- Note: The terms 'emulator', 'interpreter' and 'simulator' are used interchangeably by developers of interpreters of CHIP-8.
CHIP-8 is an interpreted programming language, developed by Joseph Weisbecker.
Most CHIP-8 interpreters are Homebrew emulators for their system, devices with official/marketed with CHIP-8 support include: the DREAM 6800, COSMAC VIP, Telmac 1800 and ETI-660.
Extensions to CHIP-8 have existed since the 1970s, With some conflicting with each-other.[2][3] Most extensions have limited support outside of the interpreter they were made for. The most supported extensions are S-CHIP and XO-CHIP.
For information on CHIP-8 extensions see: CHIP-8 extensions and compatibility by the CHIP-8 Research Facility

Comparisons
- Multi-system / PC
- Cadium The GUI is hard to navigate to a new user but has many emulation options, supports the most CHIP-8 extensions out of any interpreter see list here. Also great debugger. (PC, Web)
- chip8swemu Simple GUI with, easy to navigate. (PC, G&W)
- CowChip Sensitive to illegal function calls and crashes due to them. (PC)
- JAXE Defaults to S-CHIP mode[9]. (PC)
- Vision-8 Blurry resolution scaling (Windows). (PC, Gameboy, Coleco, Amiga)
- Octo IDE and interpreter, allows for sprite, audio and supports multiple multiple extensions and custom compatibility options and compatibility profile for specific extensions. (Web)
- Silicon8 allows selecting supported extensions (original, S-CHIP and XO-CHIP) and emulation speed. (Web)
- Chip8.js can not load custom ROMs, new instance has to be made to add games. (Web)
- flipper-chip does not support any controls/input[10] (Flipper Zero)
- Chip-84 Rainmeter Edition is blurry when set to a resolution higher than the original CHIP-8 due to Rainmeter not supporting nearest neighbor pixel interpolation. (Rainmeter)
Needs recompilation for custom ROMs: Super Chip8x(asar), NES-CHIP-8 (cc65), Chip-f8 (dasm).
Can't load custom ROMs: Flip8 Redux,CHIP-80, CHIP-8 Emulator (PICO-8).
