nintendo is fucking up their public image (to the semi-diehard fans at least) so now i'm just waiting for people to make definitive guides on how to pirate nintendo media

@MikeyHillus

fuck it

  • NES/Famicom/Dendy emulation: FCEUX or Mesen
  • SNES emulation: Snes9x or Mesen
  • Game Boy + Color emulation: SameBoy
  • Game Boy Advance emulation: mGBA
  • N64 emulation: P64 seems to have a vulnerability right now, so try using Simple64 or Parallel Launcher
  • GameCube and Wii emulation: Dolphin
  • DS emulation: MelonDS (You can also play it on android) or DeSmuME
  • 3DS emulation: Citra
  • Wii U emulation: Cemu
    • From @nervcorp: nintendo is shutting down online server access for the wii u and the 3ds on march 27th btw - homebrew literally NOW!!!!!! there's not a better time to!!!
  • Switch emulation: Ryujinx
    • Rest in peace, Yuzu
  • I would love to share ROM sites but I really, really don't want them to get taken down
    • From @fearb33k33p3r: if you want to know where to actually GET roms, do not use a big romsite like emuparadise. the more primitive and direct the download, the better.

please comment for anything else i should know!! sharing will only share it with your followers/passerbys but comments can be seen on any post so please do that!! thanks!!

I actually recommend Mesen over FCEUX for modern hardware. It's faster and better, though FCEUX is less intensive on older hardware.

bsnes is better than Snes9x, though with similar caveats to FCEUX.

If you don't mind RetroArch, then Mupen64Plus-Next is the absolute top N64 emulator. simple64 is still considered the best standalone emulator, however. Note that Project64 is actively not recommended by https://emulation.gametechwiki.com , where I am getting all of the information for this from.

mGBA is the top emulator for GBA, but SameBoy is better for GB and GBC emulation.

While not the absolute best, I will bring up DeSmuME as an alternative if you don't need DSi functionality.

suyu has unfortunately been shut down, leaving Ryujinx as the best Switch emulator.

The original Citra fork has been shut down alongside yuzu, but the PabloMK7 fork is still receiving updates and features.

Unless something has changed that I don't know about, Cemu and Dolphin are currently the only viable emulators for the relevant systems.

Since I'm here, I might as well throw in the PS emulators:

DuckStation is the best for PS1.

PCSX2 is the best for PS2.

RPCS 3 is the best and currently only viable PS3 emulator.

PK201 is the best emulator for the PocketStation, though MAME is the next best and is necessary if you wish to play on anything other than Windows.

PPSSPP is currently the recommended PSP emulator.

Finally, Vita3K is the ONLY PS Vita emulator.

I hope this list is helpful!
