Emulators are software that allows players to play games that are designed for other consoles.
For example: If you want to play Nintendo games but don’t have a Nintendo console then you won’t be able to play the game.
But emulators allow your device to work like another console or operating system and use software and games that are only available in that specific operating system or console.
One of these emulators is the Cemu Emulator.
What is a Cemu Emulator?
Cemu is a Wii U emulator that allows players to play all of the Nintendo games in high quality.
This emulator is closed-source and developed by Exzap and Petergov.
If you love to play Nintendo games but don’t have a console, don’t worry you can play your favorite Nintendo games on your PC by using the Cemu emulator.
