Just like the title says, are there any decent Android emulators with cover support? Right now I'm thinking NES, SNES, Genesis and N64.

no problem, btw check your inbox if you havent youre signatures been removedThanks everyone for your help! The OUYA died and that was going to be "baby's first console" (my daughter) but now that I have this other Android box, I figured I would set it up with some classics for her. I'm sure it would be another year before she really starts playing stuff but if her navigation of YouTube, today is any indication, she's a quick learner! Kids, man! They really do make you wonder about the evolutionary process of humanity.
indeed.What do you mean by emulator with cover support? As for what emulators i have used. There is a set of emulators by EX+alpha that is on google play, sadly only the snes9x one is free. But if you have ouya, then all of them are free on there, just back up the apps and then side load it with esfile explorer onto any android device. Otherwise you may just have to use retroarch, which i would always recommend last.
I'm not aware of any Emulators that have a sort of 'cover' support; I only use SNES9x and MyBoy, as well as Mupen64. But, that's about it. None of them have any sort of Cover support, although PPSSPP does seem to have some sort of 'Game Icon' or per say Cover support.
Use dra6onfires Nostalgia (zamastyle) frontend. Supports many emulators all with covers and junk. Born on OUYA, now on android. Googleplay store.
Im sure you know of it, lighty.
Im surprised yer asking (not to sound dickish).
Those free console emulators by that explus alpha(See previous post) Are your best bet on ouya. I instantly imported to my shield tv and both work pretty well, the ouya is good since it can use wii controllers, but the shield has slight performance advantage and even slight better controls. So either way i use those a lot.The only emulation I really did on OUYA was PSP (and PPSSPP already supports game icons) and Dreamcast. About 80% of the gaming I did on OUYA was Android games

I tried ppsspp on it, but power stone works like a bit of a butt compared to shield, i didn't even bother with dream cast cause of the pathehic storage capacity. 6GB is so awful, compared to others, I accidentally bought a PSX emulator, it was okay but epsxe port is godlike especially on shield. I was gonna try it on ouya if i can find some way to get more storage.
I guess what i didn't realize was that your aim was to create something simple to use for children more like that NES classic and how it has the game title and cover box art to show each game for easy navigation. While i never came across anything like that on android, i understand a bit better about what you were asking. The problem is not many emulators have things like that which i guess help add to presentation and simple stuff for anyone to use. Though the ones i suggested do perform well, is not exactly glory in the presentation department with just words and stuff.I'll keep that in mind but my OUYA died two weeks ago lol. I'm actually working with a generic android Box. So far I have TV launcher and all Icons on it looking well. I was just trying to setup a few emulated games for my little girl. This is her device, I personally use a Fire TV 2 for all of my Android needs and so far it has accepted everything I tossed at it .
