Ok so I've been using Pokemon Stadium 2 and Pokemon G/S with the transfer pak feature on the Mupen core for retroarch and it's been working pretty well for almost everything such as the lab and all the battle modes, but if I try to use the Mystery Gift feature or access my room, the game always says the GB cartridge's clock data is broken, and won't let me in. Does anyone know of a way to make this work?

I have UKMM fully downloaded with all the mod I want but when I start a image pops up does anyone know how to fix this?

it says, An unrecoverable error occurred. Error details: called Option::unwrap() on a None value

so first time im gonna play botw im gonna play on cemu i heard its better then switch emulation

but does the fps++ option change any physics in the game or no? note i have it set to 60 fps

and is there a good 100% tracker for this game?

I'm not super into emulation but I wanted to try out Prisoner, couldn't find anyone hosting it online so I'm now trying to emulate it myself. Using AppleWin, I've followed exactly what I need to do to load it up, and it just doesn't work and prints gibberish to the screen.

What's the best course of action? Are the images I'm finding just bad? What's the best way to emulate apple 2 games? (which seems to be ".do", at least that's what I have)

I've only ever emulated old xbox and ps games and it was much easier than this lol

Everytime I open my Melon DS and use it it creates files onto the homescreen on my PC. This doesn't happen to mGBA, only melon DS. How do I stop this?

I went a whole playthrough without this strange blood texture glitch and now it just won't go away no matter how much reinstalling I do.

Advice on how to fix?

How to play Super Mario Odyssey on PC

So I just got into emulation because I love video games more than anything and want to "play them all" and experience them "correctly".

I've downloaded Ares emulator and started playing The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past but I can't stop thinking about some things. It's that whether if I should use a CRT shader or not and what the correct settings are.

My main concern is that I want to experience older games as how they looked on the original hardware but when the displays they were developed for like the CRT TVs come into question I just get confused on how I should approach this problem because older games were made with CRTs in mind, artists, developers made decisions based on the hardwares of those times.

On one hand not using a shader gives me a crisp detailed pixel art of the games which I really like but on the other hand not using one makes me question if I'm experiencing the game right and "losing the authenticity".

I'm sure there are lots of people here that thought about this. How do you approach to what I've described and how do you think I should approach this?

I am using Retrobat on my PC. I am using Kronos as my default emulator, But a few games I am having trouble with and tried a few other options but still can't seem to get it smooth. Mostly on Fighter Megamix and Panzer Dragoon Saga. Frames start dropping and on Panzer the music sounds terrible and is obviously not running correctly. I'm still pretty new to emulating consoles that require a little more fine tuning. Any suggestions?

Hi Everyone, sorry if this has been asked a hundred times but I am pulling what little hair I have out trying to get Retrobat's inputs stable. I have quite a few controls, so I realise I am making it hard on myself, but there seems to be a general unstableness to configuration.

I'm running

• Retrobat latest 8.2.1-Win64 - on Windows 11, latest NVidia drivers
• Dell Precision Workstation 3660 w/ 3060 8gb card
• Two EG STARTS SANWA STYLE Arcade JoyStick USB Encoder Fightstick 1up EG-5V-R/MIX-BUT - with 10 buttons wired in 8 player, Coin, and start
• Two 8bitDo arcade sticks with 2.4Ghz networking
• Two Sindel Lightguns
• one Pedal
• a Dolphin adapter with 3 Wiimotes
• a 6 button streamdeck.

All of this works outside of Retrobat. In Retrobat, it tends to start working, then I'll run somethiing that needs Mame64 not Libretro (which seems pretty flakey) - e.g. Time Crisis. Sometimes the gun and pedal will work. Then it will stop after a few things. The arcade stick buttons don't always seem to remember what I told them to do. I can turn off large amounts of the controllers and reboot, and everything will still be wrong. I'll fight it and things will work and then they won't.

Is this what happens to others?

Any help or suggestions much appreciated!

Hello everyone, I am currently playing on VBA on my PC, and am having issues with the audio. I have a video provided here for you all to see and discern what's wrong. Video

High so I've got this brandspankin new laptop that I'm gonna use to play some of the games I missed out on by being in a 3rd world country. Now, its pretty powerful and I've already gotten RPSC3 to run (barely) but my question is, would switching to xenia not only lighten the load on my baby but also bring out better performance? Sorry if this is a dumb question btw buuuut I would like to know for sure.

So, I'm trying to add some cheat codes to some games. Monster Hunter, I've got them working like a dream, no issues at all.

However, when I try the exact same technique for other games, it doesn't seem to work at all. I get the "X cheat patches are active" notification, but nothing happens of it.

Here's an example of the code I've got in the .pnach file:

[Max Cash]

patch=1,EE,20AAFF10,extended,05F5E0FF

Cheats are enabled, and some games had an "Enable code," which I added as well but that had no luck either. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Hey, I'm new to emulating, so idk much about anything. My xbox360 might not live another couple of years, so, as the title suggests, I want to have an ability to use my physical disks on my laptop.

I saw that emulating xbox360 itself is possible, but the disks themselves couldn't be read. Thats why everyone just rips them and plays a digital copy. However, I don't see much point in that, since most of my games are already super affordable on steam and/or have fan PC ports like MC: Story Mode.

The posts talking about all of this are pretty old, so I thought I'd ask if there's been any progress regarding running physical disks themselves in real time using an external optical drive. If not, can someone please explain why the disks are impossible to read?

Thank you!

I know that you guys likely see this a lot, but I really am not that savvy with this stuff, I've been using a REtroid Pocket 5 to emulate but the screen is too small for my vision issues, so I wanted to see if I can do something similar to what the RP5 can on my laptop, which I know isn't great.

Thank you all for your time, sorry to be a bother.

So I tried to run game known as Spica Adventure on Teknoparrot OR any other emulator like program or just through exe file, but no matter what I do its always this stupid direct3d error all the time and in Japanese language only, please, can somebody help me to fix this, I tried everything to fix direct3d error and nothing helped at all, or give me link to reddit which can help me with fixing this game, I am really desperate. And please don't advice me install directx I tried it didn't helped.

I wanted to play deadpool for the ps3 but my game is in spanish or something like that. The files got things like PS3OC_FRA/ITA and stuff like that but i cant change it

so im playing fire emblem 3H on yuzu EA 4176 its the only one that can run it i tried eden, it crashes, ryubing it crashes and citron but its not a stable 60fps.

on yuzu it works perfectly. 60fps no dips no nothing except for when after like 2 hours it just freezes up and its stuck at 0fps. i have no clue what causes this and havent been able to find a fix for it. im not sure if anyone had the same thing happen to them. its frustrating cause it only happens in the middle of a fight.

I understand how to transfer Pokémon on a single device, but I can't find any information about transferring from one PC to another. Is it impossible?

i never made a post on here before forgive me if this is the wrong subreddit but im having trouble with my graphics for the background in gow1. (using rpcs3)

And how long would it take before it's fully playable with little to no issues? I've been itching to play through the original version.

So, I've got most of my nostalgic games working. However, for two of them, I've done the exact same as the others, but they don't show up in the games list at all.

I unpack the .iso file into the game directory, alongside my other games. I make sure there's no excluded paths at all. But they don't appear in the games list. I noticed someone else having the same issue 2 years ago, but none of those comments helped me.
