Emulating even simpler systems, like old 8 bit computers required a fair amount of CPU resources on the host computer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is however to a large extent a problem of the past. Most modern computers, and even handhelds have enough CPU power to allow the emulators to be written in e.g. Java instead of C. Perhaps some optimizations may be required that reduces the accuracy of the emulation, but most of the time this is not a big issue as most games play just fine and the small inaccuracies aren&amp;#39;t really visible to the user.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Online emulation does as you say give a much more flexible way of distributing the emulator and makes it more cross platform.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The alternative is of course to port the emulator to a specific handheld. Most PC based emulators are fairly easy to port, but still it takes time and tuning, while an online emulator is more or less plug and play.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5350320546754695211/8149463293229568480/comments/default/2772147774856412883'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5350320546754695211/8149463293229568480/comments/default/2772147774856412883'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.danielvik.com/2010/04/cycle-accurate-computer-emulation.html?showComment=1307493497028#c2772147774856412883' title=''/><author><name>Daniel Vik</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13059236177797348097</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T9_5SMKEUXk/S3WNGIMojjI/AAAAAAAAAAM/MbmYniFDOv8/S220/danielvik.jpg'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.danielvik.com/2010/04/cycle-accurate-computer-emulation.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5350320546754695211.post-8149463293229568480' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5350320546754695211/posts/default/8149463293229568480' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-719728608'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5350320546754695211.post-6949345992725292781</id><published>2011-06-07T03:12:32.175-07:00</published><updated>2011-06-07T03:12:32.175-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Online ‘emulation’ is a new area now being explore...</title><content type='html'>Online ‘emulation’ is a new area now being explored. The idea is that you simply play the game in your browser through a Java applet or Flash application. These might not always strictly be emulated programs but many remakes are feature perfect with the originals. The graphics, sounds, and game play remain intact. Using emulator software with your PSP isn&amp;#39;t exactly as simple as it first sounds however. First of all you will need to download some Emulation software for your PSP. This software basically lets you download and use the games from other systems on your PSP. Once you&amp;#39;ve managed to download PSP emulator software, you will then need to find some games to use it with. &lt;a href="http://www.euroffice.co.uk/g/002/Ink-Cartridges-and-Toners/HP/" rel="nofollow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;HP toners&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5350320546754695211/8149463293229568480/comments/default/6949345992725292781'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5350320546754695211/8149463293229568480/comments/default/6949345992725292781'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.danielvik.com/2010/04/cycle-accurate-computer-emulation.html?showComment=1307441552175#c6949345992725292781' title=''/><author><name>Julian</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16669286973973447671</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.danielvik.com/2010/04/cycle-accurate-computer-emulation.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5350320546754695211.post-8149463293229568480' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5350320546754695211/posts/default/8149463293229568480' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-1997611490'/></entry></feed>
