Hello,
I'm new here,
I want to know if there's anyone who knows a good NDS emulator,
because I know a place where you can get free NDS roms.
So if I want to play them I need a emulator

If by good you mean one that can play commercial ROMs then no. The closest one is iDeaS.

And if you want to play the games so badly then don't be a cheap bastard and just buy a DS.

[Pandora's box]

you see that you can not play, those games you buy in the shops.
What game can you play then?????!!!!

:huh:

[Pandora's box]

But I mean roms,
those games with you can download on the internet

[Pandora's box]

I have an Ideas,
but how can I play roms an it???

[Pandora's box]

Then I think, I just have to wait.
till a good emulator comes...

Yes, you have to. Although a more informative topic title wouldn't hurt as this topic won't stay at the top all the time.

First you get a DS rom, and then you load it in the emulator. Although, you really can't play, since even if the game would run (which I doubt), it would be very slow.

Let's get a few things straight here:

Rom images (roms) == games, commercial or homebrewn (aka Public Domain games). When you are asking what games to play on a DS emulator when the emulator doesn't emulate commercial roms (games) at all, the most straightforward answer is...

Homebrewn (aka Public Domain games). These are games that are freely distributable on the internet without fear of copyright violations. That being said, homebrewn games are 9.8 times out of 10 a lot more boring than commercial games, although this is just my opinion.

Like I said in another thread, even though a DS emulator would run a commercial games, it would run very slowly, and thus be unplayable.

I just merged all three of the threads since they are basically the same conversation.
