Project 64 started close to 3 decades ago and has seen many changes and revisions over the years, friends have come and gone but we have all grown up together.
Of those revisions, it was decided to continue programming using the original 1.6 source, leading to Project64_Legacy.
Legacy means to not only allow games to run smoothly as we have seen in Project64 1.6.1 but to do so without hacks and various tricks that compromise stability.
Achievements include:
*Vulnerability found within Project64 1.6 through 1.7.2 is patched.
*Jabo Texture loading/creation corrected with exclusive Jabo Direct3D8_1.7.0.47a
*Dialogs in full-screen.
*Default Plugins with per-game settings (Video, Audio, RSP).
*Ique with full cheat support for known games.
*Online RDX support is accessed through rom browser...

This is an easy to use utility for performing some tasks on SNES / SFC ROMs!

Following functions are included:

Add header: adds an empty header
Remove header: removes an existing header
Edit ROM information like title, country/region and version
Fix checksum: fixes a broken checksum. You always should do this before saving, if possible. Please note that some beta or demo ROMs have an odd checksum anyway …
Fix ROM size: fixes wrong internal ROM size information (useful for some ROM hacks)
Expand ROM: expands ROM to a specific size up to 64 Mbit (BS-X up to 32 Mbit). Mirror option should only be used, when there are problems with standard expanding. Always check if your ROM still works after doing this!
Split ROM: splits ROM into multiple parts
SwapBin: swaps binaries to get a “Close-to-SNES-Mask-ROM”-layout (27C801)
Deinterleave: some copy stations like “Game Doctor SF” or “Super UFO” use interleaving when dumping HiROM games. This will reverse...

Tanuki3DS is a 3DS emulator for MacOS and Linux written in C which aims to be simple, fast, and compatible.

Created by Exzap (and aided by Peter Gov), it is the second Wii U emulator to be available to the public but the first to emulate commercial games. It can decrypt Wii U images that use the Wud format but also the RPS or RPL files. Internal resolution can be up to 1920 x 1080 depending on the game (and beyond with graphic packs). Currently, the DRC (GamePad), the Pro controller and the conventional controller are emulated. Wiimotes are also emulated (including native support). Keyboard inputs and USB controllers as input devices are also supported. The GamePad tactile input can be controlled with a left mouse click. The Gyro functionality is emulated with limitations and can be controlled via the right mouse button. This version is only compatible for Windows x64 (from Windows 7) with an OpenGL 4.1 (or higher) or Vulkan graphics card and it will be necessary to have 4 to 8 GB of RAM to make it work.

Created by Avery Lee (the author of VirtualDub), it is an 8-bit (800/800XL/130XE) emulator available in 32 and 64 bits. It has many options as well as good compatibility. It supports protected games in accordance with emulation. This is a development version at the beta stage.

It is a multi-emulator that manages the following systems with a superb, very easy-to-use interface.
Computers: Acorn Atom, Acorn BBC Micro, Acorn Electron, Commodore PET, Atari 8-bit, MSX
Consoles: Atari VCS 2600, Atari VCS 5200, Atari VCS 7800, ColecoVision, Magnavox Odyssey 2, Sega Master System, Sega Megadrive, Mattel Intellivision
Portable consoles: Atari Lynx, Sega Game Gear, Nintendo GameBoy

You will need .NET Framework installed on Windows. Pantheon is specifically dedicated to games.

The big advantage is that these are automatically downloaded in one click without you needing to do anything else. It is a pity that Pantheon does not have filters, this makes the games very pixelized because of the native low resolutions.

It is an emulator of Sega Megadrive.
