MIDI, soundfonts and software synth solutions in Sound Cards section?
Lots of projects there for this job either via software implementation or FPGA solutions (similar to FPGA-based emulators, this also needs to be mentioned in that page *FPGA), any volunteer?
Here's why using soundfonts and MIDI is beneficial for emulators like DOSBox-Pure;
useful resources;

- Roland SC-55 Soundfont by EmperorGrieferus (useful for DOSBox forks)

- PC emulators built-in solutions etc...

CD/DVD copy protection emulation
As i mentioned earlier in Talk:Main_Page#New_page_for_CD.2FDVD_copy_protection_emulation section, i think it's worth to mention this kind of software in here. Ahayri (talk) 16:21, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
Done
Suggestion: Move rest of x86 emulator section here
This page has everything except the list of emulators. It's odd that IBM PC emulators don't have a page of their own, and that x86 stuff takes up so much of a page with "Pong Consoles" in its name Phredreeke (talk) 18:34, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
Suggestion: remove Gravis Gamepad
There's nothing particularly special about the Gravis GamePad that an emulator would require specific support for it; it's a standard game port peripheral with two axes and four buttons. The entire listed row of emulators should support it. Perhaps an 'Input Methods' category would be better suited, and Game Port could be added as one of the categories.
