Emulators... How can anyone enjoy playing them?

Ive tried a couple emulators so far.. pocketnes, morphgear..
the emulation software plays the games flawlessly... but physically playing them is painful. given we are asking a little much from our little ppc, you'd figure by now someone would have a great working landscape mode, fullscreen, touchscreen button layout, emulator..

My problem with these so far is.. the onscreen controller is much too small, and holding down a button eventually times out after a few seconds. Pressing two buttons at the same time results in paused movement, obviously something to do with the emulator or ppc not being able to send two different button signals at the same time..

Im thinking about trying out some of the gameboy emus

Any other recommends??

In morphgear, if you set the orientation to west, you can rotate the screen, so your left thumb is usuing the directional pad, and your right index finger can use the notes/slider/ie buttons. You can map them to be whatever, and for most genesis games, 4 buttons are plenty... I rather enjoy playing smb and sonic using morphgear.

As to the keybd issue, there is a hack/driver for that floating around... i never had any real issues... Want gameboy quality, get a gameboy.

me too

yeah I have found a few glitches in all games I've seen and played. I guess we just have to find the fixes for them.

okay, i found the keyboard hack, fyi to those uninformed yet..
http://www.emulamer.com/6700kbfix.html

if you wanna play via keyboard:
- install and run the keyboard fix before anything..
- open the keyboard first, then run morphgear, adjust settings to east, and set your button layout.

i'll try out touchscreen west soon, see how that goes using the directional button for pad, and touchscreen buttons? for right hand.. hmm
