Who uses emulators and do you know what an emulator is well then heres what it is

An emulators like a free game system and usually most emulators have cheat codes with the games the main emulators you can get are for old game systems such as the nes and the nintendo 64 even the ps2 but the games for the ps2 and stuff are sometimes harder to find post about emulators and stuff here if you want to.

Pshhh I Don't Use Emulators! *Cough Cough* Lol, But If I DID, then I would have a DS Emulator, and an N64 Emulator, but this is all hypothetically speaking of course. :)

Well, since I use my parents' computer, I can't download any emulators, until once I get my laptop. I played 3 free emulators, vNES, which is a NES emulator & also an unnamed Java Game Boy emulator. (The GB Emulator sucks because it has no sound. >_<) The third one is another unnamed Java Master System/Game Gear emulator. (The sound sucks, it gets out of sync once you play it & it sounds slightly garbled, too.)

I have used an emulator before, (of games that I already own of course, otherwise it would be illegal) and it was OK, not the greatest, much better on the console.

There is an emulator of the Wii which can be made into HD so you can see what Wii HD would look like.

Since we are talking about borderline illegal activity here, I'll throw out that it IS legal to download the ROM of a game you already own in its original form. So...I'll just, ahem, ASSUME that you all are downloading only the games you have already, *cough*, hehe...
An emulator, however, is perfectly legal to have; it's just the ROMs that are iffy...

Lol That's true, some of them have some bugs that happen when they are copied on. They do have DS cartridges that you can insert a memory card and play ROMs on the DS. But with the Emulator, you can get things that aren't out in English yet... (Wait, I mean, you can get things that aren't out in English that you ALREADY OWN, *COUGH COUGH*)

Well....the last thing is not illegal in Mexico. And that thing where you download ROMs to play them on the DS is called TTDS, and it's really awesome. XD

I personally download ROMs, ISOs and custom firmware to my heart's content, but having a Mexican heart, I don't feel that it's illegal(even though I know it is). I was raised in a culture where pirated DVDs, games and music are totally natural and whatnot, but sometimes I'm afraid that now that I'm living in Gringo-land A.K.A. United States of America, the repercussions will finally catch up to me. :/

On a side note, if you have a PSP, you should get CFW, having emulators and ISOs on it is GREAT!
Just remember this, when you see her on the street.
