Review

Yabause is not a very compatible emulator, even with the amount of development that has gone into it. If using Windows, it is best to instead use SSF. However, because of Yabause's multi-platform, open-source nature, it might be more healthy on the behalf of the Saturn emulation scene to support Yabause in the long term.
