Terminology

 

Emulator Definition:

 

An Emulator is a software application that can accurately imitate another program or application such as those that run video games and arcade machines.

 

Rom Definition:

 

A video game rom file is a file that has been dumped onto a computer digitally.

 

System Requirements

 

Windows 95, 98, XP, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 10 or above, Mac/Apple, Apple or Android Mobile Device IOS.

 

Warning !!!

 

Playing video games may cause your system to overheat quickly, depending on your computer and its internal cooling system. Be sure to monitor the temperature of your computer constantly, while playing emulated games, to avoid overheating and damaging your computer. If you notice your computer getting hot, positioning an external fan near the computer, to bring in cool air through the vents, is an easy way to help prevent damage.

 

 

How to Install Roms and Emulators

 

You will need to extract the emulators and roms, after downloading them. Most computers already have an extractor installed but if you are having trouble, download a free version of winRAR<---32 bit version. winRAR<---64 bit version for Windows or, Unrarx for Mac. Once the emulator and rom files are extracted, you will be able to start the emulator and play the games. Emulators for each system are different and have their own interface. After downloading the emulator and roms, extract them to access the files. To start the game, use the top drop down menu to locate the rom file. Here is a video tutorial on how to get and install the Super Nintendo Emulator and Roms. This method will work on all other emulators except the Arcade one.

 

 

How to Install the Arcade Mame Emulator

 

Download the Mame emulator for the operating system you are as well as a few choice arcade games. they need to be extracted, if it has the extension .rar, extract it. The games can be left in zip format. Also, Arcade games require "bios files" . <<<-----click here to download them all. This Bios set was updated on 10-13-2019 along with an updated Mame64 emulator...Move the bios files to the roms folder located within the arcade Mame Emulator Download file structure. Arcade games may have one or more rom files/CHD's missing, although upon this recent update, I was able to get a large number of games to function. Out of around 33,000 roms, most games looked to have all required files. If any issues arise, message me on one of the tutorial videos... Open the Mame emulator after all files are in place and in the file menu click audit all games, Then click Available in the folder menu on the left to view the games.

 

 

Other Info

 

Some roms and emulators may not work on certain operating systems either due to missing files or, compatibility. I stick to the PC mostly and most games work. The Mame emulator for Mac had some problems running games. I will get a better one on my site once I find one, so for arcade games, I would suggest playing them on a windows operating system to ensure that most games will work. If you don't have a windows computer and until I get a better version of Mame for Mac, you can try downloading different Mame emulators from other sites that may work better for certain roms.

 

Controls

 

The controller configuration settings, can be found in the drop down menu, on the emulator window. You should be able to find it under, input or controller config. I recommend obtaining a game pad or gaming controller, to use instead of a keyboard and mouse, for in game controls. PS4 controllers with bluetooth and Xbox 360 usb controllers work well. If you are having trouble using your controller, you may need to download the software for it, so your computer recognizes it.

 

Mobile Devices

 

For the Iphone and Itouch, you will have to jailbreak it, to get Cydia and find a working emulator. Once the emulator is installed, you can SSH the roms, from this site, to the correct file path on your Iphone or Itouch, which can be found on the download page, for the emulator in Cydia. (Example file path for the GBA emulator gpsphone = var/mobile/Media/ROMs/GBA). Search Google to learn how to SSH to your iphone if you don't know how. Roms may need to be extracted before placing them into the file path on the device. For Androids, reverting to earlier dates on ur device will bypass the (update required prompt) allowing you to freely use the emulator.The videos I've posted videos should give you an idea of how to properly setup any emulator, with relative ease.
