†Can only emulate Super Bug, Super Bug 2, and Capture
 
‡Only recommended because it's the only Emerson Arcadia 2001 emulator for the GBA.
==History==
The history of the Arcadia 2001 emulators is very foggy and hasn't been documented clearly before. The only two working emulators known are  In 1998, '''Emerson Arcadia 2001 Emulator''' by Paul Robson was the first Emerson Arcadia 2001 emulator<ref>https://www.gamefaqs.com/a2k1/916364-arcadia-2001/faqs/2628</ref>. '''Emulator2001''' was developed by Gavin Turner in 2005<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20051026150459/http://www.gstsoftware.co.nz/</ref>. '''WinArcadia''' started in 2006.<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://amigan.1emu.net/releases/</ref> It is the Windows backport of AmiArcadia, which is the enhanced official Amiga port of Emulator2001<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20130801182925/http://www.gstsoftware.co.nz/</ref>. It was written by James Jacobs and Gavin Turner, but the original author (Turner) is no more credited<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20060526070427/http://www.deadwoodinc.net/amigan/releases/ WinArcadia 1.21 (7 April 2006)] : "AmiArcadia is the enhanced official [[WinArcadiaAmiga emulators|Amiga]] port of the Windows program Emulator 2001. WinArcadia is the Windows backport of AmiArcadia." "They were written by James Jacobs and Gavin Turner of Amigan Software."</ref>. WinArcadia emulates the Emerson Arcadia 2001 family of consoles (Bandai, Emerson, Grandstand, Hanimex, Intervision, Leisure-Vision, Leonardo, MPT-03, Ormatu, Palladium, Poppy, Robdajet, Rowtron, Tele-Fever, Tempest, Tryom, Tunix, etc.), and various other machines. WinArcadia and [[MESSMAME]], and both of them are [[multi-system emulators]], which means that the Arcadia 2001 wasn't their major goal, but simply just a system upon a hundred other system these emulators are capable of emulating, and at very good accuracy. The emulator WinArcadia probably started in 2006 (The official website of the emulator was started in that year), but it is not known whether the emulator was capable of emulating the Arcadia 2001 system upon release or that feature was added later.
==Issues==
Probably the biggest issue is that this system didn't grab attention because of the very limited games it has and that it was discontinued only 18 months after it was released in 1982, so developers aren't giving it any significant attention.
