Update 23 December 2006  - OK, this site is not nearly finished, and I have no right to consider this site not "under construction." However, I do have small Shining in the Darkness and Phantasy Star sections up. These sections are NOT finished, expect more to be added and the rest of the game pages to be up (except for SFFC, that one might take a while).

What is video game emulation?

Video Game Emulation is where console games are played on a computer. If you want a detailed explanation on how emulation works, visit the fantasyanime.com page by clicking here.

I will be improving on my own emulation sections as time permits, however, and I have some basic information in my Intro to Emulation section. 

For Apple Users - 

I don't run an apple computer, so I can't really offer that much help. The ROMs are the same for each OS, you just need different emulators. EmuScene is a good site for info on Apple emulation.
