It's just convenient IMO. Like sometimes, u fudge up somewhere, and don't want to do everything over again.

Also cheating in some cases, like when i played Fire Emblem on the hardest mode, and beat the game without loosing a single charactor.

And in some cases, it's the only way to beat a game. I actually way prefer emulators over the consoles. And even if i own the console, would still use an emulator. And i believe I'm not the only one.

Another great thing about emulators, along with save states, is the fact that u can speed up the emulation. This i find very helpful, and unlike save states, is not in any way related to cheating. Pure timesaver.

And u can also slow down the emulation, which is helpful as well sometimes.


Did anyone know that u can actually make a game look graphically better with emulation that how it would turn up in a console? Try using ePSXe, and turning the settings up. It uses the graphics card to do graphics enhancing stuff the PSX can't do. :)
