Potential Additional Emulators to Support

[WingofaGriffin]

I have not tested launching all of these via command personally though I figured I'd add a list of interesting active android emulators to consider adding:

Nintendo DS:

• https://github.com/DeeSEmu/DeeS
• https://github.com/Hydr8gon/NooDS

Nintendo GBA:

• https://github.com/skylersaleh/SkyEmu
• https://github.com/DeeSEmu/DeeS
• https://github.com/Hydr8gon/NooDS

Nintendo GB/C

• https://github.com/skylersaleh/SkyEmu
• https://github.com/Rodrigodd/gameroy
• https://github.com/RossMeikleham/PlutoBoy
• https://github.com/DeeSEmu/DeeS

Sega MasterSystem/Game Gear

• https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.co.philpotter.masteremu
• https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.atelieryl.wonderdroid

Nintendo Virtual Boy:

• https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.simongellis.vvb

If any of these do not launch directly via command, I'll make a git issue for the creators to consider adding.

Thanks for the nice list. Will leave this open until I tested it. (I am currently buzy 😛)

Maybe can also add VGBANext ?

GB/SGB/GBC/GBA

-n com.fms.emu/com.fms.vgb.MainActivity
-a android.intent.action.VIEW
-d {file.uri}

NES

-n com.fms.emu/com.fms.ines.MainActivity
-a android.intent.action.VIEW
-d {file.uri}

Hi, I'm the lead developer of SkyEmu. I had a few users ask about this functionality as well and I was trying to add it.

I'm hitting an issue with the interaction with scoped storage preventing me from accessing either the file.uri or the file.path provided by Daijishou (see errors below) as they seem to just be passing the raw external storage provider which I can't access under scoped storage. I was wondering how you work around this issue in other emulators that are targeting play store release (which requires scoped storage).

file.path

file.uri

Edit:

Nevermind I figured it out (needed to route the URI through an intent.action.VIEW instead of just passing it as a launch parameter), I'll post the launch string for SkyEmu here after the dev builds support the change.

[skylersaleh]

Okay, dev builds of SkyEmu supporting this are now live here: https://github.com/skylersaleh/SkyEmu/pull/321

The player am start arguments that should be used are:

-n com.sky.SkyEmu/com.sky.SkyEmu.EnhancedNativeActivity
  -a android.intent.action.VIEW
  -d {file.uri}
  --activity-clear-task
  --activity-clear-top
