Hit PrintScreen button and paste it, then resize it with any image editing softwares.

Alternatively, any emulators have the same features but you'll need to resize it with image editing softwares though. ;)

What emulators are you using? :)

Another alternative:
One of the good utilties. Good to try them out.
FRAPS (http://www.fraps.com/) or HyperSnap DX

Simply run the emu in hires like 1280x1024 or something.
BTW what size are you trying to get ?
Why not use Photoshop...and apply some despeckle effect to make it look smoother ?

I'd mention that already. Resize the pics using any image editing software after the game's screenshots were taken. :cool:
