Android Emulators

Post by SamuraiMegas »

I just got a S3. I want to know your favorite emulators to use on an Android device.

pretty much all old school stuff will play fine.

its controls you have to worry about.

you can use the touch pad but its not great for games with precise control.

There are some bluetooth stuff out there that can solve that problem.

here are some android emulators courtesy of fantasy anime.

Yongzh bundle is the older stuff. its no longer official like the site says but they work fine.

just unzip and use the emulator you want.

Same here. I use all the older emulators that were pulled of the market years ago. They are starting to show their age, because sometimes I have to fight them to work with my Bluetooth controllers. I just haven't found any newer emulators that excite me.

NESoid
SNESoid
GENSoid
N64oid and Mupen64 (Some games work better on one or the other)
My Boy! (Hands down the best GBA emulator I could find)
FPse (Rough around the edges, but gets better with every update)

I used to grab the older *oid emulators individually off of SlideMe, but that was ages ago since I keep backups now.

I second all of them, they are the ones I use.

ePSXe is far better than fpse in my experience. I have had zero compatibility issues with it, having played about 30 games with it so far on my Nexus 7. The only problem I've ever had so far were trees looking like squares in Sled Storm. It can also play ecm files without you needing to extract them beforehand, which is unheard of.
