There are 3 main things you need in order to emulate decently PS2
CPU with instruction setSS2 (If you have SSS3 or SS4.1 even better)
CPU Single-threaded performance
Graphics card with dx9 and pixel shader 2.0 support (dx10 or dx11 is even better)

If you want to emulate most games at 60fps get a desktop desu

It there an an already set up amiga emulator image ready to play floating around anywhere? Trying to set that shit up is a bitch and a half.

So far i only have 5 games for it. What are some good games I should try?

Games I have:
NCAA basketball
Mortal Kombat 3
NHL Stanley Cup
Tetris 2
Battleclash

Also my second controller doesnt work, so ill have to replace that. . .

You've got to play the classics:
Super Mario World
Super Metroid
The Legend of Zelda: A Link To the Past
Kirby Superstar
Donkey Kong Country

And others:
If you like fighting games, Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter 2 are on SNES. They might be better on other consoles, though.
Zombies Ate My Neighbors
F-Zero
Super Star Wars
Battletoads
Megaman X

I'd like to start by saying sonic 3 has the best soundtrack of any game from the 16 bit era besides streets of rage

MJ quit before the child abuse accusations began, he didn't like the way his voice sounded when he sampled it on the Yamaha's sound chip.

Posting again because I never got an answer, but where should I start with Wolfendoom?

I tried Astrostein, it's prologue level specifically, but I can't get music. I then realize these are from the late 90's, so I guess that's why.

This is just my opinion and sorry to be of little help but PAL sucks ass 99% of the time I had to restart my collection before I had heaps of games, It happens to people used to PAL and then discover what they've been playing there whole lives was the shit format nobody wants :D Awesome game and art too btw

Which one is considered the best to play first?

>>2881572

The plots seem fairly independent from one another, so I guess it doesn't really matter where you start with the series. The gameplay elements are also generally the same, including the selection of spells and equipment available. You're more or less just exploring different environments in each game.

KF1 (Japan) is more of a dungeon crawler, and comparatively short. KF2 (KF1 outside of Japan) takes place in an isolated island region. You spend a fair bit of time exploring underground labyrinths, but occasionally explore the outside of the island or various above-ground villages. KF3 (or KF2 outside of Japan) seems to take place mostly above ground, although there are a few dungeons to explore.

>>2881568
Are the PS1 games worth playing? I love the concept and the art style, but it seems to run at a low FPS

Not sure bro, that a 64K CMOS Chip from Fujistu that you can easily order. I checked my copy and it's the same as on bootgod. Here's a pic for reference. Gut feeling would be yes.

>>2880936
The one with the big circle is a Fujitsu SRAM, and the other one is a mask rom (either manufactured by Nintendo or subcontracted out, it's normal for it to not have a manufacturer label). Date codes are 1990 but Mega Man was popular enough that it probably got multiple print runs, so it's probably legit.

>>2881015

i agree with this post here.

This. The fact that neither side wants to take full responsibility for the 32X is a sign that SoA were responsible for as many fuckups as SoJ were.

shit tier console, made by a shit tier company, fails. shocking

Something with a decent layout (aka not American-styled) like Sega or Vewlix. Something with decent buttons like Sanwa switches.

Well I was looking at the HORI Real Arcade Pro.V Kai Fighting Stick which is working on a pc according to amazon.
Would that be good enough to start with, it has Sanwa switches and has a Vewlix Layout.

I've never been able to find this type of converter reasonably priced. I just ended up counting my loss and trashing my old gamepads.

On the plus side, generic USB gamepads should be very inexpensive these days. You can also buy a PlayStation-to-USB adapter so you can use your PS1/2 controllers with your computer. The ones I've purchased worked fairly well, but may not last longer than a year.

fancy 15pin pads like that essentially fall into 1 of 3 categories:

generic - not really multi-button, just standard 4axis+4button with some of the buttons doubled up. would need a generic active usb adaptor, but dont expect more than 4 buttons.

dual input - natively supports usb with a passive adapter, the chip in pad does the work. i believe some microsoft and logitechs can do this

propriety - uses an improvised digital protocol for multi-button thru 15pin, required a driver that probably only works for old versions of windows. requires a specialized active adapter - if it exists and even then its probably a fan made project. i believe some of the early microsoft sticks have these?

>>2878501
This. You really may as well trash it at this point. It isn't worth the hassle
