Emulators

I just downloaded pokemon red and a game boy emulator but cant decide whether to pick bulbasaur or squirtle

where can i download pokemon emulatorS?
where can i download this gameboy emulator?
 
I remember I used to always try and collect three magnet balloons to try and get the strongest magnet.

The magnet is fecking useless.

You have to use it correctly. I think you have to hold on to the button until it locks on to someone and then let go instead of just tapping it. It actually works very well once you actually lock on to a target.
 
too late I went for bulbasuar

Oh you fool! Even Charmander would've been a good choice because Brock and Misty's Pokémon are resistant to fire so it would force you to level up even further which makes the rest of the game a breeze.

Now you're going to have an easy time at first and get your arse kicked later on.

I'm up to the safari zone and havn't struggled/died once.

I got lucky and caught some very decent rare pokemon early on like as Abra and Pikachu and now they are beasts.

Your probably right about Charmander in the long run simply because I like to have a selection of different types and it is difficult to find a decent fire type or a decent flyer.

where can i download this gameboy emulator?

I'd send you the link to mine but I am on mac and its probably different.

Just search google for a gameboy emulator and download it, you have to download the games separately and load them through the gameboy.

Cancel all your plans because I have barely moved since downloading this game a few days ago.

Enjoy.

There's loads of Pidgeys early on to be your flyers. But yes it's definitely hard to get a proper fire type if you don't pick Charmander. I recommend getting the Eevee from the north entrance of the Celadon mansion and then buying a fire stone from the department store. Then use them to get a Flareon.

Then again if you're playing blue I think the grassy areas near the entrance to Diglett's cave near Vermillion have Vulpixes. They have Growliths in Red which are badass but Take Down is a suicide maneuver.
 
I'm really struggling to get this to work. Is there a simple step by step guide anywhere? I remember I had a Pokemon emulator a while back, but I could have sworn that was just a simple download a program and run jobbie.

I downloaded ePSXe, and decorativeed sent me a PM with a bios in which I copied to the bios folder, but when trying to config it, it didn't come up.
 
You've tried going into the config menu > bios > select bios file, then locating that file, right?

Visual Boy Advance runs Gameboy, Gameboy Color, and Gameboy Advance roms. Maybe that's the one you're thinking of.

Ok perhaps I have done it right. Where can I download games from?

Yeah that's the one I was using! Is it more basic than ePSXe?

I have an evee turned it to flareon but its only just come good, taught it fire blast need to train it up a bit and it will be a beast.

Magaged to catch the elusive articuno aswell which solved my flying problem.

Wish there was somewhere decent i could train up before taking on the elite 4, need to improove them stats.
 
I've never used ePSXe. For VBA you just go into the File menu and click Load and browse for the rom file for the game. About as intuitive as any other Windows program.

Where's a good site to download VBA from because everyone I've tried so far has attempted to get me to fill out a survey and then proceeded to give me a virus?
 
Hmmm I'm not sure, haven't used emulators for years. I think CoolROM was a good site.

Cheers Olly good site.


Downloaded Pokemon Fire Red, worked fine until past start up scenes, but then said "The 1M sub-circuit board is not installed". Any ideas anyone?
 
I never played it. Don't actually know what kind of game it is. Thought it was a kids cartoon spin-off.
 
I see. I've just read a bit about it and it looks like by the time the games were released in English, the cartoons had started to be show here too, hence my obvious confusion.

I've only seen a few screen shots from the games and they don't give much away about what you are supposed to do in them. Maybe you have to be of a certain age and grown up with them to enjoy them properly. I read a bit about the gameplay and managed to be bored and confused in equal measure.

It's an RPG but instead of leveling yourself up you level up your pets and make them fight each other.

Essentially it's a highly addicting cockfighting/dogfighting RPG.
 
Well you start off the game by picking one Pokemon. Then you make your way through towns/cities in the game. Each city has a gym, with a gym leader you have to beat (using your Pokemon) and you get a badge for defeating each one. Each gym leader gets tougher as the game goes on, so you have to make your Pokemon tougher by battling wild Pokemon or other Pokemon trainers that you meet as you go. At the end you have to battle the Elite Four (Which are tougher than the gym leaders).

Also as you go along you have to fill the Pokedex that a professor gives you. Do this by capturing all the Pokemon on the game. In the latest games there were around 500. You can use any of the Pokemon you catch as part of your group of six Pokemon that you take around with you.

There's also a lot of other little things to do in the games, but those are the main two objectives.

Yeah I pretty much just went backwards through some of the dungeons (mostly Victory Road). There's that Power Plant too (surf from near the Rock Tunnel entrance) where you can get a Zapdos.

I always got a Dratini from the Celadon casino so I normally destroyed the shit out of everyone in my path with my leveled-up Dragonite by the time I got to the Indigo Plateau.

Cheers Olly. Any good sites to download games for it?

Don't know if it still exists but I used to use dgemu.com . It's a forum site that would give you points to download roms with. A certain amount of points would be refreshed every day so you'd at least have that much. But you had to earn additional points by posting in the forums but you got to keep those until you spent them. I think points required to download games were dependent on the file size of the games so an N64 game would require a lot while SNES or Gameboy Advance wouldn't require as much.

Tedious but it might be an option if they have a game you can't find anywhere else.
 
i'd do anything to be able to play pokemon on my iphone, or even my computer again.... are there any emulators out that allow you to play it on your iphone?
 
ok so i got pokemon red working on the emulator, but i can't get past the second window. i did the 128k option thing, but the next window i can't get past...

wait, i think i've got it now.
