ROMS are basically the cartridge or disc. Once you downloaded both your emulator and room all you have to do is open your emulator (install it if needed) and run the emulator application on your PC and just go where it says open ROM and select the game you want and just play it. You can also reassign the keyboards for the controllers. You can easily emulate anything from N64 & PS1 and older. Newest consoles from PS2 and above are more complicated except for GBA, PSP and NDS.

skyfire Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Think of emulator is like tricking the game or application to think that they are running on the platform which is their intended running platform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyfire Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 It took me a long time to know about it. But once I learned more about porting arcade game things started to make sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
