You are right about the emulator page. on these page, we could link to the officiel page, wrappers, hacked versions of a emulator, so it can get this to work on a cab. | You are right about the emulator page. on these page, we could link to the officiel page, wrappers, hacked versions of a emulator, so it can get this to work on a cab. | ||

The table we used in table and frontend, can it not been used in the emulator page as well? Like this?
This page contains brief descriptions of various emulators for each console. If more information is needed for a particular emulator, an individual page will be created.
| Company | Machine & Wikipedia link | Players | Control Type | Nr of Buttons | Cabfriedly Emulator(s) |
| 3DO Company | 3DO_Interactive_Multiplayer | ? | ? | ? | ? |
| Atari | Atari 2600 | 2 | Digital | 1 | ? |
| Atari | Atari 5200 | ? | Analog | ? | MESS |
| Atari | Atari 7800 | ? | ? | ? | MESS |
| Atari | Atari Jaguar | ? | ? | ? | ? |
| Bally | Astrocade Bally Astrocade | ? | ? | ? | MESS |
We should only list machines and emulator, that can fit into a cabinet. Otherwice there are other page, that are lots better doing that (like Zophar). Spacefractal
I like that, it give a nice overview of consoles and direct information. The emulator page should always point to a page in this wiki, in my opinion, there is most certainly cab related info for each emulator (perhaps have links to front-ends that support this emulator etc.) Another idea: have an alternating colour backdrop to keep brands (especially Atari, Nintendo and Sega) together like this:
| Company | Machine & Wikipedia link | Players | Control Type | Nr of Buttons | Cabfriedly Emulator(s) |
| 3DO Company | 3DO_Interactive_Multiplayer | ? | ? | ? | ? |
| Atari | Atari 2600 | 2 | Digital | 1 | ? |
| Atari | Atari 5200 | ? | Analog | ? | MESS |
| Atari | Atari 7800 | ? | ? | ? | MESS |
| Atari | Atari Jaguar | ? | ? | ? | ? |
| Bally | Bally Astrocade | ? | ? | ? | MESS |
| Bandai | Bandai Atmark (Apple Pippin) | ? | ? | ? | ? |

Yep, your right. We could even change the table to this one (Each company have one cell):
| Company | Machine & Wikipedia link | Players | Control Type | Nr of Buttons | Cabfriedly Emulator(s) |
| 3DO Company | 3DO_Interactive_Multiplayer | ? | ? | ? | ? |
| Atari | Atari 2600 |
? ? |
Digital Analog |
? ? |
? |
| Bally | Bally Astrocade | ? | ? | ? | MESS |
| Bandai | Bandai Atmark (Apple Pippin) | ? | ? | ? | ? |
Wich table version do you like most?
You are right about the emulator page. on these page, we could link to the officiel page, wrappers, hacked versions of a emulator, so it can get this to work on a cab.
