 《The Great Escape》, 《Hideo Kojima》 wouldn't have made All these Awesome Games (No i didn't forget about 《Policenauts》, it needs more recognition)

Sorry for the long rant of a Reply, lulz
