Here ==Nintendo=====Game Boy / Color===;Pinball Deluxe:This game hangs on every single emulator except for inaccurate ones and for [[SameBoy]] (Not saying that SameBoy is a list of notable games that can be problematic to emulate. Solutions are provided if possibleinaccurate).

==GBA==Game Boy Advance===;Wario Ware Twisted===Common emulators don't have gyroscope input, or may Yoshi Topsy Turvy, Koro Koro Puzzle:Motion control emulation for these games were not implemented until myBoy and [[mGBA]] added them. Patched ROMs exist that allow these games to be able played with the D-Pad.;Boktai series:Relies on a solar sensor to map gyroscope controls recharge an in-game gauge that affects gameplay. ROM patches were made to change the accelerometers solar sensor level with the D-Pad but proper emulation was not implemented until [[No$|NO$GBA]] and mGBA added it.;Famicom/Classic NES Series:Throws a Gamepak Error at start-up. It was actually an anti-piracy/emulation tactic. Emulation of the needed behavior was implemented in your device mGBA.;Mother 3:Sound battles rely on precise timing. Using a flashcart or controller. There's a patched rom with dpad controls3DS Virtual Console injection would fix that problem because direct access to the actual hardware fixes those timings.

==PS1=====Metal Gear SolidNintendo DS===MGS rewrites BIOS commands in order to work, ;[[Nintendo_DS_emulators#iQue_DS_region_lock|iQue (Chinese DS) games]]:Throws a glowing error at start-up "Only for iQue". It's a rudimentary form of regional lock that can only be circumvented by opening the ROM with a hex editor and just changing one byte at a simulated one won't cut itspecific address at the moment. Do ;DSi:Some games outright crash, or show the wrong text (like Shantae showing "Localisation not use simulated BIOS in PCSX-Rfound"). These will just give This can be solved by using a blank screenNAND dump. If you are using BIOS and it The Camera is still not emulated.;Mag Slide Kid:Has an add-on that no emulator has implemented. Wait for a fix.;Slot-2 (GBA bonuses) not working:Some games like Lunar Knight and Mega Man Star Force removed this feature during localization, try different BIOS filesso play the Japanese versions instead. Solar sensor bonus in Lunar Knight (aka Boktai DS), however is emulated in [[melonDS]]. Read [http://melonds.kuribo64.net/comments.php?id=110 this post] for more info.

Local multiplayer needed for trading monsters between two copies (but also used in other games) isn't possible. This recently got resurrected as a functional WIP feature in melonDS.*Online multiplayer was functional in as early as 0.9.7, but rumors spread about a Nintendo letter stating that all forms of multiplayer (even local) were illegal, meaning forks were spread on file sharing sites more than through fork developers themselves. Despite Nintendo's servers going down in 2014, alternative servers covering only the downloadable content still exist. On the bright side, save editors still exist.

==Game Boy Color=====Shantae===VBA doesn't emulate the game properly. Use [[Gambatte]] or [[VisualBoy Advance|VBADeSmuME-'''M''']] insteadlibretro is currently playing catch-up with graphical fixes and some freezing bugs here and there.

===Super Nintendo DS=====Pokemon SeriesEntertainment System===All ;Tengai Makyou Zero:The Japanese version of the Pokemon games have issues, owing regular and limited edition releases used to require external graphical packs. This requirement is no longer present in all emulators but ZSNES and an obscure Snes9x Android port used for a Chinese fan-translation. It's fairly supported on all emulators. The game will run a cartridge check the fact that first time it boots. Press either A or B depending on what it shows on screen, and then when it shows you a new message in Japanese, soft reset the DeSmuME devs hate the series and refuse to fix thememulator. You can't trade between emulators (devs refused ll need to merge WiFi implementation)do 2 checks like this. After that, an .rtc file is created, and there are graphical glitchesall subsequent boot-ups of the games will play normally.
