;<code>version</code>
:What's the current version? For new pages, you will want to templatize this, especially when updates happen often. Emugen naming conventions are usually Template:(Project)Ver and you transclude it into the infobox by doing <code><nowiki>{{ (Project)Ver }}</nowiki></code>. See the pages of other emulators if you're confused. For the targeted platform's own table, apply the same template there.
:;<code>last-version</code>
::Replaces <code>version</code> (don't use both at the same time). If the project is actually defunct and no longer in development, this parameter should be used to show the last version published.
;<code>active</code>
:Is the project active? If its repository hasn't received ''any'' activity in the last month or two, it probably went inactive. Always be sure to check other branches. Optional, because not everyone has the time to check.
:;<code>fate</code>
::If the project is defunct and no longer in development, what happened to the project? '''Do not use for active projects (obviously).'''
;<code>platform</code>
:What platforms does the emulator run on? Often called the host in virtualization. Required because it's gotta run somewhere. List the operating systems and consoles (if it has a standalone package for them), otherwise put libretro if they have libretro cores.
