Can i really play PlayStation, gamecube and N64 games on my computer?

How? Plus what is this PSX i hear so much about? I really want a PS emulator so can anyone recommend one and can i download roms in romulation. Also, why are they in 2 discs+.Thanks.

epsxe is probably the best playstation emulator, some of the ps games are multi-disc

Is there a ps2 emulator and can i play ps1 games on it?

Wait, do i need to have the ps1 disc in my computer to play it and if so why are there ps1 roms on romulation.

yes, there is a PS2 emulator, but it can't play PSX (PSX = original playstation and PSOne) games. You don't need a disc in your computer, but thats one way of playing them.

Emulators.I googled all of mine up.Here are what I used..epsxe-playstation 1 emulator.pcsx2-ps2 emulator.Project64 (pj64)-n64 emulator.Dolphin-gamecube/wii emulator.Each one works differently to configure-best bet is to download them-one at a time, and ask for help here...But one at a time-figure one out before messing about with another-otherwise you'll do your head in XDAs for multi-disc-some games are THAT big, playstation 1 and ps2 may occasionally need 2 disc...Well not so much ps2-only devil may cry 2 does.For ps1 and ps2-you can use your real disc-or even burnt ones.Gamecube/wii requires the use of iso's-the contents of a disc as a file-as not many computers can read a gamecube/wii disc as they aren't dvd's...it's a special nintendo optical disc format.Well good luck :)

Hey thanks mds64. Exactly what i was after.

Several PSX games are up to 4 discs.

duzke · #6Hey thanks mds64. Exactly what i was after.

No worries...Also-I may have mis-spelt the gamecube emulator-it might be "dolwin" so try the 2 in google..."gamecube emulator" is what helped me out :)Also the emulators may or may not have plugins (which alters how the game looks, sounds and plays)...All but epsxe comes with the needed plugins-but may need to be set.But to be safe-do as I did-get one running before trying another type-and keep in mind the same config may not let every game work.I had to change the settings on pcsx2 a few times just to get decent speed for grand theft auto...(tip-for anything past n64 games I hope your pc has a bit of graphic power-or else it's gonna run slow or not at all)

If you have any questions about PJ64 you can ask me, my name might still be in the 'about' box (TrotterW) :D

Can someone post a link to a .rar file that has both cd's for MGS on PS1. Thanks.

Yer, but they cost points :(. Nah, im just kidding, i was about to anyway. One more thing: when i download a nes game on romulation there are about 50,000 (over exaggerated) files on there. Does it matter what i use or can i use any if theyre in the same .rar file?

"Use"?
Emulator or roms?

There are games with different titles i guess e.g. in super mario bros 2 there are some that say "fucked up bros 2" or something. Are these mods of the game or something and should i put them into my flashcard?

Turn them into iso's, I have a 16gb flash drive and all three final fantasy 7 disc only come upto 2gb!

mods, translations, all kinds. Generally only retro consoles have multiple copies of the rom. the one with (!) is the confirmed good one
