=== Emulators ===

 

+

An emulator is a program which serves to replicate the functions of another platform or system so as to allow applications and games to be run in environments they were not programmed for.

 

+

 

+

{{Note|1=For possibly more up to date selection of emulators, try checking the [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?O=0&K=&do_Search=Go&detail=1&L=0&C=5&SeB=nd&SB=n&SO=a&PP=25 AUR 'emulators' category]}}

 

+

 

+

{{Warning|Owning an emulator itself is not illegal, but downloading/sharing copyrighted ROMs and using emulator to run them without the copyright holder's permission is '''illegal'''. Arch Linux is not responsible if you get in trouble.}}
