iNES

iNES is a portable emulator of the Nintendo Entertainment System (aka Famicom in Korea and Japan, Dandy in Russia), written in C. The original idea belongs to Alex Krasivsky from Moscow, who also wrote the original code. I added missing CPU commands, wrote screen drivers, then rewrote the code, then did thorough hacking to make it run as many cartridges as possible, and suddenly wound up with a completely different emulator of my own (but without clear understanding what to do with it :)). Given enough support, I hope to make iNES even more compatible with real NES in the future and add support for exotic gadgets such as GameGenie, FamilyBASIC, or DiskSystem.

SNEmul

SNEmul is a brand new Super NES Emulator for the PC. Which means that this software is (in theory ;) able to run ROM-images of the SNES cartridges on your PC. In the long run, SNEmul should be a full SNES workbench with a debugger, an assembler/disassembler, and many other useful functions.

uae

UAE is a mostly complete software emulation of the hardware of the Commodore Amiga 500/1000/2000. A Commodore Amiga, for those who don't know, is a 16/32 bit computer system based on the Motorola 680x0 CPU and a few specially designed custom chips that provide very good graphics and sound capabilities. Its first incarnation, the A1000, appeared in 1985, followed by the highly successful A500 and A2000 models. But if you didn't know, you probably don't want an emulator.

Wine

Wine Is Not an Emulator, it is a alternative implementation of the Windows 3.x and Win32 APIs. Wine provides both a development toolkit (Winelib) for porting legacy Windows sources to Unix and a program loader, allowing unmodified Windows 3.1/95/NT binaries to run under Intel Unixes. Wine works on most popular Unixes including Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD, and (to a certain extent) SCO OpenServer, SCO Unixware and OS/2. Wine does not require Microsoft Windows, as it is a completely alternative implementation consisting of 100% Microsoft Free code, but it can optionally use native system DLLs if they are available. Wine comes with complete sources, documentation and examples and is freely redistributable.
