| Fact | EmulatorJS | GameEx |
|---|---|---|
| Integrations | The project describes itself as a library or plugin rather than a standalone website and says it does not provide a Docker container. | The feature list names Steam, EA Origin, Uplay, iTunes, Windows Media Player, GameBase, GameEx Arcade and TMDb API use. |
| Purpose | EmulatorJS is a web-based frontend for RetroArch that lets users embed an emulator in a website. | GameEx is an arcade and emulator front end for MAME, GameBase, Daphne, PC games and command-line emulators, and also offers HTPC features. |
| Support | The project directs users to report issues on GitHub and include browser console logs and the version they use. | The maker says commercial support and customizations are available and in many cases provided free of charge. |
EmulatorJS suits site owners who want to embed a RetroArch-based emulator and customize it for supported systems. Users should be comfortable serving a web page and configuring response headers if they want threaded cores.
GameEx suits people looking for an emulator front end that also includes media features and HTPC functions. Users planning Linux or Mac use should note that WINE support is experimental and alpha builds may lack features.
