Stella is an emulator for the Atari 2600 game console, and takes its name from the console's codename. It is open source, and runs on most major modern platforms including Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Windows CE/Mobile, Dreamcast, GP2X, Nintendo DS, and Wii. Stella was originally written in 1996 by Bradford W. Mott and was originally known as Stella 96.
Stella is written in the C++ programming language and thus is highly portable. The emulator supports all Atari 2600 cartridge bank switching schemes and has support for nearly all Atari 2600 titles.

Stella emulates most Atari 2600 peripheral devices, including standard joysticks, paddle controllers, the Atari Video Touch Pad, the Atari Keyboard Controller, Atari Indy 500 Driving Controllers, the CBS Booster-Grip controller, the CX-22/CX-80/AmigaMouse trackball controllers,...
