TeknoParrot currently supports over 170 arcade titles and many PC-based arcade boards, and the emulation of these and more titles continue to be improved.* [https://teknogods.github.io/ compatibility.html Official compatibility GitHub page] (Created in 2019 or 2020. A vast improvement over the old, internal wiki-style multi-page lists.)

* Gaelco PC -based hardware (2003-2005)

There are arcade video game network systems from several companies that allow arcade vendors the ability to download a game into their cabinet, as opposed to just replacing the whole cabinet when they want a new game. TeknoParrot supports many games from the following digital distribution platforms:

*[https://apm.sega.jp/ ALL.Net P-ras MULTI] ([https://segaretro.org/ALL.Net Sega's network]. Sega's digital distribution system for arcade games in Japan, utilizing the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ALL.Net ALL.Net] online service. Games mainly from Sega and Bandai Namco, some times sometimes third parties. Emulated since [https://www.patreon.com/posts/teknoparrot-1-dx-20038056 1.60a].)

Since version 1.66 of TeknoParrot was released publicly on in [https://www.patreon.com/posts/teknoparrot-1-66-21295857?utm_medium=post_notification_email&utm_source=post_link&utm_campaign=patron_engagement early September 2018], the Teknogods team released a partially open-source version of the emulator to allow more people to contribute to it. These two open-source pieces of software, that were launched, are called "[https://github.com/teknogods/OpenParrot OpenParrot]" and "[https://github.com/teknogods/TeknoParrotUI TeknoParrotUI]" (GUI for Windows that works with both TeknoParrot and OpenParrot).

TeknoParrot has been changed to rolling update now. New features would be pushed to the built-in updater when it's available, and the TeknoParrot website only hosts a certain version and an online installer called TPBootStrapper. Users could either use TPBootStrapper to download and install the lastest latest version, or download a legacy version and then upgrade to the latest one via the built-in updater.

Multi-JVS support that enable enables up to 4 connected players to play a game together through TeknoParrot . It was first added for the game to ''Virtua Tennis 4'' in [https://www.patreon.com/posts/teknoparrot-1-19124288 version 1.52c] (May 30, 2018).

However, TeknoParrot lacks emulation for official cloud saving/multiplayer features presented in some games such as All.Net (SEGA), NESYS (Taito), eAmusement (Konami), etc., which would cause some games to be unable to save progress (at least in an orthodox way), unlock features/contents, and/or joining join Internet multiplayer games. TeknoParrot is now working on the emulation of the All.Net and Bana Passport server for some games, and this feature currently requires Patreon support.
