Save states are basically useless in games I play....... like tetris attacks. I only use states for those evil boss battles that tend to take a turn for the cheap halfway through.

Well it's a question for all emulator users including me?How often do you use the save state function in (insert emulator name here) while playing games? :( Well i don't use it much in rpgs and stuff.But megaman zero series,i'm a gonner without them.What about you?

I think after I did something hard,I would save my state

I use them more than I should. In general I mainly use them to abuse luck-related mechanics. Fire Emblems level ups is a good example.

I used them all the time, just in case something went wrong and I ended up loosing (which is mostly). I do this also to make sure my luck is 100%.

I use it a lot, especially in battles, because I don't like to use cheats in games, but someone once told me that 'saving and loading is a legitimate way of cheating', so I do that to make sure I have the best luck and never looses~

I used to use them all the time, especially in games such as MMBN for the last boss.Nowadays I only play the games for fun and the challenge of if you are able to beatthe game without cheats and such.Remember guys, if your fingers slip on a savestate, say goodbuy to those long hoursof gameplay. This happened to me in Onimusha Tactics XD
