- Arcade Coin-Ops (MAME)

- Lasergame Coin-Ops (Daphne)

- Atari VCS/2600 (Stella)

- Coleco Vision (ColEm)

- IntelliVision (Bliss)

- Nintendo NES/Famicom (Higan)

- Nintendo SNES/SuperFamicom (Higan)

- Sega Master System (Fusion)

- Sega MegaDrive/Genesis (Fusion)

- Sony PlayStation (ePSXe)

- Sinclair ZX Spectrum (ZXSpin)

- Commodore Vic20 (WinVice)

- Commodore 64 (WinVice)

Which reminds me...It may be time to start looking for emulator updates.    :)   Mr Austin recently did a few videos for Top 10 emulators for 2017 here and here. Well worth a look I say.

I have other stuff configured, but it's mostly to help others in troubleshooting.

I wish I had a good enough rig for PS2, but ah well.

You guys actually have a few systems I never bothered to set up yet.  PSP, Nintendo DS (not mentioned though I know it's out there), PlayStation 2 (same), Wii.(Xbox?).  But I went and added systems nobody really ever wants to play because I was OCD on making sure I had everything.  Channel F, Casio Loopy, etc.  There's other systems too I meant to add but never got around to, like Dreamcast, Saturn, PC-Engine CD, 3DO.  I'm trying to remember what the most recent thing was.  I think it was either GameCube, or Model3.  I don't even have ScummVM or zMachine stuff yet.

I just checked out my emulator list, and I forgot GameCube and NDS, my bad. I also forgot to add 32x, Triiforce, Wonderswan, Colecovision, INTV and a half working Type X which probably won't make the conversion.

Yeah, like I said.. a bit behind on the scene.  :)

Wow, just WOW! :D

 

I think I need to ask you the next question... how many games (roughly) do you have for each of those systems? Do you use gamebases, or did you cherrypick a selection of titles for each? Because with so many systems emulated, the total number of games might be astronomical!

I've never counted total games, but all of my systems are complete romsets, except for the CD-image based systems.  Those are cherry-picked.  And SegaCD has another entry in the list that I've set up to use as a direct boot off of my CD drive, so I can play all the legit owned games in their original media.  I was going to do the same thing for PSX, but never figured out how to get it to look for data on the CD drive.. the emulator only seemed to want to read images off the hard drive.

EDIT - A lot of the computer systems use GameBase, but the other's are all using dedicated emulators or MESS.

Makes sense! My collection follows a different approach, all my games are cherry-picked, averaging ~30-40 per system. I keep it small so that we don't get overwhelmed, or never get past games starting with 'A' :D

I've got a few games from each system I typically play.  A select bunch of favorites.  I typically only play those.  But it's nice to have a full collection to try something new.  With RetroAchievments now a thing, it's even more fun to try and experience new games!

I have complete sets as well. Love having every game because you never know when someone is going to come over and ask if you have Game XYZ.

However my Favorites List is hand-crafted for instant goodness!

To answer the original post correctly I have most systems running under Mednafen. I really like the emulator and it runs everything I throw at it well. Best Virtual Boy Emulator right now that I have found. :)

EMULATED SYSTEMS:

 - MAME

 - Atari 2600

 - Atari 5200

 - Atari 7800

 - Atari 400/800

 - Atari Lynx

 - Intellivision

 - ColecoVision

 - Commodore64

 - TI99 4/a

 - Nintendo NES

 - Super Nintendo

 - Nintendo Virtual Boy

 - Gameboy

 - Gameboy Color

 - Gameboy Advance

 - Nintendo64 (buggy and not worth it IMO)

 - Sega Master System

 - Sega Genesis

 - Sega CD

 - Sega 32x

 - Sega Game Gear

 - Turbo Grafx-16

 - Neo Geo Pocket Color

 - Sony Playstation

 - Sony Playstation Portable (PSP)

 - Windows games like my GOG collection (easy to set up shortcuts into a PC GAME folder and run them)

IN THE WORKS:

 - Panasonic 3DO

 - Mattel LED Handhelds (YES THIS IS A THING!!)

 - Nintendo Game & Watch series

 - Nintendo Gamecube

The ds, 5200 and Saturn can be buggers. Finally found successful setup for 5200 if you get stuck. Also got DS running, although desmume sadly doesn't support different Windows per display else it would be blinding! Saturn.... Yuck
