I wish I knew what this game is. Possibly Zombies Ate My Neighbors.

Indeed it is, m'darlin. never actually played it myself, but I've got emulators coming out of my well-toned arse so it shouldn't be too tricky to give it a whirl

Let me know if you like it. This was one of those games that I used to want as a kid, but never got. I need to figure out how emulators work.

I'll throw a couple of links at you

You can get your emulators and roms from those (there are others)

One thing you'll need to find yourself are the BIOS files that the emulators need to work. They're unique to each system and are technically illegal to own unless you physically own the machine you're emulating (kinda making the whole endeavour pointless).

Once you have the emulator, the bios files and a playable rom (Game file), a little mucking around in the settings to configure file locations and joypad settings adn you're good to go.

The older systems are easy on the systems, but machines from PS2/Sega saturn need a healthy games-centric system to work (like what mine is).

I'm currently playing Nights into dreams, sega rally and fighters megamix on SSF right now. Retro a-g-go

Thanks Stantz

I think I tried to do this way back, but I was lost lol. I just want NES so hopefully it will be easier

I've got a huge collection of NES and SNES roms with emulators that work pretty well on my home PC. If you want, I can zip it all together and put it up somewhere for you to download. Emulators have come a long way from the days of only NESticle and ZSNES, but it's great to be able to play some of the games that I can't even find used in the video game store near my house.

My only potential problem is how well do you think it would work on a laptop with *shudder* Windows Vista.
