Emulation
GameStone Emulator Recommendations
All Emulator links listed in this section are Microsoft Windows based emulators and have been tested with Windows XP, if you have an older OS they may or may not work. Some of the emulator links also contain other OS releases, ie.. Apple Mac, BeOS, Linux etc... I have not tested any of these as I don't have these systems. There are other emulators available for the various systems but these are the only ones I have tested and work fine.
This section also includes guides to get the more complex emulators working.
