Gaming on Android is pretty limited when you think about it. Most native Android games aren’t exactly designed for the serious gamer – this is mostly because Android is a mobile platform and not a gaming platform. However, most Android devices have pretty impressive specs and can probably run a whole lot of old games.
Which is the premise behind emulators. Emulators are programs designed to mimic old gaming console environments. This means you can play any number of old games as long as you have the appropriate ROM for it. This gave Android gamers access to an incredibly large library of games. The most popular of these emulators are the -oid series, comprising of Nesoid, Snesoid, Gensoid, N64oid, Ataroid, Gearoid and Gameboid, each emulating their particular console, all of which were developed by yongzh.
