Hey, /vr/. I know how much you love to play with other people across the Internet. And what better way than Netplaying. They're many emulators you could use. These are the ones I recommend are:
PJ64 1.7 + AQZ Netplay Input Plugin [N64] (Max Players: 4): http://www.mediafire.com/?m881zaxlasilxb2
Retroarch [Various] (Max Players: 2): http://themaister.net/retroarch.html
Mednafen [TurboGrafx-16 to Various] (Max Players: 2-5 (Depends on system)): http://forum.fobby.net/index.php?t=getfile&id=526& (MedGui frontend: http://sourceforge.net/projects/medgui/files/latest/download))
KegaFusion [Sega Master System, Genesis/Mega Drive, 32x, Game Gear and CD] (Max Players: 5): http://www.eidolons-inn.net/tiki-download_file.php?fileId=574

You need to be able to open ports if you want to host a game. If you need help with that you could look here: http://archive.foolz.us/vr/thread/786103/
If you have any questions you could ask in the thread or you could join us at #/vr/_Netplay at www.rizon.net (where you could also set up games with our users or just chat. We're usually ready to play at night).

We hope you have fun.

>handle it better
you do know that ZSNES is completely lagless, and version 1.36 is the most compatible version, right?

I don't think you know a lot about netplay if you're recommending GGPO or something instead of ZSNES, which has been the standard for years.

Stop bumping your own thread with off-topic arguing, it's already been done it enough already.
