## What it is
A multi-platform retro game console emulation system consisting of emulator apps for many classic consoles, built on the Imagine platform abstraction library and EmuFramework. It targets Android and Linux with a minimalist UI and a focus on low audio/video latency.

## Use cases
- play retro console games on Android
- emulate NES SNES GBA on Linux handheld
- low latency audio video emulation
- run emulators on Pandora handheld
- emulate Sega Saturn on 64-bit Android
- download nightly emulator builds

## When to choose
- you want minimalist low-latency emulators for Android or Linux
- you target old or unusual devices like Xperia Play or Pandora
- you want per-console dedicated emulator apps

## When to avoid
- you need a single all-in-one multi-system frontend like RetroArch
- you need iOS, Windows, or macOS support
- you want a feature-rich modern UI with shaders and netplay

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: active
- function: simulation, graphics, audio-processing, gui
- domain: gaming-tools, cross-platform, embedded-systems
- platform: cpp, c
