Game saves on emulators

Game saves on emulators - White and Blue Letter Blocks

Is there a way for me to save my game when emulating on my PC. I am using nesterj and I'm emulating super Mario bros 3 from the GBA



Best Answer

Most emulators also have a 'save state' function, that works outside of the game itself. It basically takes a snapshot of the game at that moment and you can load that directly, instead of starting the game and loading a Rom save.

Do emulators save game progress?

Can you transfer emulator save files?

Windows: On Windows, most save games can be found by opening File Explorer and navigating to "%homepath%\\AppData\\LocalLow". You can do so by pasting that file path into the address bar in your file explorer.

Where do I find my game save files?

A save state is a form of a saved game in emulators. A save state is generated when the emulator stores the contents of random-access memory of an emulated program to disk. Save states enable players to save their games even when the emulated game or system does not support the feature.
