Although there are many options includingRemix OS Player, BlueStacks and Andy OS, we will recommend getting BlueStacks since it’s the easiest one to run.

- Now click on the search button in BlueStacks and type the name of the application or game you want to get on your PC. Right now we want to get Sonic the Hedgehog, so in the search box type “Sonic the Hedgehog” and hit enter or press the search button to find it using theGoogle Play Store.
- As soon as Sonic the Hedgehog appears in the Play Store, install it. After installation, it will appear under All Apps or Android Tab > All Apps tab.

Play SNES Games Online in the highest quality available. Play Emulator has the biggest collection of Super Nintendo emulator games to play. These SNES games work in all modern browsers and can be played with no download required. EDIT: oh also Sonic Mania plus was playable in Yuzu sometime last year (I played all the way through Encore mode) but it seems a regression crept in and now it can't boot at all with the 1.04 update applied. It's been like this for months so it's probably safe to just go with a 'No' for that.
