Awesome Emulators

A list of all the emulators for a particular system. Includes honorable and historical mentions as well!

This list will always be kept as complete and up-to-date as possible, but please open an issue if you have any questions/comments/concerns.

Official websites and links to the authors will always be used if possible, otherwise mirrors may be used if they are available.

Quick note: the recommended column is purely subjective and I only use it as a means of answering the question "should/could/would you use it?" or "is there a viable use case or reason for this emulator to be used instead of another?" Please ask yourself what you are using the emulator for and then make an educated decision based on your own research and needs.

Now onto the list! 😄

Silhouette was an unofficial port of SNES96 (by an anonymous developer), which was an early version of what would eventually become SNES9x.

[!CAUTION] The Switch 2 is a very new console, please be VERY cautious when trying out these emulators. Also worth noting, the Switch 2 isn't fully hacked yet, so making an emulator will be very difficult without dumps of the system files, etc. being available. Basically, just be careful and use common sense.
