* [[Nintendo Switch emulators|Nintendo Switch]]
[[PPSSPP]] can use ColdBird's proOnline Adhocand JPCSP supports multiplayer on the same network but only the JPCSP supports XLink Kai. See [http://forums.ppsspp.org/showthread.php?tid=3595&pid=59241 [PlayStation_Portable_emulators#Hardware_features|this thread (might be outdated)section] and [http://forums.ppsspp.org/forumdisplay.php?fid=34 this forum] for setup and game compatibility. Alternatively, use [https://www.mediafire.com/file/fa594mij817q2id/ppsspp-1.7-15-Adhoc_stuff-Chat-GVG.rar/file this fork] and extract the PPSSPP folder to two differently named folders which you can run at the same time as different instances with different key inputs. Under Networking Settings: * Change PRO Ad-hoc Server IP Address to 127.0.0.1 on every instance * Enable Networking/WLAN and Built-in PRO Ad-hoc Server.* Make sure each instance of PPSSPP has the same Port offset, but a different MAC address. Games confirmed to work: God Eater Burst, Battlefront, Metal Slug XX, Monster Hunter 2more information.
→Online Multiplayer Emulation
This section will cover consoles that originally had '''local multiplayer''', also known as couch multiplayer, where multiple controllers were hooked to the same console. Out of convenience, handheld consoles that required link cable or wireless within a small distance in the same room between two units will be considered local multiplayer as well.
Netplay emulates local multiplayer allowing for players across the globe to play the same game as if they were in the same room. ===Streaming programs========Parsec=====[https://parsec.app/ Parsec] is a program to allow streaming local multiplayer games to others over the internet. Parsec only supports hosting from Windows or macOS. Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and web browsers can connect to Parsec hosts however. =====Steam Remote Play Together=====[https://store.steampowered.com/remoteplay/#together Steam Remote Play Together] can be used to allow games in Steam to be played with people through streaming. You can add emulators and any non-Steam games into your library by clicking "Games" from the title bar, and click "Add a non-Steam game to my library". Remote Play Together is supported on any device that can run Steam, and is the only option for hosting from Linux. Additionally, Android and iOS can connect to games via the Steam Chat app, making this the only option for iOS as a client.
===Nintendo Consoles===
* '''[[RockNES|RockNESX 2.0]]:''' A very old NES emulator. Has a very nice interface but the documentation doesn't indicate what ports it uses, so you're limited to using a VPN like Hamachi. The author did away with netplay in more recent versions.
* '''[[Jnes]]''': Still shows signs of being updated, but it absolutely HATES anything other than stock Kaillera. I'm not sure if it's possible to get it to work.
=====SNES=====

* '''[[Mesen]] (and obsolete version [[Mesen S]]'''): Mesen S has a netplay feature, available by going to Tools -> Netplay. Hamachi (and other methods) or a port forward is required.

=====GameCube / Wii=====
* '''[[Dolphin Online|Dolphin]]''': [http://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=Netplay_Guide This guide should help], although it should be noted that netplay is not perfect. This is for playing with other Dolphin emulators.
* [https://slippi.gg/ Slippi]: The best option for Super Smash Bros. Melee specifically, as it features rollback netcode and online matchmaking for it.
=====Game Boy=====
=====Game Boy Advance=====
* [[VisualBoy Advance#VBA Link e-Reader|VBA-Link]] and some forks of [[VisualBoy Advance#VBA-M|My Boy* VBA-M]] have netplay support for link cable emulation between two GBA units. Has significant issues.
=====3DS=====
No netplay support but some of the emulators support Download Play feature. See [[Nintendo 3DS emulators#Hardware features]]. =====Nintendo Switch=====* [[CitraRyujinx]]*[[Yuzu]] has local multiplayer support (through Wi-Fi).

===Sega Consoles===
=====PSP=====
=====Other=====
* [[GGPO]]: [[Arcade emulators|Arcade emulator]] built around netplay. Pioneered rollback netplay, widely considered to have the best multiplayer netcode available. It's so great that its used in some more recent commercial games. The only disadvantage is that you need to open ports to use it, and it's severely limited to games that were made or modified specifically to use this technology. Originally built on the same emulator as FightCade, [[FinalBurn Alpha]].
* [https://github.com/RossenX/NullDC-BEAR NullDC BEAR]: A Serverless, self-contained package for online Retro Games, Supports: Naomi, Dreamcast, Atomiswave via custom build of [[NullDC]]. NES, SNES, PSX, Sega Saturn, Sega Megadrive, Gameboy Advance, Gameboy Color, Neo-Geo Pocket via [[Mednafen]].
* [https://github.com/MisterTea/MAMEHub MameHUB]: Said to have a comparable netcode to [[GGPO]], it's also capable of emulating console games through MESS. However, using MameHUB requires registration, and the frontend, is coded in Java, is an absolute resource-hog which heavily impairs your gaming experience if you're using a low-end computer. You can join a game that's already in session. Newer Newer versions of MAMEHub use much fewer resources.

This refers to different game modes than regular local multiplayer. Some consoles offered during their lifetime options to connect to the internet (or similar services) to play against other people online.
