Hwlngmad Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 I watched the most recent ARG episode where the fellas covered the TI99/4a. In the episode (linked below) they talked about a web browser-based emulator. The website for the emulator is http://js99er.net/#/. Definitely give this a whirl as every game and/or program (if I am not mistaken) is at ones fingertips with it. BTW, the video below has the steps in order to get to the software / games. As the TI99/4a was my family's first home computer, definitely this helps scratch the nostalgia itch. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for sharing, we have known of this emulator for many years and it's creator is an active participant of these ti99 forums. Welcome to these forums and may you re-enjoy your childhood memories here. Edited November 30, 2022 by RickyDean spelling 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrhodes Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Js99er is good, but Classic99 was my first TI99 emulator, so I just keep using it. I do occasionally use js99er on my phone at work, but If I'm home, it's real iron or Classic99. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heh, yeah, I figured it was probably well known, but thought I would take the chance of sharing as I thought it was too cool to not share in case it wasn't well known as it is a seemingly great way to experience an old machine. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simulators attempt to reproduce the behavior. There's a crazy amount of overlap 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
