    Is there any kind of GUI menu I can choose to run emulators from?

    What I mean is, is there some kind of GUI Menu selection/frontend that I can use on Linux to start say...ZSNES/SNES9x, whatever genesis emulator, nes emulator, MAME etc etc...that works with Ubuntu 64bit AND it's easy to install (.deb, or at least pretty easy to compile in 64bit)? something like an emulator selector if I have to be more specific.

    But I'm not talking about those MAME frontends which say they work with other emulators but usually don't very well, also NOT MAMEWAH (or whatever the name of the Linux version was) and if that's the last resort then I would like instruction on how to set it up easily (the Linux version never worked for me)...thanks in advance!

    Might be what you're looking for. Not sure about 64bit tho.

    Nice app! Compiles just fine for me on Arch 64 bit, and not many dependencies (if you have Gnome that should be pretty much everything, unless the things you need are split into a bunch of -dev packages, another reason I like Arch).

    I know that you're not on Ubuntu, but could you tell me how did you compile for 64bit?

    I am so glad you asked this question. I had been contemplating starting a project to write one for a few days now. Had a look and this seems pretty cool as it is. Means I can do something else. . huzzzah!
