All you need is an emulator and the image of the game you want to play.

The emulators we recommend are VICE and CCS64, game images can be downloaded from our page.

Now you just have to read the manual of the emulator you decide to use...

You'll need to ask the VICE or CCS64 people, but they won't want to help you if you are unwilling to read the documentation provided on their web site first.

Maybe you should take a look at the Help section on
http://www.lemon64.com

Wow! You are seriously lacking in web browser skills! Try the GBC tab above, then find a game by letter or name. The download links are on each individual game's page.

1) Install WinVICE
2) Download a game from this site
3) From the WinVICE menu, point to the game and double-click the game you want to start it
4) Do not confuse this with brain surgery
