well personally, i like SNES9X and ZSNES. I only like ZSNES to rip sprites and the usual. Now heres an idea, change the SNES9x one to something normal, or i lock this topic

your an idiot. i gots n64(the last acceptable nintendo console) snes(the good console!). i still have my little ole ps1, but it just sits there. my original gameboy, gbc and now gba. the only other console worth emulating is nes. or maybe genesis evey once and a while....but only for sonic
pointless statistics:(proving gc isn't worth emulating.)
Sales figures for April 1st to 7th in Japan:(number of console sold)
PS2------------80,179
Game cube----15,068
PS1--------------3,959
Dreamcast------3,427
Xbox-------------2,179(silly microsoft...)
and those are from when PS2 was still twice the price of gc...
and as for totals (as of may 22nd...)
PS2 30.0 - 31.0 million
GC 4.3 - 4.6 million
XBox 2.2 - 2.5 million(once again, silly microsoft....)

*Beyonder*: What have you got against the GCN?
And none of the latest consoles are worth emulating ATM. You need an incredibly fast computer _and_ there hasn't been enough time for emulators to be have been done properly yet. Like ZSNES. Wait a few years, emulators will be better optimized and more complete, and computers will be faster and cheaper. _Then_ get emulators for them. Or, just save up and by the actual consoles, which will work better than any emulator will for a long time. Basically the only advantages of emulators (apart from the freeness...) are Save States (I LOV0R THEM!) and you can rip sprites using them (not much use with the newest consoles, heh).
Back to the topic...
I can't see why anyone would like Snes9X better than ZSNES. It's slower and has less features. And there are some games that only ZSNES can emulate, but there are no games that only Snes9X can emulate.[/b]

I personally prefer ZSNES but that's just me (and from what I hear there are no PS2 emulators that can play commercial games as of yet) Although I think some of this is mentioned else where in the forums.... Oh well ^_^
