Hi

I wanted to know would I better off getting a PS 4 Pro for when emulators become possible. I have PS 4 slim on 4.55 but PS 4 Pro has stronger GPU or will that matter.

I guess it only matters when the developers choose what they want in the emulator. I would have said pro is better but won't matter if every developer just writes for the normal ps4

If you mean emulating "newer" and in general more demanding games, I would say yes, definitively yes..... Pro should run it faster.

I really doubt that there will be any difference. If devs won't be able to utilise proper hardware acceleration, (which hadn't happened on ps3 at least) then systems that use 3d graphics won't be emulated. Of course, if hardware acceleration will work then there, I guess, will be emulators for systems up to dreamcast, maybe even gamecube or wii, and in this case ps4 pro will do much better. But I really doubt that the second option will be the case.
