Comparisons

  • Mednafen is great. It has two PCE cores: PCE-Fast and PCE-Accurate. It also has a PC-FX core. Its main version is command line. pcejin is a version of Mednafen's PC Engine emulation for Windows with GUI. Linux users should use Mednafen with a GTK GUI[1].
  • Ootake is okay for general purposes.
  • RetroArch can run Mednafen's PCE-Fast core.
  • MagicEngine only has a free demo available. The full version costs €15 EUR. There is no reason to buy it when there are better free options available.
