Emulator or console???

[killsonic]

What do you play?

Personally I play console for everything except RPGs—save states!

I play both...But it's kinda easy to play on emulator.

I play the consoles. Although I have bought a few Virtual Console games for systems I don't own, I prefer playing games on the original systems with the original controllers, on a TV screen and not a computer monitor. Nothing beats the real thing.

Even better: get a USB adaptor for your original SNES controller.

Where can you get one from? I'm downloading an emulator tonight and that would be awesome!

Seems you can get a Super SmartJoy here, which is what i use- no drivers necessary: just plug in, assign the buttons in you emulator's menu and play. Better get in there quick though because i dont think they make them anymore and they are getting quite hard to find. Bare in mind its £18, i payed a similar amount for mine though and dont regret it.

Consoles all the way ! ! !

I used to play roms a lot but being able to save anywhere and speed up the game by holding a button wrecks it for me. I have no self control and no matter how hard i try i still do it. So im buying a NTSC system and a whole lot of NTSC games from overseas, because so many good games are not available here in AUS in PAL! Chrono Trigger here i come !
