*'''[[DAPHNE]]''' is the primary emulator for LaserDisc arcade games. Supports more games than MAME. Use DaphneLoader to update DAPHNE and auto download games. The [[libretro]] core currently only works for Android, so if you want libretro on PC, see [[Android emulators]].
 +
*'''[[MAME]]''' has support for six LaserDisc games and two that DAPHNE doesn't support; Cube Quest and Firefox. The reason MAME doesn't emulate many LaserDisc-based systems, is largely due to indecisions regarding the disc preservation method and format. This will hopefull be fixed in the future thanks to the [https://www.domesday86.com/ Domesday Project 86] which employs a combination of specialized hardware and open-source software to preserve the discs in a far more faithful manner than ever before.

The '''Commodore 65''' (C65) is a prototype computer created at [[wikipedia:Commodore_International|Commodore]] in 1990-1991. It is an improved version of the [[Commodore 64 emulators|Commodore 64]], and it was meant to be backward-compatible with the older computer, while still providing a number of advanced features close to those of the [[Amiga emulators|Amiga]].

A LaserDisc video game is an arcade game that uses pre-recorded video (either live-action or animation) played from a LaserDisc. The first LaserDisc video game was Sega's Astron Belt released in 1983. The genre was popularized by Dragon's Lair released shortly after in the same year. The usage of LaserDiscs provided graphics close to an animated or live-action film which was vastly ahead of other arcade games at the time. However, with the drawback of limited interactivity compared to regular arcade games.
