Emulation (lemmy.world)

What are your favourite games to relive your nostalgia on what emulator? I used to play the hell out of Monkeyball on gamecube so I enjoy using Dolphin for that or Mario Sunshine.

Emulation has given me a wide backlog of great titles to play in the midst of "AAA" sludge.

What's your impression on emulation? What is your favourite thing about it?

Cheers!

I love the mods and graphical upgrades. For example, the "FFT Complete" hack on PSX is still my preferred way to play Final Fantasy Tactics, and I can get a buttery-smooth 60fps on Link's Awakening (2019).

Lately I've also been dabbling into CRT filters with mixed success. Every now and then I'll get the nostalgia buzz, but a lot of the time I feel like I'm just looking at a game with visible scanlines. I've heard it's better on 4K displays though, and I don't have regular access to one.
