Now I've finally got a decent CD writer , I've decided to look into the emulators and homebrew stuff that have been made for the DC. But there seem to be so many of them.

So before a waste a load of cdr's, I'd like to know which emulators and homebrew stuff are worth getting. In particular which emus work at a decent speed with sound.

DrXlax!... Great 2-4 player game.

I can't plug this game enough

If you go to www.dcemulation.com... and then the homebrew section, you can find info and screens from loads of freeware Dc games. Ready for download.

Nester is a MUST!!!

Perfect NES emulation.

It's one of my wife's favorite things about the DC

I've been to that site, Theres a lot of things on there so I was hoping to narrow it down to best stuff. I only have a dial up connection to the internet so the less downloading the better.

Yeah, NesterDC and DCGnuBoy are great. Titanium Quake is also really good. I wouldn't bother with DSNES as the speed isn't there. DCFrodo is pretty cool, the compatibility isn't great (especially for demos), but a lot of games work well. DCDivx is a must if you don't have another way to watch DivX files on your TV. Other than that, I can't think of a whole lot, although you may want to give some of the MAME releases a go if you like the older arcade games alot.

is it easy for non-regular-gamers to pick up?

I would like to have another neat party game around.

Looks interesting and confusing at the same time (from the screenshots)

What about MP3 players? I know there are lots of them, but which ones are friendlier? I mean in terms of allowing disc swapping, and maybe using the VMU to display track info.

And which MPEG/DivX players allow for disc swapping? All I've seen require you to go through the uber-cumbersome process os burning the videos with the player, what is totally unpratical when you have lots of CDs already.
