Gamers have long used emulators to make their home pc into their personal video arcade, but until recently pocket pc emulators have been lacking. Fortunately for the gamer in all of us, that is beginning to change. The growing popularity of PDA's, particularly among young people, means that software vendors are paying more attention to the vast market for pocket pc emulators.
The pocket pc emulators on the market today can allow the PDA owner to emulate the Atari system, MAME, Nintendo and Game Boy among others. Game playing is an important and growing use for PDA's, and a good emulator can make the PDA fun as well as useful.
