Hey there. I've been wondering, are there any Linux-compatible emulators out there? Windows is quite broken on my laptop, so I usually run Ubuntu on it. I've seen a few emulators labeled as Linux-compatible, but I was looking for recommendations by more experienced users. The less programs I have to run under Wine, the better.

H ave you tried to link to the emulator section. There are numerous Linux emulators listed. Which is the best, I can not help you on that, but there may be others who can. Hope you find what you are looking for.

Wlcome to TOC.

It depends on which system you are looking to emulate.

SNES: ZSNES
NES: FCEUX
Gameboy Series: VisualBoyAdvance
PSX: pSX

Those are the ones that I deal with normally. Others in our community play a further range of systems that I do so they will have better input
Hope that helps

Those are what I would normally use, but I was under the assumption most of those wouldn't work on Linux. Turns out all my preferred emulators will. I probably should have known that.

Thanks for your help!

No problem. Most of the best emulators tend to be cross compatible for the OSes because of demand. Which is nice
