Looking for a N64 emulator for pc (harvest moon)
I hands down recommend RMG: https://github.com/Rosalie241/RMG/releases

what? I don't know what this means
If you can't find another solution, give RMG a try instead. I don't know really anything about PJ64. But RMG is solid. https://github.com/Rosalie241/RMG/releases

Has there been any major advancements or innovation in emulation of older consoles in recent history?
Well at least for me BigPEmu the Jaguar emulator came out of nowhere and I've read it's pretty good. I don't think there's been much progress on the N64 front, but I think Rosalie's Mupen GUI which is fairly new has become one of the easiest/best ways to emulate N64 these days. And although not a 'system emulator' as such, DREAMM is also a fairly recent project for playing old LucasArts games.

Pokémon emulators
You mean emulators running on PC? It took some doing, but I finally got DS Download Play to work on MelonDS. First you need to get DS firmware files. I found one on Retrostic that did not work for me. Melon told me it was an old hacked dump, and trying to boot it just got me a white screen. I found another on the Internet Archive that works.

I feel like people put down MelonDS too much here
MelonDS is actually doing a lot of really cool stuff. I can't speak too much on the Android build, but on PC they have actually gotten multiplayer too work flawlessly and they are currently working on implementing netplay. You can keep up with their progress here

Hi, new to emulators. I had a question, can I run gba and nds games on this?
no, you can use mGBA for GBA games, and MelonDS for NDS games

How do I turn source code to a release?
If you are on Windows you will need to install MSYS2 and this will make the process easier (which is why that's how they build it like that). Once installed open it and do: - pacman -S git (update git in MSYS2 with pacman) and then build the standalone execultable - git clone https://github.com/melonDS-emu/melonDS (clone inside the MSYS2 environment) - cd melonDS go into the folder and copy paste the last commands in the Static Builds section a few lines bellow

Best online place to buy used games?
DeSmuME or melonDS for PC. Those are the two best ones out there. Mobile devices have nothing good at the moment, though.
