About

BizHawk is a free and open-source multi-system emulator, originating from the United States, that is predominantly designed for the production of Tool Assisted Speedruns (TAS). It distinguishes itself by focusing on core accuracy and providing power user tools such as a Hex Editor and Lua scripting, while simultaneously offering an easy-to-use experience for casual gaming. Available on Windows and Linux platforms, BizHawk is highly regarded by users as the best and most accurate alternative for emulating most old systems, and it falls squarely within the game-consoles category. The project maintains an active community presence through its GitHub repository and Facebook page.
