Like OpenEMU, RetroArch is one of those emulators that holds a large number of different consoles in one golden-age-of-gaming hub. VirtualNES takes the 3rd spot in this list of the best NES emulators of all time! Just download it and give it a try you won’t be disappointed.

I could talk about how much I love OpenEMU for a long time, but that would bore you and send my word count sky high. It’s like brain surgery, but OpenEMU simplifies it and makes it easy for dimwits like me to understand. Seriously, I find controller mapping to be a tedious task and one that I had difficulty with when I first got into computer gaming. Drop ROM files in and sit back as OpenEMU puts them into alphabetical order and displays a neat little graphic of the game cover.Īnd the controller mapping screen takes all the stress out of setting up an external controller on any system. I’ve referred to OpenEMU before as looking like the retro gaming world’s version of iTunes that’s how slick it is. It looks like something Apple should have designed and works a treat. For starters, it’s the best looking program on the internet bar none. As a prolific Mac aficionado, this is one of the best emulators I’ve ever downloaded.
