:''Note: The terms 'emulator', 'interpreter' and 'simulator' are used interchangeably by developers of interpreters of CHIP-8.''
'''[[wikipedia:CHIP-8|CHIP-8]]''' is an interpreted programming language, developed by Joseph Weisbecker.<br>
Most CHIP-8 interpreters are [[Main_Page#Emulators_on_consoles.2C_phones_.26_other_hardware_.28....29|Homebrew emulators]] for their system, devices with official/marketed with CHIP-8 support include: the [https://mjbauer.biz/DREAM6800.htm DREAM 6800], [[wikipedia:COSMAC VIP|COSMAC VIP]], [[wikipedia:Telmac 1800|Telmac 1800]] and ETI-660.
Extensions to CHIP-8 have existed since the 1970s, With some conflicting with each-other.<ref>https://chip-8.github.io/extensions/</ref><ref>https://github.com/trapexit/chip-8_documentation</ref> Most extensions have limited support outside of the interpreter they were made for, . The most supported extension is S-CHIP. CHIP-8 extensions include: CHIP-8C, CHIP-8E, CHIP-8X, CHIP-8I, CHIP-10, HiRes CHIP-8, CHIP-48, are S-CHIP, and XO-CHIP.<br> S-CHIP (created in 1991).<ref>[https://chip-8.github.io/extensions/#super-chip-10 CHIP-8 Extensions: S-CHIP]</ref> is based on CHIP-48 (Created in 1990)<ref>[https://chip-8.github.io/extensions/#chip-48 CHIP-8 Extensions: CHIP-48]</ref>.
