'''86Box''' is an open-source, [[High/Low level emulation|low-level]] [[Intel CPUs|PC emulator]]. It focuses on PC hardware from the 80s and 90s. A variety of operating systems can be installed in the emulator, which can then be used to launch programs.  It is a fork of [[PCem]]. It took over from [[PCem-X]] after the latter was deprecated.

==Overview==
+
* PocketNES: Best one for GBA. Fast, stable, with multiple zoom options.
To run any program, an operating system needs to be installed in 86Box first. It has a [[Dynamic_recompilation|dynamic recompiler]] that gives accurate Pentium/II support. It can also emulate numerous 2D and 3D cards.
+
* InfoNES: Old yet decent emulator.
 +
* Famicom Advance: Slower than PocketNES. FC/NES emulation.
 +
* HCVA: FC/NES emulator with support for lots of mappers.
  
86Box has now introduced a new GUI on Windows. This GUI is much more reminiscent of something like Virtual PC 2007 or VMware than the PCem UI, so users of those bits of software should feel more at home now.

Not really ideal for the obvious reason GBA has two buttons less than the SNES.
 +
* SNES Advance: Formerly known as PocketSNES. Different versions have different game-specific fixes breaking stuff elsewhere. This emulator is very inaccurate and has lots of issues, it hasn't been updated for a long time, so it's not recommended to use.
 +
* Pocket SNES: Low Compatibility.
