Remember that game you couldn’t finish as a kid? Or the one your neighbor wouldn’t let you borrow? Emulation brings those moments back—not polished, not reimagined, just as they were, weird translations and all.

I just finished writing a deep-dive on the emotional, cultural, and technical side of emulation. It’s not just nostalgia—it’s digital preservation, curiosity, and sometimes, rebellion. From save states to accessibility to the weird joy of booting up a forgotten Japanese rhythm game, this piece explores why emulation still matters more than most people realize.

If you’ve ever loaded up a ROM just to feel something, I think this’ll resonate with you.

Would love to hear how others got into emulation, what you're playing, and what it means to you now.

Hey everyone!

If you’ve been following the emulation scene lately, you probably already know that things have taken a turn for the worse. Nintendo’s recent legal actions have shut down some of the biggest names in Switch and 3DS emulation—Yuzu, Ryujinx, and Citra—along with their forks. While Nintendo claims this is a necessary move to combat piracy, the takedowns have left many gamers wondering:

Is emulation a threat to intellectual property, or is it the only way to preserve gaming history?

I just published an in-depth article that dives into this very question:

Nintendo vs. Emulation: Can Copyright and Game Preservation Coexist?

Created by Exzap (and aided by Peter Gov), it is the second Wii U emulator to be available to the public but the first to emulate commercial games. It can decrypt Wii U images that use the Wud format but also the RPS or RPL files. Internal resolution can be up to 1920 x 1080 depending on the game (and beyond with graphic packs). Currently, the DRC (GamePad), the Pro controller and the conventional controller are emulated. Wiimotes are also emulated (including native support). Keyboard inputs and USB controllers as input devices are also supported. The GamePad tactile input can be controlled with a left mouse click. The Gyro functionality is emulated with limitations and can be controlled via the right mouse button. This version is only compatible for Windows x64 (from Windows 7) with an OpenGL 4.1 (or higher) or Vulkan graphics card and it will be necessary to have 4 to 8 GB of RAM to make it work.

Gameboy Color emulator writes for Windows and Android.

It is an N64 emulator written in Rust by Logan McNaughton (single64) and some portions of which come from mupen64plus and/or ares.



The objectives in summary are:
– Performance. The author wants to be able to use this emulator on his laptop.
– Easy to use.
– Easy to work with. Dynamic recompilers perform well, but they are very difficult to read and understand. This emulator will only have interpreters for the CPU and RSP. In addition, it is written entirely in Rust (outside Parallel-RDP), a modern programming language whose number of users continues to grow. The author tried to avoid the use of macros, which can reduce the repetitiveness of the code, but also its readability.

The changes are:

The naming convention for save files changed in this version. This means that the emulator won’t find saves that previously existed. You'll need to go into the save file folder and rename your save file to the...
