;WatarooA more traditional-looking, fully-featured emulator developed by renowned Atari homebrewer Osman D. after he lost a bet. Like Potator (SDL2), the emulation is pretty spot-on, but despite having really low system requirements, working even under Windows 95, it may chug on less powerful PCs. ;[[MAME]]:Runs relatively fine, but the sound emulation isn’t quite there yet. This is especially bad with ''Classic Casino''’s sampled speech.

===Comparisons===
;Potator
:The first Supervision emulator, originally developed for Windows using SDL. Surprisingly old, it was last updated in 2005. The sound emulation is only preliminary and there are a lot of bugs and inaccuracies.
;:Potator2x
;:PotatorDS
;:This emulator is pretty much just a proof-of-concept. It is extremely slow and there is no sound. There is no UI either, and no option to choose a ROM – it always reads from <code>/sv/test.sv</code>.
;Wataroo
:A more traditional-looking, fully-featured emulator developed by renowned Atari homebrewer Osman D. after he lost a bet. Like Potator (SDL2), the emulation is pretty spot-on, but despite having really low system requirements, working even under Windows 95, it may chug on less powerful PCs.
;Wasabi
:Another slow and silent proof-of-concept, Wasabi was originally released in 2004 as a plugin for the PogoShell flashcart CFW system. The developer picked it back up in late 2022, porting it to the Nintendo DS through devkitPro and then porting it back to the GBA. The latest versions seem to be relatively accurate, with the dev claiming to have full compatibility with the entire commercial library, including the Magnum exclusive. However, the GBA port is still very slow and has no sound, and the DS version seems to have its speed limiter set slightly too fast, with all non-sampled sounds playing in an accordingly higher pitch. The GBA version requires [https://github.com/patters-match/gba-emu-compilation-builders building a compilation] to load ROMs.
