Project 64 v1.7.0.49 - Nintendo 64 - Project64 is a Nintendo 64 emulator which at first seemed to have popped up out of nowhere.
I had some trouble trying it myself as my PC doesn't meet the steep system requirements of Project64. Yet from what I have seen,
if you have the right PC, Project64 will probably work better for you than any other Nintendo 64 emulator. For now is the best N64 emu around!

Compability - 4.4 - Supports a lot of games, but still work on it.
Interface - 4.2 - Very basic interface, maybe attractive. A game browser that makes you choose the game without go the directory.Supports multi-language.
Requirements - 5.0 - Works in all SO tested and with no compability problems. Even with 16mb GPU, the emu runs perfect!
Multiplayer - 4.6 - Supports 4 players and gamepads but for Net play you need "K" version (from Kalliera).
Extras - 4.8 - Action Replay support, screenshot key and PAKS support (transfer, rumble, voice...) . Supports sound dumping too.
Enhancements - 5.0 - Change of internal resolution, surround sound improvement, hi-res texture pack loading and anti-aliasing mode. Filters for textures available too.
Support - 4.7 - A complete faq with a lot of games and it's issues.

Final - 4.7

Visual Boy Advance v1.80 - Gameboy, Gameboy Color and Gameboy Advance - Gameboy emu, this emulator brings more than you can think. A new version called "VBA-Link"
can make you connect two virtual "Gameboy" viua lan or web and play.

Compability - 5.0 - Supports all games and hacked roms.
Interface - 4.0 - Very basic interface, isn't attractive. Too config options that makes this emu interface boring. Suports multi language.
Requirements - 4.7 - Works in all SO tested and with no compability problems. Need a good GPU (Pentium 2.0Ghz?) to have full speed without slowdowns.
Multiplayer - 1.0 - Doesn't support 2 players and no net play. Weak =(
Extras - 4.3 - Supports GB printer and gameshark. AVI dumping and ZIP game files support too.
Enhancements - 4.8 - HD filters option and zooming too. DirectX and OpenGL support.
Support - 4.5 - Doesn't have any faq file but there is an online faq.

Final - 4.0

NO$GBA v2.6 - Gameboy Advance and Nintendo DS - Nintendo DS Official Emu, today is the only one that can run games almost perfectly.

Compability - 4.2 - Supports a lot of games but sometimes it crashes in some games and some sound problems.
Interface - 4.9 - Very very basic, making this emu primitive. Good =D
Requirements - 3.8 - Needs a good CPU.
Multiplayer - 4.2 - Supports 2 or more players for GBA but not for NDS. No net play and wifi support.
Extras - 2.7 - Supports Action Replay and that's all. Doesn't have save states! =S
Enhancements - 1.0 - Doesn't support yet.
Support - 1.0 - No faq file , the website nad new version (2.7) is now paid. =(

Final - 3.1
