You probably mean WSA, Windows Subsystem for Android, only available on Windows 11… for another month. At which point support for it will be dropped[0]. It's a bit sad 'cause I, myself, do use it for a few things. Also, by default it required installing the Amazon Appstore, which I don't think is available for download anymore. So the only way to use it now would be to use the script from the MagiskOnWSA[1] which downloads it somehow, and at the same time, installs Magisk. If that even works.

Depending on what aspects of that you enjoyed, you might also enjoy this similar Bad Apple implementation on the NES. With the extra challenge of it being done through ACE in Super Mario Bros. and all data being streamed in through the controller. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfG8DbxFibY
