==History==
The history of the Arcadia 2001 emulators is very foggy and hasn't been documented clearly before.
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 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]] 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.
