I used to collect various systems and games but nowadays don’t have much left apart from my Dreamcast stuff. Cost, storage space and just the risk of something becoming unplayable mean emulation is my go to now.

PS1 is probably my most played system, I used ePSXe for years but recently switched to Duckstation and so far so good. Some of my all time favourites are GT2, Future Cop LAPD, Devil Dice, Colin McRae Rally 1/2.

If you want something to play on Dolphin then the GameCube version of Skies of Arcadia is excellent.

I've been using emulation pretty much since I started playing games. It's actually one of the main reasons gaming became my passion (and eventually major money drain).

My favorite thing? I don't have to shuffle different devices to play everything I want - it's even more importent now, since I have a Steam Deck and can have all of them on the go again.

Here's a short list of titles I love that don't show up too often in threads like this one:

  • Tetris DX (GBC / mGBA)
  • Fantasy Golf Pangya (PSP / PPSSPP)
  • Persona 3 Portable (PSP / PPSSPP) - just started NG+ with female protagonist
  • Puzzle Quest - Challenge of the Warlords (PSP / PPSSPP)
  • Ridge Racer 2 (PSP / PPSSPP)
  • Parasite EVE (PSX / DuckStation)
  • Captain Toad Tresure Tracker (Switch / Yuzu)

I'm not going to dump my whole library here but these are fun and rare enough worth mention.

PraiseTheSoup,

Not sure Persona 3 belongs with the others seeing as it just got another rerelease in the form of Persona 3 Reload. Currently playing it on my Series X and it’s great. Unfortunately no female protagonist though.

Other than that, Parasite Eve is one of my personal favorites.

Essence_of_Meh,

I'd agree about P3R if not for the fact that despite remaking the game Atlus still couldn't be bothered to make a definitive edition of P3.

Besides that, you could also argue P3P doesn't really belong here due to being available on Steam but the question was about our favorite games played on an emulator and PSP version is what I'm playing right as I'm typing this :P

Parasite Eve is great, isn't it? I wish we got more RPGs like this set in modern times.

Just finished the entire MegaMan battle network 1-6 gba series on my retroid pocket.

  • The whole Pokémon franchise on gameboy/GBC/GBA/DS…
  • Skullmonkeys on PS1
  • The Crash bandicoot trilogy on PS1
  • Abe’s Odysee on PS1

If you want to play them on an android phone, lemuroid is a great plug and play emulator. If you want to play on a PC, retroarch works well, but I recommend to follow guides on their website to get started.

A short hike. It’s like a super short cosy version of breath of the world’s platforming/exploration

caseyweederman,

Seconded. Nice and chill, with just a touch of coming-of-age parents-aren’t-invincible melancholy.
Using A Short Hike as a jumping off point and following the growing-pains and melancholy threads while maintaining the explore-and-talk aspects, I’d like to recommend Night in the Woods.

Start her on Dark Souls so that nothing she plays after will seem difficult.

jjjalljs,

I got a girlfriend a long time ago to give the game a shot. She had played stuff before- she was playing BioShock on Xbox when we met. The rats by the big drake on the bridge literally made her cry. Felt pretty bad.

(We did eventually finish the game together in co-op, but we’re long since broken up for largely unrelated reasons)

A_Very_Big_Fan,

One of my coworkers at some point told my girlfriend she should go in completely blind when she tried DS1, and I agree with that, but she took it to mean she should under no circumstances allow me to explain the mechanics of the game or the UI. She spent nearly two hours in the Asylum without ever getting to the boss’s fog wall because she wouldn’t let me explain that picking her weapon up didn’t mean she had it equipped. Finally I told her there was a big problem she could easily fix and move on with the game if she’d hear me out, but she still wouldn’t hear any of it, and then 30 seconds later I see her on her phone googling “do you need to use a shield in DS1” 🤦‍♀️

It was really frustrating because DS1 is hands down my favorite game, and I fully expected her to give up at some point but she gave up before she actually got to play the game.

    I play wave race 64 alot it really is such a fantastic game but it’s a very short one, I’ve played it to death. At one point I think I even beat the world record for the Glacier Coast course but I’ve heard that records set on emulators aren’t counted and even if you’re not cheating an emulator run is considered easier than on the real 64.

    I really want another wave race title. I wasn’t a huge fan of the GameCube one. Just such a nostalgia hit. It was the first game I had on my 64 and I played all through Christmas day. Something about the sunset bay and also the training level really brings me right back to 1998 whenever I play it.

    I’m a fan of RPG games so I tend to emulate these games on my phone

    • Pokémon games from all Gameboys
    • Zelda games from Gameboy and SNES
    • Pretty much all final fantasy games
    • Suikoden 1 to 5
    • Mario RPG games
    • Shadow hearts games from the ps2
    • Dragon quest games
    • Personal games up until persona 4
    • Other games suck as Chroni Cross and Trigger, Hrxyz Force, Mother, Lufias, Tales games

    All these games can be played with the touchscreen really.

    zkfcfbzr,

    Which SNES emulator do you use?
