==Review==
Unless For general purpose emulation, don't bother with these unless you happen to use a very old/outdated computer, these emulators are very unreliable and prone to bugs. Use the emulators in the built around [[Recommended EmulatorsEmulation Accuracy#Low_accuracy|speedhacks]] page instead where possible.    ==Review 2==There are a few of these emulators that , have been around for a long long time lower compatibility and are prone to date have very few bugs.  Personally, I've used both the No$GMB and the No$GBA in my long time of emulation. These two should not be considered "very unreliable" especially since it's one of the only fully functional competitors to VBA-M and DeSmuME.  As emulators they do exactly what you expect them to do, and with most of Use the "new" additions being developed within the last year. They are like all emulators in their infancy buggy, but since they're consistently being worked on with the last update coming October 11, 2013 they should at for the very least stay systems listed on your radar. There are a few things worth noting: 1) The No$PSX, No$GBA, and No$SNS (PSX, GBA/DS, SNES) are currently (October 2013) in active development. 2) As with most programs/emulators the more updated the better compatibility/performance.  A lot of the No$ series is relatively new (Just over a year old) while some programs have been around forever as mentioned above with No$GBA and No$GMBmain page instead.
3The main drawing point of No$ emulators is the excellent debug features they often have (only matched by the likes of [[FCEUX]]) You can , such as memory viewers and disassemblers, making it very useful for people who are into hacking games either to produce rom hacks or translations, but still marred by its lower compatibility, austere interface, and in the case of the GBC emulators, DRM (but that was long ago, everything else from No$ is 100% safe to use). They're also the place to go for features that don't get a FULL list much attention if any on other emulators, including:* PocketStation (PS1): as part of projects old No$GBA 2.7 onwards. The odd choice of emulators comes from GBA, DS and new at httpPocketStation sharing parts of the ARM architecture. Functional.* Satellaview: as part of No$SNS.* SNES-CD (Sony): as part of No$SNS. * [[GBA e-Reader emulators|e-Reader (GBA)]]: as part of No$GBA 2.4 onwards.* Link Cable (GBA)://nocashNo$GBA being the recommended option for its more stable link cable emulation support (compared to [[VisualBoy Advance#VBA-M|VBA-M]] which has lower support).emubase* Local DS Wi-Fi (DS): preliminary implementation in No$GBA.de/indexFails.* DSi: No$GBA added support for DSi games starting with version 2.8, although some games won't boot and others have graphical glitches.htm
4) There IS ==Machine Documentation==Consistently with his focus on emulators as a donation requirement for the most updebugging tool, Martin Korth provides single-todocument, consistently-date version formatted comprehensive documentation of a number of No$GBA.  As far as I'm aware you can donate literately anything to Nocash No$gba Project Donations via Paypal.  The differences are his emulated platforms, usually very little and labeled No$GBA 2.7a (Free) and No$GBA 2.7b (Donated).  Quoted from the No$ website, "It would be very nice if you could donate a few dollars (if you can't or don't want to donate that much: minimum donation amount would be US$0being an omnibus of existing resources augmented with independent research.01"
5Machines documented include:* [http://problemkaputt.de/x51specs.htm the AMT630A];* [http://problemkaputt.de/2k6specs.htm the Atari 2600];* [http://problemkaputt.de/pagezero.htm the Commodore 64, Vic-20 and TED machines];* [http://problemkaputt.de/pandocs.htm the Gameboy] (based primarily on the Pan docs) "NO$GBA" was released with ;* [http://problemkaputt.de/gbahlp.htm the Gameboy Advance only];* [http://problemkaputt.de/gbatek.htm the Gameboy Advance, Nintendo DS support on January 22, 2006and DSi];* [http://problemkaputt.de/portar. An update of htm the emulator released MSX] (based primarily on August 4, 2006, was stated by the creator to be Portar docs);* [http://problemkaputt.de/everynes.htm the NES];* [http://problemkaputt.de/psx-spx.htm the first emulator supporting commercial PS1];* [http://problemkaputt.de/fullsnes.htm the Super Nintendo DS games - From Wikipedia]; and* [http://problemkaputt.de/zxdocs.htm the ZX80, ZX81, Lambda 8300, Jupiter ACE and ZX Spectrum].
So while the No$ series may not be right for all, it should still be considered especially for those that have experience with emulation. You should also keep an eye on future developments.
