: The SDK includes a built-in emulator that allows you to run and debug VXP projects directly on your PC before deploying them to a handset. : Development is primarily done in 2. Specialized VXP Emulators
While not a dedicated VXP emulator, certain cores within the RetroArch ecosystem are being developed to support older mobile formats. It is worth checking the current core list for MRE or MediaTek support. How to Use a VXP Emulator: A Quick Guide
As technology progressed, feature phones were replaced by Android and iOS devices. Because these modern operating systems do not natively support MRE software, a VXP emulator is required to bridge the gap. People use these emulators to:

The next frontier for the is the browser. Projects like VXP.js (based on Emscripten) compile the entire emulator to WebAssembly. This allows:
There are several third-party applications available for Android that act as a wrapper for VXP content. These apps attempt to recreate the MRE environment on top of the Android OS. Portable; allows gaming on the go.
