I understand you are probably ranking these off of game compatibility and ease-of-use. But you did not mention emulation accuracy once. Project 64 has been by far the worst N64 emulator for years. I really don't understand why people keep recommending this. Simple64 should probably be at the top of the list for accuracy and ease-of-use + great netplay. And also RMG and Ares deserve to be somewhere on 2nd and 3rd place. (can't decide which order). For their ease of use and accuracy. Oh and P64 should probably be at the bottom lmao. Too many plugins to set up for someone new to understand just to play one specific game without game breaking issues.
Also adding a mention regarding the list in the video...Retroarch isn't an emulator itself. It's a frontend for hosting emulator cores. It's silly to list it among "emulators".
Calibrate the controllers there are options just choose a n64 controller or a normal version of the switch controller not the seperate ones the ones that look like standard controllers
Project 64 has at least one severe security vulnerability which should disqualify it completely from consideration except on a system which has no personal information on it and which isn't connected to the internet or any network, but probably you should just use a different emulator anyway even in that case.
Simple64 seems like a very pleasant new entry! Plays perfectly even the hardest (to emulate) titles and offers a few settings to mess with, including the essential rendering resolution and vsync. Superb!
I got pj64 good running in fullscreen, 2k, upscaled textures without even downloading hd texture packs, crisp audio in even large areas (only need to wait a moment to load/buffer the environment to get smooth audio again, and I also for a trick to quicker get smooth audio when it slows down, hold z direction behind link and it kinda fixes the lag The Missing Link hack was so beautiful
@@tafferchuck1349 I playing so many Games on Project64. Jump'n Run, Racing, Ego Shooter etc, and i never haved a Glitch that you can't press two Buttons at the same Time. Maybe it's the Fault of your Controller Settings.
@@gusonian8637 I'M NOT LYING.😡 YOU'RE LYING. JUST TELL ME WHY EVERYONE ELSE USING PROJECT64 AND DON'T HAVE THE PROBLEM TO CAN'T PRESS TWO BUTTONS AT THE SAME TIME ON PROJECT64?
A couple things wrong with this list: 1) RetroArch is not an emulator, and RetroArch also has multiple N64 cores which you didn't specify in this video. 2) Simple64 was done dirty, it's the most plug and play emulator by far, and plugins for emulators in gernal are getting more and more archaic, that's why PCSX2 got rid of them. This emulator dropping them is actually a plus, also this emulator has great online support too. 3) RMG should have been on this list, it's basically Mupen64Plus but with a usable GUI. Also Mupen64 has been better and more accurate than Project64 for a while which leads perfectly to point number 4. 4) Project64 should not be used as a matter of principle. The dev injecting malware into it years ago is reason enough to never use this emulator. It got better, but still bad when the malware got replaced with a nagware screen, but that's still inexcusable. Also if you still need to use particular plugins Mupen64 or any of its forks, like RMG has support for them, so there is zero reason to ever use Project64, which is a good thing, this dev and this emulator should be left behind and forgotten.
@@deejones8552I'd honestly recommend Simple64. It has great accuracy, as a name implies it's plug and play, and if you care about stuff like upscaling it supports that too.
I like project 64, it just sucks I get this bug on super mario 64 (and maybe others I'm not sure) where it tells me it's loading combiner shaders but it never goes up and just stays at 0.0
think it's alright now, I had to try 4-6 emus and the audio was bad or i can only get good audio in windowed, except for project 64 current stable. hooked up my switch controller and it's a beauty esp when my controller got memory buttons to bind to D up (C up in emulator to have link 1st person view) and B (down face button, x for playstation) as Z button. (A for A button ingame, and I press X (up face button) for the feel of n64 B) the program buttons are behind the con so emulates the Z feel well and easy to fine turn with a shortcut for c up
So I have 3.0.1, I do get the pop up on the donation thing, but I have had no issues with it and been enjoying B3313 (Mario 64 ROM hack) I'm pretty sure it is safe but people still say it is not. I've had no issues but I wanna know if I will be ok.
@savagecabbage9715 I know that 4.0 is safe but I would still use a anti virus Also the virus comes from roms when you load it in pr64 it will activate the backdoor to your pc. I would recommend mupen64+.
LOL, I remember that commercial for Super Smash Bros. 😂

Any good N64 emulator suggestions for android?
massive W comment over here
bro just read emuwiki but don't know how things realy works

yea that ever time you start they keep asking you for damn money that pops up every damn time too
How does everyone deal with the lack of controller profile configuration options in these emulators?
Calibrate the controllers there are options just choose a n64 controller or a normal version of the switch controller not the seperate ones the ones that look like standard controllers
Just want to recommend Ship of Harkinian for ocarina of time. It's not technically an emulator, but the best way to play that game.
Yea, Its a port that adds Randomizer settings, Graphic enhancements (such as much higher frame rate and also higher quality graphics)
problem is that u cant use rom hacks with it

thought that was back in the day, is it still unsafe?
i deleted that emulator and searching for RMG
only 1.6 has this virus
Retroarch is not an emulator…
ur moms an emulator
You are not wrong,RetroArch is like a sword handle and the emulator cores are the blade
My dear, anything outside the original console 𝕀𝕊 an emulator
Retroarch + Config Control = 💩💩💩

Retroarch is basically a giant hub for emulators I think.
It’s called a front end
Retroarch is not an emulator
Project 64 has one heck of an annoying glitch where you can't press two buttons at the same time.

@@deejones8552 RmG or Simple64.
Honestly I'd go with Simple64 due to its name sake- it's super simple to use.
Is Mupen64 a safe emulator to install?
Just got a handheld console and use PJ64. Mario Kart and Mario 64 works fine, but other games are unplayable. You’ll you know how to fix that issue?
Warning to anyone looking into N64 Emulation: Mupen 64 and Project 64 may have malware and can allow you to get hacked, so don't bother with those.

Simple64 is super accurate, visually. ❤️ It's open source.
posts on reddit said simple64 was the best emulator so i went with that
Thanks I Thought It Would Take FOREVER To Find A Good Emulator
2:10 what is an "advanced savestate"?
Wait a minute that voive........... OMG KANYE
😂😂
Retroarch is a front end with multiple emulators.
M64 plus actually has malware inside the software, so does Project 64. But only with versions older than 3.0
What would you recommend then?
Does simple64 have malware?
Hey how you doing I wonder can you post some links to some of this emulators I'm trying to find them but I cannot find them anywhere
Thanks a ton, man!
What can you tell me more about this Project 64 emulator And the stories about getting hacked?

Thank you for this list :)
I wish project64 gets a current update
Use a dev version they get new versions like every week
How's the life with the strikes so far bud.
I hope they do not touch your channel or your second channel.
Thank you
Project 64 doesn't run Cruisin Exotica without crashing. Doesn't recognize virtual xbox controller. Fail.
I finally found ya.
I wanna replay Zelda Ocarina of Time 🔥
Hi, RMG?
The Zelda OoT on Pj64 it lags takes 3sec to open inventory
Finally a Opinion which i can share with you. Project64 is unbeatable.😊
🤣😂
Project 64 is actually beatable because the latest versions of p64 has adware and spyware so i recommend getting another emulator and uninstall p64
@@pessipenaldo69420 Dude that was in the Past.
Yeah project 64 sucks
Retroarch is buggy for me and I’ll be moving to simple64 so it’s stress and worry free
with project n64 i cant use xbox one/ps4 controllers on it tho
Can Project 64 be added to retroarch?
no,they are two totally different emulator. so no they can't
Retroarch is not a emulator
simple64 is a hot mess. consistent and constant game closures. stick with project64.
