halp me plox =[
hai, i am nub to emulators
downloaded torrent that i was told installed a copy of zsnes and rom of final fantasy 3, and so i figured i'd come here to seek advice.
game loads, but it just goes to the beginning movie sequence rather than the load and new game options *-*
keys unresponsive other than the emulator menu
i'm assuming this is a problem with the rom?
any advice as to what i should do would be appreciated :]

GOD DAMMIT I HATE FF3US!
*ahem*
The game is working EXACTLY as it's supposed to.
You WILL NOT go to the new game/load game screen on your first run.
The game will hit the title screen, then go straight into the intro sequence. Just kick back, relax, and enjoy the sweet mode 7 credit sequence while you hype yourself up to raze Narshe to the ground. Okay?
I have the original cart. I thought it was a neat touch, really.

To expand on this, unless you save the game at least once, you won't go to the new game/load game screen.Gil_Hamilton wrote:You WILL NOT go to the new game/load game screen on your first run.
Barring that, to get past the initial credits scene, press A at any time. Just getting this out of the way before we have post number 39482908 on that subject.
<Nach> so why don't the two of you get your own room and leave us alone with this stupidity of yours?

That was also the case with FF4 and I'm not seeing any people asking about it.adventure_of_link wrote:To expand on this, unless you save the game at least once, you won't go to the new game/load game screen.
The main issue is that the normal demo is TOO CLOSE to the real game intro. Confusing as hell.
Also pressing start doesn't start a game. Could be that too.
Smart game design 101: if your game intro is already a cutscene, don't use the same cutscene for the input-less demo.

actually that's not a bad tip for the duration of the game.Deathlike2 wrote:PROTIP: When the game music starts, pressing random buttons will generally cause the game to react/respond.
These are the basics for using the brain. Then again, what do I know?

I, and tens of thousands of other people, figured it out on RealSNES. How can it be HARDER to figure out on an emulator with a fast-forward key?
this would explain why some of them get frustrated with super mario bros. 3 and similar, since there's no life meter and they die by side colliding with the enemy.

oh well, IIRC in twighlight princess and (I think?) FF12 you can skip the cutscenes.. of course you'd have to press some buttons there, but hey.
