The only way is to try them, since no-one uses Windows 8. [/trolling]
As for "retro", what does that cover? Old emulators like NESticle/NeoRAGE or simply emulators of retro systems?
If you're talking of 1990s/2000 era "retro" emulators, here's a few I used back when my PC was all of 1.2GHz - and a Celeron at that!
Viva Nonno, ZiNc/ePSXe/PCSX (retro would be PSEmu Pro/VGS/bleem!), Project64/1964 (or Mupen, Nemu64, or UltraHLE/SupraHLE if you really want retro), VisualBoyAdvance, MEKA, Kgen/Gens/Genecyst (the latter being the NESticle of the Genesis/MD emulators) might be worth a try, all being around the Win9x-XP transition era. I was more of a Snes9x person though, never used ZSNES back then...
If you're talking about modern emulators for "retro" consoles, just stick with MESS or possibly Nestopia, pSX, PCSX2 (probably not quite retro, considering the last of the stockpiled PS2 games only left the shelves at Target/Kmart this year)...
