The Evolution Of Emulators Is Unreal

I don't know if you are familiar with the word 'Emulator' or not but if not then let me give you a short introduction to it.

In simple computer and tech language, Emulator is software that enables one computer system to behave like another computer system. In other words, understand it through an example, an operating system capable of operating another system without even changing itself. Lol, I hope I am not creating confusion here.

Don't worry slowly this blog will clear the confusion.

Have you heard of game and application emulation like in a Windows Laptop or PC you can use Android applications and games?

It's possible through an emulator. Some may have heard about the popular Android emulator on Windows, BlueStacks. Which can emulate all android games and apps without owning an android phone. That sounds cool na as well as penny-saving, lol.

And what if I say you can emulate almost all OS in Windows, including the heavy gaming consoles like PS3, Nintendo Switch, PS2, and even PS4. Of course, for it, you will need a strong PC with heavy graphics and specifications.

But what about Android how strong Android devices are nowadays? Are they capable to emulate high gaming consoles?

The answer is very strong. Android devices are now capable to run heavy console games like PlayStation Portable, PS1, Nintendo WII/3DS, even PS2, and even Nintendo Switch. That's huge because 5years ago I only knew android phones and it's processors were capable to emulate GBA, and PlayStation Portable games but now it's even capable to run Nintendo Switch games. The top-tier games like Mario Odyssey, Pokemon games, etc. Though even here you need high android devices equipped with Snapdragon processors above Snapdragon 840 for 30FPS gaming on several titles.

It's so unreal that a 50MB size of application can emulate games of other OS bigger than 20GB, lol.

You may think that this will hamper the sales of other consoles and devices and won't it be illegal? Well, it's not illegal as the developers always advise to get the games in their original devices and then dump it on Emulators but you know the reality is very few follow that rule, haha.

Recently I purchased a new smartphone and was surprised to see how strong this device is in emulation. It saves my money to buy other gaming consoles, lol.

After 5 years and this much development, I won't be surprised to see Android devices running PS3 or PS4 games in the future. Of course, I failed to mention you can't emulate everything at 100% perfection but it's definitely close to it, like 90-95% close.

Final Thoughts

Rest, Emulators are mostly free, and I always advise using emulators for free that have Open source code. I know most of you have never heard about this, so I think your first hearing wasn't that confusing, haha.

Have a great day ahead!
