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) ? ? ? ?
