Ok so I need some recommendations on where and how to get Pokemon games on my laptop via emulator. Post some ideas on the thread. And no i'm not buying them
http://coolrom.com/emulators/gba/14/Visual_Boy_Advance.php Then use the same website to search for the pokemon games. Download and then pointer the emulator to the file. Voila!
The search term I use on google is pokemon <version> gba rom. and vbs is the best gba emulator the roms have the file extension .gba for example, sapphire: http://m.coolrom.com.au/roms/gba/14477/Pokemon_Sapphire.php (I was on my phone)
Dolphin for coliseum/XD Desmume/No$GBA for gen 4/5 Buy a 3ds for XY and ORAS (and give me your friend code too)
If you want to play pokemon games on gamecube, go here and download dolphin. https://dolphin-emu.org/ (It`s also a Wii emulator) If you want to play pokemon games from the GBA era, download Visual Boy Advance http://coolrom.com/emulators/gba/ If you want to play pokemon games from the DS era, download DeSmuME http://coolrom.com/emulators/nds/ If you want to play pokemon games from the N64 era, download Project64 http://www.pj64-emu.com/ You can get roms from different websites, but i recommend http://coolrom.com/ and http://www.emuparadise.me/
Basically what everyone is saying VBA for GBA. Desmume for DS, especially if you want to link games and get some extra stuff Project64 for N64. Though I recommend VBA, you can also play GBA games on Desmume, and I recommend doing that if you want some better graphics (only some games work with better graphics, and they're amazing).
Pretty much everyone said above me. 8 years ago, I remember that my uncle installed emulator games on my computer, was so happy lol xD
