is there a device to connect to older computers to play video games?

The site in my source has emulators you can load on newer computers. They emulate they older machines so you can play their games.

You can buy adapters for almost anything nowadays, adapters that will connect USB mice/keyboards to PS/2 sockets, DVI monitors to VGA plugs...etc Just pay a visit to your local Radio Shack.

If it's still available, the program you are looking for is called "Bleem" and was in the news some time ago. Why would you want to, when any really good games (eg Lara Croft, Tomb Raider) are available on all major "Platforms" unless they're exclusive lusive, and it that's the case then you'll have the console it's connected to.\n\nLast time my friend who has a PS1 and PS2 console asked me about this (I don't have either) I told him as I am telling you. It may be difficult to find, but if you do and this works, ENJOY! Even if this is availble and you can find it, there's no guarantee that it will work on newer games based on how theyre programmed....

No i dont think thats possible because your computer cant understand the data format your ps2 games. Ive also never heard of that being done so id have to say no.

yes, try to connect the 2 PC together some how (seriel cable is the best way- both end should be male (have the little pins- needles if you want)), and configure you game's network so the computers can see each other, it should be very easy.\nhave fun.

yes if you want to play your games follow these steps:\n1) On your PC you have to have a TV tuner card installed(they cost about 50-60 bucks or just go on eBay)\n2)Make sure you have the PlayStation AV cables\n3)Connect the AV cables like you would to any TV\n4)If you want to also allow data sharing (saving games using your computers hard drive)you need (i think never actually tried it)a usb connector bridge which is around 20 bucks.\nThis works whether it is a desktop or a laptop just make sure you get a compatible TV card for you computer. I don't think you can play on Mac's however.

Nope, you need a wirless adaptor, USB adaptors are cheap, ($12 - 30 Bucks) try compusa, or tigerdirect.com

There are DVI cables that break out to the individual component digital plugs for both machines.  You might be able to use this to your advantage and just use some extention cables between the two adapters to connect them up.  Do a little research about component plugs for PS2 and DVI.

Maybe the games you have are too old for the computer you have? You need to check whether the games you have are compatibility with your new system.\n\nOld games were not necessarily made for the specs of newer computers, therefore the games might not function properly.\n\nDo you use Windows XP? Have you tried Program Compatibility Wizard?\n\nStarts the Program Compatibility Wizard, which helps you configure older programs to run on Windows XP\n\nKeep the computer you have! Get a old computer for use with your older games.

Alternatively to a hub, you can use something called a "cross-over cable".\n\nThis cable allows the direct communications between two computers, which the Playstation is.\n\nYou should be able to pick one up for less then $10.\n\nA small ethernet hub will run you around $25.

some older projectors do not have the normal 15-pin vga connector that laptops have as monitor outs.  if your laptop has a s-video out, you can connect it using that, though.  most the time, the newer projectors are made for a computer to be connected, and you will have no difficulties.

There are lots of TV cards available, and yes you can hook up video games just like you do with a TV.\nI have the ATI All in Wonder 8500 and it works great.

Thats false.  You can play the older games that exist on your new computer, as long as you have the correct emulator software (a program that "translates" the old code or programming language to a series of instructions that your new OS can understand and execute).  Lots of emulators are available on the net.

Assuming you have a computer hooked up to the LCD monitor, I've done this before by using a video-capture or TV Tuner card through the computer.\n\nYou can get a PCI TV Tuner card which allows for standard video inputs (usually coax and composite), these tend to run around $50 or less. Once the hardware and software are installed, simply hook the gamecube up to the Tuner card as though it were a TV, and the software will let you view the console output on your computer monitor.\n\nBasically, turn your computer into a TV and everything falls into place for hooking standard TV accessories to it.

Yes. You will want a USB TV converter. Leadtek and others make these and they work pretty well from what I understand. I know the internal cards from Leadtek do however driver support for Win64 doesn't exist.
