Practically it is the same, instead of downloading the game and running it locally, you have it run in your web browser. And yes, inviting a friend at your house, to play with you, or having them borrow a physical copy is fine as well, until at least all console games go 100% digital.

Playing a game online, the way you describe it, is no different than downloading a game.

I believe the Odin Pro uses Android, and that could limit you a bit in terms of choices. The Steam Deck is Linux based and that has more options in terms of emulators. Yes, the Deck will require more "tweaking" for each emulator, as it is pretty much a PC in a hand held form factor.

As long as you are being transparent about the monetization, it should be ok. But it also depends on the type of community.

Wow...! For the record, almost nobody plays physical media nowadays through an emulator. Given that it is no longer 2004, like your original post, and storage capacity is not as big of an issue as back then, people just make a dump of the CD/DVD and run that through the emulator

You only have one choice, Xemu. Feel free to check the compatibility list and see if it covers the games you want: https://xemu.app/#compatibility

First of all, you are correct and you will need to buy/use dev mode for emulators. As for the game in question, I am afraid there are no PS3 emulators for the xbox yet.

I am afraid we cannot help you in finding those games

It would help if you told us what file you downloaded exactly, that is a very odd problem.

Glad to see it worked out for you, but I only had bad experiences with using the xbox game bar in the past.

Money is not really a good factor to judge this. First you need to check what specifications/requirements those steam games have. But as for the 80/90s part, if it can run those steam games, then those should run fine as well.

I would say, go for Playstation emulation. PS1 and PS2 should not pose any issues, they have lots of features and once you learn how they work you will be fine. As for PS3, you may want to check the compatibility list for any games you are interested.

I usually grab my builds from the github releases, whenever there is a new one. https://github.com/visualboyadvance-m/visualboyadvance-m
