In computing, an emulator is hardware or software or both that duplicates (or emulates) the functions of a first computer system in a different second computer system, so that the behavior of the second system closely resembles the behavior of the first system.

i would argue that interpreters and ported source code are most definitely "emulating" an aspect of 1 computer system on another. you can't run any of those games on the DS natively. by your opinion, isn't dsx86 just a DOS interpreter? Or are you classifying what an "emulator" is based on its ability to run more than 1 game/application?

i'm not trying to argue with you or challenge your opinion, i just feel that for the good of the community as a whole that the list should include every application that allows us to experience gaming from a completely different system on the DS.

Sorry I don't intend to integrate DS ports or interpreters. For me an emulator just emulate a hardware to run a specific software (on NDS). I made an exception for the 'Game & Watch' because the hardware and the software are an all in one.

These games are already on homebrews lists that already allows us to experience gaming. I've also thought about making a complete list of games and app but I have not enough time.

So that you don't have to pay a high price for the calculator itself.

But it's a calculator. If you can download it, you have a calculator on your computer.

You know, having one of those calculators on the PC would be emulation as well.
And my computer isn't exactly portable.

Is there something special about these calculators?
