What's the Best Nintendo DS Emulator (for PC)?

[Zyenet]

Gave No$GBA a run yesterday with Pokémon Pearl. The music kept at the right speed, but I hate that the colors are so off. I don't know how anyone can say No$GBA has the right colors... unless I'm missing a setting.

no$gba works fine under linux !! (with wine) so no$gba powaa !!

(I'm using it only for homebrew programming)

No$GBA is the best of a bad lot. It is getting better, but it is still horrible!
And the author seems unable or unwilling to write any helpful documentation at all!

NeonDS is the newest, and seems the most promising. But is does not even do sound, yet!
The others (especially Enasta) are hopeless crap.

I wish VBA (VisualBoyAdvance) could emulate DS - I love its Memory Viewer and Search for Cheats.
VBA is the best emulator I have ever used, but it only does gb, gbc and gba.

No$gba is the best. Although it doesn't seem the newer version will come out. It's been more than 6 months, maybe even more.

Go into Options -> Emulation Setup, then change GBA Mode to "VGA (poppy bright)" that will fix the colours.

Also No$GBA is definitely the best DS emulator available.

The real thing all the way.

No cash wins without a doubt.

Im guessing No$GBA wins

The DS. If I was on the computer, why would I want to emulate a DS?

I had never tried any NDS emulator. But i would try to use the most polled one

i like this "survey"

 

[alltooamorous]

Haven't tried anything but the no$gba. It seems to work fine, haven't used it since I got a real DS.

I play the real thing

. Have not tried a emulator yet, but maybe after this i will.

How come official polls take so long to change?

 

[imz]

The only time I used DS emulators was before I owned a DS, the best one back then was No$gba, it probably still is

 

[Raven Darkheart]

i use the real thing.
no sense having an emulator when you have a flashcard

All the DS emulators I've tried are not nearly as good as the real thing...
