2017 Emulator Screenshot Thread!
This thread is for people to show how amazing older games can look with just a few tweaks and some higher resolutions. I absolutely love seeing emulator screenshots and wanted to share that with gaf . Post your best shots!
Thread rules below
1. Emulators for last gen and earlier games only. They also must be running in some form of emulation software. No PC ports/remasters/remakes etc.
2. No shopped shots. The images should reflect what a player can see while running the game. HD textures, ENB, reshade, etc are all fine but adding anything to the shot after it was taken is forbidden.
3. Include the game's name, system, and preferably emulator and settings in your post's subject header or within the post in some capacity
4. Critical analysis is welcome, telling someone the shot is awful is not.
5. Limit of 3 images per post doesn't matter if they are from different games the same game or running on different platforms. Only 3.
6. No double posting.
Emulators
Here are the tools of the trade. I've done my best to only link to the *best* emulator for the respective platform but this may come down to preference in some cases. There are a few left out as I am not familiar with ALL emulators out there but most most major platforms are here.
WiiU Emulation
Wii and Gamecube Emulation
PS2 Emulation
PSX Emulation
N64 Emulation
SNES Emulation
PSP Emulation
DS Emulation
GBA Emulation
Featured Shots
I will update this from time to time congrats to all that were chosen .
How I choose featured shots
1. They had to follow the rules (no shots without listed settings etc).
2. I only chose 3 as the thread rules are 3 per post.
3. I did not put more than 1 shot from the same platform or game. I want the op to reflect the diversity of the systems and games present in this thread it would be boring to see all SMG shots or all Wii shots.
4. No more than 1 shot from the same user
5. I won't be posting my own shots in the OP.

I recommend abload.de as it's free and does not compress your shots.
