;[[Genymotion]]
:A closed-source Android emulator with lots of [[#Hardware_features|hardware features]], available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. [https://support.genymotion.com/hc/en-us/articles/360003059737-Can-I-play-games-with-Genymotion It's not designed for gaming but it has pretty good compatibility with commercial games] especially with latest versions of the games. It's a commercial product though, aimed at software developers and QA teams. You'll need to create an account and download the free non-commercial use license. Except for the pay-to-remove "free for personal use" watermark on the screen, paid builds add features only useful for Android app developers. Unlike other closed-source emulators, Genymotion avoids pre-installing unnecessary apps.

==Android consoles==
Because it's possible to fork and create your own Android-based OS, many developers have used Android to power their own commercial consoles. However, as mentioned before, just because it uses Android as a base does not mean they will all work correctly on a standard Android emulator, as they may require specific hardware setup, extra non-standard APIs or frameworks provided by the OS of the console, or extra authentication that relies on the services bundled with the console.
