==Nintendo 64==
The Nintendo 64 is a difficult system to emulate, and no emulator has a high degree of game compatibility. It may be easier to rely upon a port rather than try to emulate it.
While system requirements are substantially higher, emulating the [[Nintendo 64 emulators#Virtual Console games in Dolphin|N64 Virtual Console]] releases on the Wii results in more accurate emulation, even making some unplayable games playable.

'''DS:''' First versions of the original trilogy to be released for the West. The port of the first game includes an all-new episode designed to make better use of the DS hardware, and all subsequent ports of the first game have carried this extra episode over.
'''''Trilogy HD'' (Wii/3DS/iOS/Android):''' Not to be confused with the later and much-improved ''Trilogy'' remake. ''Trilogy HD'' performs slightly worse (and with significantly worse animation) than the DS ports, and is only playable in Japanese and English. Android version is Japan-exclusive.
'''''Trilogy'' (3DS/PC/Switch/PS4/Xbox One/iOS/Android):''' ''Trilogy'' has the best graphics, the best audio and the best controls of any version of the original trilogy. It also has the most language options available in any single version: the original Japanese from the GBA games; the English, French, Spanish and German (but not Italian) localizations from the DS ports; and two all-new localizations to Korean and Chinese.

Some keys cannot be remapped at all for keyboard, and certain modes do not retain controller remapping changes. Has new modes the 3DS version lacks. This used to be only way to enjoy the full story cut from the overseas release up until the 3DS version received a patch in some territories and the Striker Pack compilation rectified this. A new port of the Striker Pack for the Switch and PS4 which runs at 60 FPS, features HD event graphics and portraits, balance tweaks, and incorporates its sequel's difficulty system. A patch was released for the PC version on May 2018 that removed dual screen setup and added 60 FPS support, but a recent patch broke the game's Speedrun and Other Modes on PC.

===Console ports of PC games===
Since game consoles are much less powerful than PCs, it is recommended to avoid PC games ported to consoles. Typically the games have to be altered to fit the constraints of the console and may be forced to use a radically different control scheme. An exception to this rule would be Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine's N64 port, and the console versions of certain Disney games like ''Cars 2'' and ''Toy Story 3''. In the latter case, the PC versions suffer from downgraded graphics as a consequence of having to account for lower-end systems used by most families. Certain console ports of the PC games, however, may feature exclusive content like completely different soundtracks or extra missions. A notable example is the [https://nolf.fandom.com/wiki/The_Operative:_No_One_Lives_Forever#PlayStation_2_Edition flashback mission] in ''No One Lives Forever'', which is only available for the PS2 version of the game.

Features widescreen support, 60 FPS presentation, new content, the ability to use the Sonic 2 Spin Dash, the best quality FMVs, and comes with the US and Japanese soundtracks, but the Japanese songs are replaced with instrumental versions due to licensing issues. There's an unofficial port that implements newer updates from iOS/Android versions that never made it onto PC, among other improvements.

==SNESSega Saturn==Some SNES games suffered from slowdown which may be fixed in ports. Many SNES games were ported to the GBA. These versions may have extra features, but at the cost of poorer video and audio quality. The resolution is significantly lower at 240 x 160 as opposed to the usual 256 x 224 of SNES games. This leads to a smaller visible playing area, which can be devastating in some cases. The audio is much lower quality than the SNES and almost always uses inferior instrument samples for whatever reason (designated as "worse audio"). Also, most GBA games use much brighter colors to compensate for the lack of contrast in the original GBA display. To have these games display as intended, a shader or a palette patch is needed. Additionally, the GBA has two fewer buttons, leading to compromised control layouts. Several SNES games were ported to the PlayStation. More often than not the PS1 ports offer more features. However, the CD format creates loading times. Contrary to popular belief, most of these ports are not emulated. They simply take the text and graphical assets from the SNES game ROM image on the disc, with the rest of the programming being original work. {| class="wikitable" style="text-align:centerleft;"! scope="col" style="width: 14em;"|Name! scope="col" |PC! scope="col"|PS1! scope="col"|GCDC! scope="col"|PS2! scope="col"|GBAXbox! scope="col"|NDSPS3! scope="col"|PSP360! scope="col" style="text-align: left"|Notes

|The Windows version is a port GC: Port of the N64 version and is known to have issues running on modern Windows and it's capped at 30fps.The Dreamcast version has various changes from the Nintendo 64 and Microsoft Windows versions, including several 2D sprites being replaced by 3D models, improved texture quality, 60fps, and minor level design changes. The Dreamcast version also has exclusive mini-games, six hidden Glob Crystal collectibles, and replaces The Hall of Doors Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 1 with The Isle of Doors for the world map. Michel Ancel (the Director) himself has previously stated that he believes that this version is the best version of the gamecel Shaded Graphics. Rayman Revolution PS3/360: HD collection (the PS2 versiondoesn't include widescreen Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2) is a remake that completely changes the game for better and for worse. This version includes new minigames and bonus challenges, upgrades to Rayman's abilities, level revisions, new Reuses music tracks, the option to switch between the gibberish from other versions, newly recorded real language voices, and three new bosses, and Yellow Lum redistribution. The Hall of Doors was replaced with three central hubs, called The Minisaurus Plain, Globox's House, and The Rainbow Creek, in which to walk Dragon Ball Z games due to each level freely, play Ly's bonus challenges unlocked by freeing Revolution-exclusive prisoners called Familiar Spirits, and purchase ability upgrades or the new minigames from the Teensies with the Yellow Lums the player has collected. To date, Revolution is the only edition original Budokai composer being guilty of Rayman 2 that lets players save when a level has been only partially completed, but like all versions of the game, it still uses manual savesplagiarism. This is also the only version in which the 1,000th Yellow Lum can be obtained normally. However, despite the numerous improvements and enhancements to the gameplay, the frame rate is not as smooth as the near-constant 60fps of the Sega Dreamcast version, and certain graphical effects from that version, such as the blue ring trails that accompany a fully charged gold fist orb, are also gone.

Wii: Titled "Project Zero 2: Wii Edition" Based on Xbox Version. The game no longer uses fixed camera angles present in the first three games, instead of using the over-the-shoulder angle. The player is provided with a map on the screen to compensate for this change. A minor two-player mode is also supported in the main story. Many new cutscenes have been added to the game, expanding on the story, and several of the cutscenes from the original have been extended as well. The game is no longer determined by what difficulty has been selected. Instead, endings are now determined by how the player plays the game.
The game has a new theme song, not in the original. A new mode, Haunted House, has been added, replacing Mission Mode.

Windows: The PC version adds improved flashlight lighting, the ability to save at any time during the game, and 60 FPS gameplay. however, there are some points where the game will drop to 30. If you are running in HD, the DoF effects are rendered in native resolution, making them look pixelated but can be fixed with mods.

They were added back in for the white screen digital release. There is a drastic increase in the distance between Sly and an enemy required to trigger the sneaking sound of Sly's feet and the sneaky music. It has been increased to the point where Sly will make the sneaking sound almost all the time unless all nearby enemies are defeated. This effect is amplified vertically. Almost all background music has been remixed. Some background music is impacted by de-synchronizations, most notably during "A Deadly Dance." The original background music for a prolonged amount "Treasure in the Depths" was replaced by the music from "Burning Rubber," and the music from "A Ghastly Voyage" was put into "A Grave Undertaking." Some of timethe sneaky music was replaced by its non-sneaky counterpart. "Back Alley Heist" is one example.Metal heads have a shinySome voice acting is also impacted by de-synchronizations, silver armor texture as opposed to especially Carmelita in both "Police Headquarters" and "Duel by the original muddy brown textureDragon.

At the end of Protection"Duel by the Dragon," if the player hits the fireworks clockwise, a glitch occurs where Carmelita does not speak, but the dragon head still falls, followed by the player not being able to move. The player must hit the fireworks counter-clockwise to avoid this. For the PlayStation Vita release, Matt Olsen had to re-voice the camera control tutorial that plays when Jak receives his Light Shield powerthe player approaches the entrance to "A Cunning Disguise" inside "Prowling the Grounds." Since the right analog stick cannot be clicked on the Vita, his eyes are blue Bentley instead of whitesays, "to bring the camera behind you, tap the rear touch pad.

Only the bonus videos for "The Black Chateau" (Sly Cooper:9 aspect ratio supportThe Second Season) and "Anatomy for Disaster" (the credits) are available to watch from the level select screen. The cutscene that plays after defeating Dimitri doesn't show the team playing cards in Monaco. Instead, the Cooper Van drives in place while Sly's audio continues, though he doesn't mention Monaco anymore. Altered character modelsThis was probably changed, musicbecause the games had to be ESRB rated again and it was most likely requested to remove this scene to lower the rating. Based on A different sound is heard when selecting the second through eighth episodes and the movie option from the updated Final Mix versionsEpisode Select Screen. This doesn't apply to Episode 1 for some reason. PS3 Suffers The level reset glitch in "Menace from increased load the North, eh!" was fixed. The first few seconds of each level's soundtracks are cut off each timethey are played the first go-around. This includes all soundtracks except the intro level, as well as alternative soundtracks for boss battles or other missions. The player can no longer use the USB Headset feature to distract the guards. 60fps support in PS4/XBOX ONE For the PS Vita version, Kevin Miller and Matt Olsen had to re-voice the waypoint & binocucom controls to "tap the rear touch pad to bring up the waypoint" and PC"tap the touch screen to bring up the binocucom. Kingdom hearts 2 " This is also the reason the amount of buttons used for the power-ups has some minor audio issueslowered for the PS Vita version, so the player can use only the L button for one power-up at a time. In the digital version of the game, at the start of the dialogue, it is quiet, gets louder, and then the volume decreases again at the end of a line. Sly's portrait in the Gadget Grid is different. It uses the same portrait as the one in Sly 3. When recon photos are taken, they take up the entire screen instead of zooming out. The Sly logo that appears while the game is loading is missing. The Sony Computer Entertainment presents screen uses a different font. The in-game dialogue is slightly delayed on the physical PS3 version of the game. This problem does not occur in the digital or PS Vita versions. The background music will also occasionally loop when the character dialogue delay occurs. Some of the menus and screen effects do not fill up the entire screen.ReThis doesn't happen when playing the game in the original 4: Chain 3 display mode (such as with an older TV). Most of Memories the UI is fixed in the physical northern European version. Some menu sound effects are quite different, mainly the ones which play when, for example, manually saving the game. The "transition" sound effect that plays when entering or exiting a remake level is also slightly different. During "Operation: Thunder Beak," when Bentley enters the water tower in the original PS2 version of the GBA game, there is a transition where the image smoothly flips upside down before Bentley appears in the tower.However, in this remaster, the transition doesn't work as intended, flipping the entire image in a single frame before cutting to the interior of the water tower. The Japanese version has every dialogue re-recorded from the ground up, which the voice actors for Sly, Bentley, Murray, Carmelita and the Panda King are taking over. However, some Japanese voice actors were changed for others.

|PC|| PS3/PS4/XBOX One/SwitchVita: a remake The few missions that supported 3-D no longer ask the player if they want to enable 3-D because the entire collection on PS3 is 3-D compatible (but despite this, the cutscenes that play before that menu popped up are still there). The Vita does not support either version of 3-D. The music glitch in unity engine the "Hungry Croc" mission was fixed. In the original, the music never played. Though some of the PS2 versions (most likely the PAL versions) had the music played correctly. In the multiplayer game "Biplane Duel," the green-orange targeting beacon doesn't appear to be locked on to the person when using special items. However, it is only a visual glitch.When starting the game, there is a chance a random bug will happen where the music will begin looping five seconds of the audio, and the cutscene dialogue will take several minutes to load the same engine dialogue, with better characters freezing mid-speech and looping until the game catches up. A way to fix this is simply powering the system off and restarting the system, but there have been reports of people being unable to fix the problem without deleting their data, and some who have been unable to fix it at all, indicating that it is potentially an error on the disk itself. During the "Beauty and the Beast" mission, the music for the fight between Carmelita and Mugshot doesn't play. Additionally, after the mission is over, the rest of the game won't play any music unless the player restarts the game, dies, or use Bentley's Grapple-Cam. European Sly fans can finally watch The Evolution of Sly video without having to look it up on the internet, as every bonus video is now accessible. When Sly first meets Dimitri in "Police HQ," players can clearly see him even when his back is turned. This is because the HD port has a different rendering, which causes the lightningto be much more clear. Characters count much faster when opening a double button security door. For the PS Vita version, Kevin Miller and Matt Olsen had to re-voice the waypoint & binocucom controls, as you have to tap the rear touch pad to bring up the waypoint and tap the touch screen to bring up the binocucom. This is also the reason the number of buttons used for the power-ups has lowered for the PS Vita version, so the player can only the L button for one power-up at a time. In the PS Vita version, you can use the motion sensors of the PS Vita system to steer the galleon in "Dead Men Tell No Tales," though it is never mentioned in-game. As in Sly 2: recon photos now take up the entire screen. the Sly logo that appears while the game is loading is missing.the Sony Computer Entertainment presents screen uses a different font. the in-game dialogue is slightly delayed on the physical PS3 version of the game.This problem does not occur in the digital or PS Vita versions. The background music will also occasionally loop when the character dialogue delay occurs. As in Sly 2, some of the menus and screen effects (particularly The Guru's hypnosis) don't fill up the entire screen. Also, it is mostly fixed in the physical northern European version. Murray's bounce height was drastically decreased. This is only seen in the PSVita release, but In the "Dark Caves" mission, when exploring the second cave, the lighting is different. The Vita version does not support any of the two-player minigames. The entire game is not available on the physical release of the PS Vita version and is instead only available via digital download

|Shadow of the Colossus}||==SNES==|Some SNES games suffered from slowdown which may be fixed in ports.||Many SNES games were ported to the GBA. These versions may have extra features, but at the cost of poorer video and audio quality. The resolution is significantly lower at 240 x 160 as opposed to the usual 256 x 224 of SNES games. This leads to a smaller visible playing area, which can be devastating in some cases. The audio is much lower quality than the SNES and almost always uses inferior instrument samples for whatever reason (designated as "worse audio"). Also, most GBA games use much brighter colors to compensate for the lack of contrast in the original GBA display. To have these games display as intended, a shader or a palette patch is needed. Additionally, the GBA has two fewer buttons, leading to compromised control layouts.||Several SNES games were ported to the PlayStation. More often than not the PS1 ports offer more features. However, the CD format creates loading times. Contrary to popular belief, most of these ports are not emulated. They simply take the text and graphical assets from the SNES game ROM image on the disc, with the rest of the programming being original work. |✓{|class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;"! scope="col"|Game! scope="col"|Platforms! scope="col"|Notes|✓ (R)-|ActRaiser|Windows<br>Nintendo Switch<br>PlayStation 4<br>Xbox One||style="text-align:left;"|PS3: Stable frame-rate (30 FPS locked). runs in 720p or at an odd resolution (960x1080) if 1080i/p video is enabled on the PS3 so it may look A remake Titled "ActRaiser Renaissance" which has a little off unless you disable those video modes.

They were added back in for the digital release. There is a drastic increase in the distance between Sly and an enemy required to trigger the sneaking sound of Sly's feet and the sneaky music. It has been increased to the point where Sly will make the sneaking sound almost all the time unless all nearby enemies are defeated. This effect is amplified vertically. Almost all background music has been remixed. Some background music is impacted by de-synchronizations, most notably during "A Deadly Dance." The original background music for "Treasure in the Depths" was replaced by the music from "Burning Rubber," and the music from "A Ghastly Voyage" was put into "A Grave Undertaking.' Titled " Some of the sneaky music was replaced by its non-sneaky counterpart. Final Fantasy VI Advance"Back Alley Heist" is one example.

At the end of "Duel by the Dragon," if the player hits the fireworks clockwise, a glitch occurs where Carmelita does not speak, but the dragon head still falls, followed by the player not being able to move. The player must hit the fireworks counter-clockwise to avoid this. For the PlayStation Vita release, Matt Olsen had to re-voice the camera control tutorial that plays when the player approaches the entrance to "A Cunning Disguise" inside "Prowling the Grounds." Since the right analog stick cannot be clicked '''iOS/Android''' Translation based on the Vita, Bentley instead says, "to bring the camera behind you, tap the rear touch pad." The l1 prompt that is in front of the Bentley icon that allows the player to revisit any binocucom conversations, tips from Bentley, or PA messages from the Fiendish Five members is removed in the PS Vita GBA version, as that function has now been assigned to the touch screen. Some of the glitches redone sprites and Mode-7 sections (mostly speed-running onesRPG Maker art style) were fixed.The music for "Muggshot's Turf" has been sped up. When entering the "At the Dog Track" mission, it first plays the same music that is heard when Sly confronts Muggshot in the boss mission. It then plays the original music once the race begins.

The Dreamcast version also has exclusive mini-games, six hidden Glob Crystal collectibles, and replaces The Hall of Doors with The Isle of Doors for the world map. Michel Ancel (the Director) himself has previously stated that he believes that this version is the best version of the game.||||'''PS2:''' Titled "Rayman Revolution". Remake that completely changes the game for better and for worse. This version includes new minigames and bonus challenges, upgrades to Rayman's abilities, level revisions, new music tracks, the option to switch between the gibberish from other versions, newly recorded real language voices, and three new bosses, and Yellow Lum redistribution. The Hall of Doors was replaced with three central hubs, called The Minisaurus Plain, Globox's House, and The Rainbow Creek, in which to walk to each level freely, play Ly's bonus challenges unlocked by freeing Revolution-exclusive prisoners called Familiar Spirits, and purchase ability upgrades or the new minigames from the Teensies with the Yellow Lums the player has collected. To date, Revolution is the only edition of Rayman 2 that lets players save when a level has been only partially completed, but like all versions of the game, it still uses manual saves. This is also the only version in which the 1,000th Yellow Lum can be obtained normally. However, despite the numerous improvements and enhancements to the gameplay, the frame rate is not as smooth as the near-constant 60fps of the Sega Dreamcast version, and certain graphical effects from that version, such as the blue ring trails that accompany a fully charged gold fist orb, are also gone.

Some cutscenes where Link makes a facial expression silently have voices added to match the expressions. The ending cutscene and staff credits, which were prerendered in the original game, are now fully real-time cutscenes in the remaster. However, the smooth transition effects from the original cutscenes have been replaced by fade-to-white effects, presumably due to the difficulty of implementing the original cutscenes' transitions in real-time rendering.

Parts of the sky above the Clearleaf Forest have become black, and the color of the water has undergone strange changes.
The bonus section of the game contains an "extra" which is a gallery of the artworks seen in the Rayman Origins art booklet which came with the collector's edition.
The shadows of objects and characters have been known to glitch up, often passing directly through surfaces and appearing/disappearing at random. The shadows also sometimes are not cast according to the location of the light source, and instead, appear directly beneath the caster. The jewels and Red Lums now cast light onto the geometry around them, as opposed to the original version, where only a glowing texture was placed around them. The Grand Minimus's crown is now transparent. Level scores are now shown at the end of the boss battle sections. The game now features subtitles for the cutscenes and some other in-game dialogue.
