Emulating Games is Amazing and You Should be Doing it

Hope this video is helpful to people. And yes. There was a noticeable Genesis bias in this video. What of it?

I certainly don't know everything there is to know about emulation. In fact, I learned some new things in the process of making this video. If there's anything I got wrong or forgot to mention, please let me know in the comments.

One thing I did forget is it's usually a good idea to check out romhacking(dot)net when playing anything on a cartridge. There's usually good enhancement hacks out there. I've included that and some easy to use patchers in the links below.

I would also like to give some props to good official emulation, what little of it there is. Xbox has done an awesome job providing great ways to play classic games with their backward compatibility stuff. They provide the kinds of enhances you never see in official emulation. And you can even use the original discs. Most of the time, the best way to play old Xbox stuff is on the consoles. Which is how it should be.

Also that recent TMNT Cowabunga Collection is by far the best classic game collection I've ever seen. That's the kind of thing old games deserve. I was really blown away by that.

I guess it is worth mention that Switch emulation is a thing. But I have yet to look into it and don't know how far along those are. From what I can tell, you can't do things like enhance frame rates and stuff, which is what I'm really after.

Here's all the links. Some in the comments have informed me that MelonDS is a better DS emulator these days. So try that as well.
