Maybe there are some niche #gamers out there who can answer this question for me.

If #BlueStacks exists so that you can #emulate an Android device on your computer, what's the point of BlueStacks recently coming out with a mobile app? Isn't that just playing on mobile with extra steps?

I was going to guess that it's so you can run Android apps on iProducts, but the app is only available on Android.

why is there no #Windows #application that, when I am in it, can #emulate a #bluetooth keyboard for my #iPhone?
it seems silly that I spend a lot of time moving my hands when I could just alt+tab into my phone controller. Both devices have the hardware, the computer has the keyboard I want, and the phone works with so many cheap keyboards because of the Bluetooth standards it already supports ...

The best way to #emulate BoTW on #SteamDeck is through #Cemu - it gives you the ability to play with mods, enhanced graphics, high FPS and a far longer load distance. And the Wii U version is the exact same game as the Switch version!

My fav mods are those which let me play as Linkle <3

Emulating my #NintendoSwitch on my #SteamDeck just makes me so happy.

The ability to back my games up and then #emulate them, playing them at higher resolutions, with mods, better graphics and frame-rates? #gaming has had its set-backs with emulation in the last year, but some people forget...#Ryujinx and #Yuzu haven't stopped working, it's all SO very easy to set up.

I use #RetroDECK to emulate: all from my SD card: roms, emulators, bios, mods...all separate from the SSD.

...and will continue to.

I like taking a look at history in general, but especially with electronics. Seeing how far we've come fascinates me. Plus I know that my ability to #emulate and play older games has given me appreciation for them. Doing that with the #Atari2600 sparked it, and it continued from there over the years.

Plus I am fascinated with not only "good" games, but bad ones. So bad it's good, bad mediocre, etc. Bootlegs, trash games, their story. Maybe it's too much #Vinesauce.

does anyone in the #MSX community know if there's a #MSXDOS1 program that will #software #emulate #80column mode?

Ethan Gates shared his bibliography of 30+ years' (1992-present) of emulation related readings, 200+ conference papers: https://www.zotero.org/ethan-gates/collections/ERZIYJ3T

Criteria:
- published/written works
- must include the terms #emulate / #emulator / #emulation in context of #DigitalPreservation
- if 4 video games - must apply beyond hobbyist context

Lessons:
- worthy of an in-depth literature review
- conversations have been dominated by small group
- most are case studies & research

I just downloaded the #1g1r for #PS1 and I'm just now figuring out the PS1 core settings in #retroarch. I never owned a #Playstation so I don't know what these games are supposed to look like. The geometry jiggling is super annoying so I'm glad the core can correct that. But somehow it feels like I'm not getting the real experience with the upres and filtering.

What settings do you #emulate PS1 with?

Is there a way to #Emulate older hardware? Like a #486 or #Pentium #CPU? :)
