Some Emulators for S60 V3

Vboy = Gameboy
Vnes = Nes
Vsun = Snes
Picodrive = Megadrive

There are various others out their but they are just a few.

yeah i know the names of most of them but i just wanted to know if i need to pay as ive heard theres alot of bugs and glitches with them..........dont wanna fork out good cash on something that doesnt work

You can try out VNes for free before you buy. I bought it, it runs quite well on the N95. VSun, the SNES emulator, also has a free trial - but I'd be suprised if it ran well on the n95 - the system demands would be pretty high.

vampent.com is where you can get them both.

i just got vsun and tried mariokart and its hopeless,where did you get plus from and was it free?

The emulator doesnt support all the advanced SuperFX / DSP1-4 / SDD1 chips of the snes, but it does support games like Mario World and many of the earlier generation games really well.

vBag is the only GBA emulator to date i think still(from vampent.com u can download the demo),however it is a concept-runs very few games..and although i dont know the specs of the N95,we are still a long way away from GBA emulation at a decent speed.

There are many, Google is your friend. It is illegal to download roms of games you do not own so you won't find anyone posting links on this forum.

It's a shame the N95's dedicated graphics hardware isn't getting more support, looking at System Rush, I'm sure it could run some damn fine games if only there was enough of a market for someone to develop for it!

Must admit I thought the same, amazing given System Rush, I expected a flood of games supporting it especially given it's the 'must have' phone.

Hopefully, given the larger-than-average uptake of this particular phone, there will be a few games developed specifically for this handset
