The table we used in table and frontend, can it not been used in the emulator page as well? Like this?

#REDIRECT [[Talk:Classic Consoles]]
 
 
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.

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). [[user:Spacefractal|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:

Yep, your right. We could even change the table to this one (Each company have one cell):

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.
