Do you have an old Android tablet lying around just collecting dust? Are you a gamer who enjoys playing retro games but don't have the means or space to own all those old consoles you used to play growing up? Well why not reuse that tablet to be a emulation machine! I mentioned Android since emulators are much easier to find on Google Play. Most old consoles like the NES, SNES, Sega Genesis should be able to run on any tablet with no issues. You might start to run into issues with 3D consoles like the PS1, it depends on your tablet's specs. Though I'm curious, are there any other good uses for old tablets? I'd like to hear your ideas!

I took an old iPad mini 4 and converted it to a gamepad for my wife. Emulators are easy to find for Apple devices now too. She loves it. Her favorites are Frogger and Pacman. Although she plays more than them.
