There are a lack of good emulators in Arch I think. The excellent OpenMSX would be nice to have a package for,
http://openmsx.sourceforge.net
Also there is a very portable NES emu called infoNES,

The package was a bit complicated, they define everything with static pathes, and also use this pathes in their source files. That's not the usual way to make a package, anyway, i made a PKGBUILD which worked for me now.
it installs to /opt/openMSX. Try it, and report back if it worked. About InfoNES - i have some problems reading jp, but i'm still trying to get some information out of this.

I can't tell you for sure if i meet all depends with this package, but for me here it worked quite well. I pulled out which depends the package has of the linking stuff in the makefile, and hope that fits (it should).
The package worked for me here. Report back if you have problems with it.

Thanks. You were really fast.
I tried to install them by pacman -U filename.pkg.tar.gz, but that did not work very well. I'm kind of new with Arch, I am supposed to compile myself? If so, how do I use the filelist and PKGBUILD?
Oh, and OpenMSX had a sdl_image dependency, but that was no problem grabbing from extra.

Okay. now I got both of 'em to work. Now if there only was a GUI... From the screenshot it appears the windoze version of InfoNES has a built-in GUI.And I now OpenMSX got a frontend called Catapult, but perhaps that has to be built separately.
Otherwise I have to figure out how to use options from the command line. As the documentation for OpenMSX is rather good it shouldn't be too hard.

Okay, if you could try building openmsx-catapult-0.5.0-R1 I would be gracious. Catapult is a GUI/frontend for openmsx that makes it really easy to use.
