The First Ever Emulator You Remenber

[DorfleFlorp]

ZSNES was my first emulator and is still my preferred snes emulator.

 

[Sfjeov]

Openemu on mac
specifically probably bsnes maybe

Snes9x

Normally i don't care, but i'd highly suggest not using ZSNES, ZSNES has a exploit and bugs that allow roms to be infected and essentially do whatever it wants to your computer.

 

[Nelson2001 Nelson2001]

VirtuaNES for Windows.

Mednaffe it is then.

Man, Zsnes has been dead for years and it's not very accurate. Try Snes9X if you have a potato pc. If not, Mesen is one of the best right now.

I have a super potato 3000.

 

[NardoBoom]

I have a super potato 3000.

It might run Mesen or Ares.

 

[DorfleFlorp]

It might run Mesen or Ares.

Mesen looks alright. It has a linux version that is easier to work with than snes9x or ares.

When I was a kid the family computer was a 10 year old mac by the time I was 8 or so. The only interesting thing it could run was snex9. I remember downloading random ROMs from the internet until I found Chrono Trigger and was blown away by it.

 

[Lowpoly Kenshiro]

For me it was ZSNES. I remember it not working at all when we first set it up and I clicked the savestate button and everything started to work magically! i still love how ZSNES looks today

 

[BubblegumAthena]

iNes for Mac OS 9, I remember my copy came with a few ROMs on it as well and I remember playing SMB and Metroid (badly, cuz I was a very young child) on it.

 

[Ppapeno7135]

For me, it was Meka (the best Sega Master System emulator back in the day).
It ran on DOS, had an amazing and skinnable UI and was just fun and easy to use overall.

 

[HyperTurboFox]

VGBA was my first emulator and definitively a good start to all things emulation.

 

[Dyne]

Nesticle
Loopynes
ZSNES

 

[iisoide]

Probably Project 64 to play Super Mario 64.

 

[resketreke]

It's either Bleem or a forgotten Game Boy emulator on which a friend and I played a Link's Awakening goofy translation/hack from back then (La Lellenda de La Cerda).

 

[Toppis Toppis]

My first was some snes emulator that did find cheats inside emulator and i did use it on android phone

 

[tombola]

I think it was GB or NES but only online Emu, it was something special at that time for me and could not know how is it possible. Wow -Effect

 

[AJC46]

No$ back when it was known as No$gb instead of gba and for the reason one might expect.

to play pokemon because my folks didn't want to get me a Gameboy and pokemon cart at the time.

wanting to play pokemon in some way is what got me into emulation.

 

[thetwaz]

Bleem was the first one I remember, followed by P64. I could get neither of them to work, I think though looking back at my more recent experiences, I simply either got a couple of bad roms or had no idea how to properly make disc images (I was 9, and we still had dial up internet).

 

[Sonicrain]

Nesticles. Not only for its great name but how good it ran at the time

 

[ShirabeAkatsuki]

No$Zoomer

 

[PhrawzT]

NESticle and ZSNES were the first ones I remember
