I could not find any reliable secondary sources. For the sources in the article:

10 is sourced to an article that also only mentions the software once. QuietCicada chirp 15:03, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak keep Found an article in Win Magazine, and a paragraph in CD-Action. Combining that with the Digital Trends mention I think it weakly passes GNG. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 15:12, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Per sources discovered by Mika1h. I am no longer weakly in support of it given the Softonic reviews that have come to light. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 21:19, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Keep - Digital Trends' one paragraph isn't what I would consider significant coverage. Win Magazine article starts talking about the emulator only at halfway point so it's basically similar to Digital Trends in word count. CD-Action is the best of the three but still not especially beefy article. Not enough to pass GNG with these three sources. --Mika1h (talk) 16:34, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  @Mika1h: I also found a Softpedia review of the emulator. That is considered a reliable source as well, maybe it will change your view. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 18:01, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Softpedia does reviews on request so I don't count their reviews towards notability. --Mika1h (talk) 18:30, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Changed to keep since I found some reviews for a variant of the emulator by Softonic: [1], [2], also a list entry from Pocket Gamer: [3]. --Mika1h (talk) 19:05, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
