Just another nub....
) and was wondering on what the whole deal is about...i am more then willing to do the research to learn more about emulators and the "files" associated with them....(not sure what they are called plz bare with me) but a little push in the right direction is more then welcome if at all possible ?? and perhaps if people are more then willing to answer very stupid questions then im sure my experience will be more then pleasurable...so ultimately i was wondering if people could perhaps give me a shunt to finding out more information about emulators and the file associations for them...???

First, welcome to the forums.
Files association vary a lot depending of what emulator you're using. The common files for each emulator are:
NES: .nes.
SNES: .smc, .fig.
N64: .v64, .z64, .rom.
SEGA Genesis: .bin.
GBA: .gb, .gbc, .gba.
GameCube: .ngc.
There are more file association and more emulators to mention, but I'm lazy right now
PlayStation and other disc system emulators use the same disc that are played in the current hardware with the exception of Nintendo GameCube and Sega Dreamcast discs. There may be others that I don't know at the moment.
Games for disc system emulators previously mentioned can be downloaded from the Internet as .iso, .bin & .cue, .nrg and other disc image formats.
Modern consoles (PlayStation 2, GameCube and Xbox) are not emulated at a playable speed yet.
The most important thing you should know, don't ask for games here
Have a nice... er... day (it's nighttime here).
