Well I tried to run ChuChu on the nullDC emu I had and had some issues (but it ran powerstone before so I don't know why). I looked and saw a new one I never heard of that was higher rated. ReDream
https://redream.io

I was honestly shocked, and assuming it's not just using some of the info from nullDC, it like - instantly recognized my 2 ISOs and showed them in the menu. I clicked and they started right away. I was pretty fucking amazed.

I'm not sure how great the emulation is. I tried to compare to nullDC, and they seem mostly comparable? The only problem is not a lot of options/plugins, but it's still pretty early, but damn.

So I tried to upload ChuChu ZIP to my server for you (instead of you having to download from a ROM site) but it failed at first (due to me changing PW in the middle of the session (I think it was that). So I tried again but it failed. They have an "upload ZIP" option (I wasn't using regular FTP at that point) and tried that, but it was taking forever and I went to bed.

I'm gonna try again. But yeah, check out redream I'm honestly impressed. So far the easiest emu I've ever used. Nesticle was pretty good. But SNES9x, MAME, PCSX2 all have been a bit wonky to deal with (esp. PCSX2). nullDC even more so (with it's need for plugins). But this? Wow.

This is how it should be. decompress, click EXE: BAM there's your library with the cover art for the games already there and ready to go.
