Includes but not limited to: SNES, Genesis, Sega CD, PlayStation 1, Nintendo 64, Dreamcast, Game Gear and I guess the Virtual Boy.

What emulators are available for the PS1

I know this is a hardware hacking, Portableizing forum but I was just wondering what emulators will run on the PS1? I've done a search for PS1 emulators and all I get are emus for your PC to run PS1 games, not emus made to run on the PS1.

If NES or some other system can run on the PS1 then you can kill two portable birds with one project.

Yeah NES does and Atari, but that's all i've heard about. Apparently the PS1 was too "slow" (for lack of a better word) to run SNES or anything higher.

Here's a good site for emulators that run on consoles.

Sorry to drag this thread back to the top but I'd like to know. On things like the N64 and Dreamcast how do you get the emulators to work?

Dreamcast is easy, just burn a cd.
You gotta get a flash cartridge for the 64, or have c64

Oh so the Dreamcast 's emulators are self booting, and the N64 needs flashable carts? Well thanks for the info, it helps greatly.

That's only because that's what the systems themselves draw game data from.
