Pokemon red rescue team wasn't saving for me, so I decided to reinstall the plug in. I've reinstalled the plug in before and kept all my save files, no problem. But this time when I deleted it, it asked me to delete settings or something, and said that I only select no if upgrading version. I wasn't upgrading versions, I was reinstalling, so I hit yes. Now that I've reinstalled it, all my save files are missing! I'm really devastated, I had a whole bunch of games on the go, unfinished or nearly finished, some with at least 30 hours in, like monster rancher.

Help, is there any way of getting these back, or fixing the deleting all the files when re installing the plug in problem?


I'm sorry to hear you lost your saved games. That sucks you were so far into the games.

I thought the uninstall prompt about deleting files made sense, but I suppose it could be made clearer. Basically its purpose is just to help clean unused file off your computer if your not going to use the plugin anymore.

I think it would be valuable to make some improvements to the saved games implementation, especially related to preventing loss of saved games. It would take a good bit of effort though. Maybe David has someone who can write up the PHP code to create backups and allow restoring.

Got a couple of issues, the first being with the FF7 NES remake. I've tried on multiple occasions to play the game, but whenever I try I get the following error:
"Failed to load game. This is often caused by a download error or another game running in a different window."
I tried selling the game and then trying it again, but I still get the same error message.

I thought it might be that the emulator isn't liking my browser, but I've tried a couple of other games (Kirby's Adventure and Dpad Hero), both of which are NES games (one original, one homebrew) and both work perfectly. At least when I'm playing them they work fine. I discovered that whenever I try closing the tab or hitting the 'Close' button at the bottom of the screen, Firefox crashes.

If it helps, I'm running the latest version of the RGR plugin, using Firefox version 3.6.3 in Windows 7.

when i play a retro game i can't see the whole screen, the bottom and right side are cut off. so like in pokemon the words are cut off when you talk to someone and the menu is cut off when you open it.

also in pokemon ruby destiny life of guardians the game started to glitch after i was in silkwind city for a while.

You should be able to just make the screen bigger.

For GBA Dragon Ball Z: The Legacy of Goku when the game loads up on plugin it says that "This program will not run on the hardware found." Is that my internet browser problem or game problem? I don't get this for any of the other games i play with the plugin so I think it safe to say the plugin isn't why I can't play cause the game loads up and then the game doesn't start but instead gives me a message box with what I stated above.

I'm having trouble with several N64 games:
Paper Mario
Super Smash Brothers
Pokemon Stadium (and PS 2)
Bomberman Hero
and... I believe that's it, but I wouldn't be surprised if there were more. What I'm getting is a blank white screen, with a black box running about half-way down the right side of the screen. When double-clicking in the box, it brings up control settings, otherwise, nothing happens. I've let games sit like this for a half an hour, and still no dice. The weirdest thing is, I've only encountered this problem on Windows 7. On our desktop (which has XP), at least 2 of the games mentioned here run fine... but I definitely want them working on my laptop .

All you have to do is save during the game and the next time you start the game your save file should be there. Make sure you hit the "Close" button at the bottom of the screen before you exit out of the game window (it won't save if you just exit out of the window), but if the game still isn't saving then I suggest switching internet browsers (Mozilla Firefox is the best for the RGR).

Yeah, I accidentally went to play the game while it was loading and now I can't play Monster rancher advanced 2. It says: cannot open file with the pathname of the monster rancher file in my vizzed file. Also says unsupported file type and fileRun() failed. Maybe I have to delete the file for the monster rancher? But I don't know how to find it. I use Windows 7.

Whenever I play any game for more than 10 minutes, a message shows up saying "We have detected an illegal action... " and then after 5 seconds, my PC shuts off. Is this my CPU or the RGR?

I saw some people say they have trouble loading a game. When it happens to me, I hear the audio, but there is nothing on the screen. If I hit the reset button, it will reload and work.


There may be some games like this, but I was playing the SEGA X-men game and you won't be able to beat the game. After you complete level 5 on that game, you are supposed to tap the reset button on your SEGA to advance to the next level. Since you can't do this, level 5 is as far as you can go. There is a level skip cheat for that game, but it doesn't seem that you are able to put it in, since player 2 controller is supposed to disabled.


I would suggest if anyone knows a game that will have this issue, to post it in the review section of the game. Just to save some people some surprise or frustration when they find out they won't be able to beat the game.

ok here are some glitches i've found with various games


resident evil 2 on N64 won't get past the N64 logo screen, it just freezes up



castlevania on the n64

it's menu choices disappear as soon as the menu opens, but if you close the menu it shows them for a brief moment

a few of the games on N64 may be a bit slow, like winback but IDK if that's cause of the game and not the emulator

Vizzed.com is very expensive to keep alive! The Ads pay for the servers.

Vizzed has 3 TB worth of games and 1 TB worth of music.  This site is free to use but the ads barely pay for the monthly server fees.  If too many more people use ad block, the site cannot survive.

We prioritize the community over the site profits.  This is why we avoid using annoying (but high paying) ads like most other sites which include popups, obnoxious sounds and animations, malware, and other forms of intrusiveness.  We'll do our part to never resort to these types of ads, please do your part by helping support this site by adding Vizzed.com to your ad blocking whitelist.
