History
==History==
===Arcade===
Before MAME back in 1997, there was multiple standalone arcade games emulators, only capable to emulate a single game. Games like Rygar, Gauntlet, Ghosts'n Goblins, Bombjack, Asteroids, Mr. Do! Series, Pac-Man, Lady Bug, all of them came in your own custom emulator. This was around 1994-1995.
 
Later, Sparcade by David Spicer <ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20010202172300/http://www.sparcade.freeserve.co.uk/download.htm]</ref> was capable of running some arcade games in 1996.
 
Is worth note that DTMNT, a single emulator for Konami’s TMNT was released in 1998. <ref>[https://www.zophar.net/arcade/dtmnt.html]</ref>
 
1998 was also the year of the release of various complex multiple arcade games emulators, such as Callus (Capcom CPS-1) and System16 (Sega System 16).
 
===Commodore 64===
The first Commodore 64 emulator appeared on BBSs in early 1990s. C64S is capable of running games on a 286 IBM PC. <ref>[https://commodore.software/downloads/download/193-c64s/11782-c64s-v0-9a]</ref>
