There's a list under a Hello, on the Fightcade page, its title should be "ComputersFightcade" category. Perhaps this is known, '''but all video game consoles are computers.''' A 1978 calculator is a computer. The TVs that your parents watched when they were kids were computers(most likely). I think this is kind of differentiating people's ideas of what not "computerFightCade" means, and is not a good way to describe "nonif it could be changed, thanks. -gaming purpose" computersludg1ehttps://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/FightCade

Perhaps Should we get rid of iOS’s &amp;Dagger;? While it’s still in very early development, touchHLE is already able to run at least one commercial app and it looks very promising, but it’s still a far cry from what we usually would call mobile device emulation – it’s ''very'' high-level, and it’s more of an iOS substitute that runs alongside a CPU emulator. The iOS itself isn’t even planned to be supported. I personally think that the ability to run apps should give some better replacementsalone be grounds to consider the iOS emulated, but I can see how that could be controversial.

I'm a bit disappointed to see that nobody is getting where I'm coming from. I am aware of what most people call them, but the terminology is what I propose that we go against and come up with a new way of describing these computers without making anything contrasting/different to them as "less of a computer" in the eyes of society. When someone says their smartphone is not a computer, that's someone ignorant to what a computer is (or what defines as a computer). When we further that agenda here we are just fueling that same mindset that's wrong. This is why I said let's come up with a way of categorizing these systems in a way that doesn't reflect negatively on the view of what constitutes a computer in the other categories. Just because "everyone says 'X' things are 'Y'" doesn't mean we should stray along with common beliefs. Just consider this: Is Playstation 3 a computer== How about some drastic changes? Yep. It has a microprocessor, RAM, a GPU. Does your "PC" have a microprocessor, RAM, and a GPU? Yep. Based on the latter, we can confirm that Playstation 3 is no less a computer than your desktop build ... or Gameboy Color ... or Atari even (same fundamentals, just with very limited resources). Do you consider your PS3, Vita, etc. to be "personal"? If you do, it's technically a "personal computer". This is why I'm arguing semantics here where it counts. The "PC" has no real meaning/definition ... find me one that defines what exactly makes something a "PC" and what makes it not one. People often consider "anything sitting on their desk that runs Windows" to be a PC, even though plenty of us know that OS X is compiled for the exact same architecture, has drivers for the same GPUs, and has a platform almost identical to that Windows/Linux/etc. runs on. It's just a thought, of course.==

: I also found this: http://curiosity.discovery.com/question/what-term-personal-computer How about no recommendation from now on? Also providing "General operation by a single user.compatibility" That tells us that the way most people think column instead of it is not historically correct. You can research what IBM considered "PCaccuracy" to so there will be no confusion.<br/>I meanwe're already providing info about [[PlayStation_emulators#Hardware_Features_and_Peripherals|hardware feature support, peripherals]], [[PlayStation_emulators#Arcade_variations|variations]], [[PlayStation_emulators#Enhancements|enhancements]] and how that has evolved and misled millions of people now who think "PC" constitutes form factor or don't even know what the hell it means compatibility... just that they know it means whatever the "smarter" person tells them it means. This is why I feel that terminology matters more than bullet-biting and just using the "common" (and also wrongly believed) terminology for Wiki users should decide their own favorite, no? Otherwise, itwill be total mess like [[Game_Boy/Game_Boy_Color_emulators#Emulators]].
