Written by sara bailey
The Sony PS3 is a powerful video game system that plays games using its Blu-ray drive. The PS3 also makes use of a hard drive and USB storage expansion to play other software that can be run from the PS3. Emulators are programs that allow you to run other video game console's games from a computer or other electronic device. For example, you can run Super Nintendo games from the PS3 using an emulator. These emulators have been available to install on the PS3 since the PS3's release in 2006. However, you needed to first install Linux on the PS3's "Other OS" option. You can now install emulators on the PS3's game's OS using the install packages.
