Are you running 3.0.1 downloaded from their site? And is the game a clean dump, or some kind of romhack?

Why is N64 still behind in terms of emulator ?
Suggested for cheaters and poorly designed ROM hacks: Project64
- They should have locked the expansion mechanic behind more.

I use Snes9x for SNES (https://www.snes9x.com/) and Project64 for N64 (https://www.pj64-emu.com/) — there's a ton of other ones too.

is Super Mario 64 for 40$ good?
Sorry it took so long, but here we go. 1. You wanna go to www.pj64-emu.com there's a huge "download here" that will download the setup which you then need to run to install the emulator (I also choose to have an icon on the desktop). 2. You go to https://wowroms.com/de/roms/nintendo-64/super-mario-64-usa/24979.html to download the super mario 64 rom for the emulator, here I have pre-chosen the USA version for you, there's a European version too, they're all basically the same tho, you just get different language options sometimes. Click the green "download rom" button and it will download the rom in a zip file for you. Open the zip file and extract it (don't forget where you put it tho) 3. When you run the Project64 emulator for the first time you get to choose if you want to run it on a modern PC or an older one, I chose modern, but if your PC or laptop is old then you might want that. You can test out the options and if it doesn't work you can reinstall it and try again with the next option. 4. When you click on finish a blank window will pop up for you, there you go to "File" in the top left corner and choose "Open ROM" and browse your PC for the Super Mario 64 file we had downloaded and extracted earlier. Choose the file, click on open and your game should run. 5. Then if you like you can configure your buttons, so if you play with mouse and keyboard you can assign the keys from your keyboard to perform a certain action that would usually be done with the button on the controller and if you have a controller you can plug into the computer you can also assign the buttons to your controller the same way. For that go to options and then choose "Input settings". Try it out a little bit and see what's most comfortable for you or you can leave it as it is and play with the preassigned options. Hope that helps and if you have any questions lmk! You can also look for other ROMs and download other games, there's a ton of them.

Apple now allows retro game emulators on its App Store
Dolphin ships with a bunch of keys in the source code[0]. So do almost every other emulators for any console from 6/7th gen consoles (ps3, xbox360, gamecube), see delroth's post on the matter here[1]. It's really not that simple - jurisdiction matters a lot, and also Nintendo's own priorities.

Rokid Max Review and Many Tips
Though these consoles did not support stereoscopy originally, the Dolphin emulator can add it and output SBS. My experience was a bit mixed. Your mileage may vary.

Am I the only one tired of the remakes?
You install Dolphin emulator, go into settings and make a folder for your games where it says "directory", and then you just stick your game in the folder. That's pretty much all there is to it, that's why I think Dolphin is the best emulator.

Local Co-op Action RPGs on PC
Platform: Gamecube. The remaster scrapped the local co-op entirely (booo). This one is a bit tricky but works perfectly once setup properly in Dolphin.
