    Secret of Mana. My older brother and I didn't own a SNES growing up, but we played a large chunk of it three player at a friend's house when we were kids, and for years afterward we thought it was the best thing since sliced bread, and dreamed of being able to play it again someday. So it was pretty much the first game I looked up when I first found out about emulation back in 1999-ish. I wound up playing it with my younger brother rather than my older, though, as my older was kind of tiring of RPGs by then, while my younger was just starting to really get into them.

    The first one that came to my head was Pokemon Yellow on VBA around 2004-2005. It was when I really discovered what emulators were. But the real one was actually 20 em 1 (a brazilian "action 52" better developed, but still kinda boring) for Master System on MEKA for DOS in a 486 PC (it ran slow as hell...) around 2003-2004. Alongside with it, I played Sonic, Alex Kidd, Wonder Boy III ("Turma da Monica" here), and so on. I liked that so much that I had the patience to play the games at 10-20fps. I even managed to beat Alex Kidd in Shinobi World!

    I can't really recall, it was more than 10 years ago, but knowing me, it could have been Super Mario World

    Probably some C64 game. Either that, or something on the SNES, like Chrono Trigger or Tales of Phantasia. It's been too long for me to properly remember.

    It was Super Mario Bros for the nes. It's the first game I played on the nes,, obviously, so I had to play it again.

    Pretty sure my first emulated game was a N64 game.

    If not then definitely FF7

    Mike Tyson's punch-out using NEScafe. Using arrow keys was a lot harder than I thought. My wife deleted the file thinking it was spyware lol.
    I want my Atari 5200 back!

    Megaman X. I remember playing on the tiny screen because I couldn't figure out how to fullscreen.
