Emulators

An Emulator is a hard- or software that enables a computer to behave like another computer. In the gaming context this is mainly used to run games from a console on another computer. Emulators usually need ROMs to run games. ROMs are a digital copy of a video game. Please note that downloading ROMs of licensed games is not permitted due to copyright. All emulators should only use non copyright infringing ROMs.

Due to its form factor emulators can be installed and used nicely on a Steam Deck. Emulator games can even be started through the normal interface.
