Features on recommended WonderSwan/WS Color emulators:
- BANDAI WONDERSWAN 101: A BEGINNER’S GUIDE (July 6th, 2007 by racketboy; updated June 19th, 2018. Old feature covering early WonderSwan emulation. OSwan and WSCamp were the recommended emulators according to the article. Both are too old by now and not recommended.)
