Emulator:	Windows Mobile : MorphGear 2.4.0.9	SmartGear 0.12	PocketEngine 1.0 beta 1	XPCE ver0.22	bfEngine v0.1b	YameCE 0.38g	Desktop Windows (and, in cases, other OS’es): Ootake 1.03	Magic Engine v1.0.0 pr10	Yame 0.38	Xe (Build: Nov 1, 2006)
Verdict	Not the fastest and fully compatible, but at least supports Landscape and has no known bugs (except for being incompatible with some titles). What is more, it’s free.	Very fast and, unlike with NES emulation, Landscape-capable. Also, it runs all the three Bonk titles. However, it’s not VGA-compliant and, of course, doesn’t support on-screen tap areas.	Unfortunately, the Button 1 bug (upon pressing Button 1 to bring up the GUI it crashes the mobile completely on all the supported platforms) makes it very hard to use on WM2003+. Unfortunately, it doesn't support loading / saving game states either, which means you'll need to restart your games from the beginning, which, unless they offer explicit RAM-backed load/save capabilities, is really awkward with some titles. Otherwise, it’d be excellent, mostly because of the Landscape support and sufficiently large on-screen tap areas (in Landscape).	The awfully desynched sound makes this a bad choice – unless you are ready to play without sound.	Pretty useless: bad compatibility ratio; has no sound	Useless on ARM because of the lacking PE support and the impossibility of getting earlier, on ARM, PE-capable version. 0.38g is only usable on MIPS (preferably an E-750 overclocked to 280 MHz.)	Bonk’s (Big) Adventure don’t work (Revenge does); everything else too; not compatible with Hi-Res	Able to run everything. Too bad it’s commercial.	As with the WM port, it doesn’t emulate the three Bonk games; otherwise, all is OK, including high-res stuff	Emulates everything, including high-res stuff. Recommended! Also contains support for several other consoles.

Save / load game state	9 slots; can save/load any time	When enabled in Options / Settings / Auto Load/Save, it'll automatically save / reload the game state upon loading a ROM. Unfortunately, if you load another ROM in the meantime, this won't work. Also, enabling this feature will cause for example Bonk 3 - Bonk's Big Adventure not to load. Therefore, you may want to disable this feature if you encounter unloadable gams. The same stands for resetting a game: if you don't assin the Reset functinality to a hardware button (beause, say, there are too few - less than 5 - of them), quickly unticking this checkbox and reloading the ROM will be the solution.	-	One state per ROM (File / Save State and Load State)	-	5 states (File / Save State and Load State)	+	+	+	+
