Dolphin is a free and open-source video game console emulator of GameCube and Wii [27] that runs on Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Series S. [ 9 ] [ 10 ] It had its inaugural release in 2003 as freeware for Windows.
The current TAS standing at 216 milliseconds (13 frames) was performed by exploiting a small bug with the Famicom and NES hardware in which the CPU makes many extra "read" requests from one of the controller inputs, registering many more button presses than have occurred; the A button is mashed at a rate of 8 kilohertz (8000 times per second ...
RetroArch is a free and open-source, cross-platform frontend for emulators, game engines, video games, media players and other applications. It is the reference implementation of the libretro API, [2] [3] designed to be fast, lightweight, portable and without dependencies. [4]
Furthermore, emulation software may offer online multiplayer functionality and the ability to speed up and slow down the emulation speed. This allows the user to fast-forward through unwanted cutscenes for example, or the ability to disable the framelimiter entirely (useful for benchmarking purposes).
Yuzu (sometimes stylized in lowercase) is a discontinued free and open-source emulator of the Nintendo Switch, developed in C++. Yuzu was announced to be in development on January 14, 2018, less than a year after the Switch's release.

After VisualBoyAdvance became inactive in 2004, several forks began to appear such as VBALink, which allowed users to emulate the linking of two Game Boy devices.
In computer science, dynamic recompilation is a feature of some emulators and virtual machines, where the system may recompile some part of a program during execution. By compiling during execution, the system can tailor the generated code to reflect the program's run-time environment, and potentially produce more efficient code by exploiting information that is not available to a traditional ...
