i define emulation as the running of software for one system on another, which can be used for business and fun, but i do it mainly for fun (Business would be like running WINE in Linux to get Windows Apps to run in Linux) and i think the reason we pick the avatars we do is because they are supposed to represent us/our interests/favorite characters in a game

Here at 1emu, we're mostly just annoying people who take someone's seemingly serious questions and mangle them for fun all the while not providing a single bit of useful information. At least... some of us are.

Emulator for me mean : any software that allow me to play any type of game on my Pc

and about the avater, you play game,you like character, you put his pic as avater ... very simple.

For me, emulation is something simple. Something that copies something else, but requires twice the power, and you only pay $0.

The definition of emulation is kinda like how you defined it. Many emu authors develop emulators (usually for their favorite system or a popular one). The latter being to test their skills or to bring emulation to the next level. Emulation is basically just a program being able to run games on old systems. I think the best use for emulation is that it preserves the old games so that we can play them when we can't. (That's the main focus of MAME is to preserve and document arcade games. Playing them is a cool bonus)

People use game characters because its one of their favorite characters from a game, something silly they remember from a game, something cool looking, or something they remember from that particular game.

Generic defintion

 

Better than being labeled as a fanboy whose sole existence in life is to bash other systems and games with no expeience or basis at all.

I'm pretty sure in the near future a new member will happen to unlock the spam forum, begin searching through it, and find some interesting topics, of which I will be receiving pm's soon enough. All because of that one word.
