WiiSX is just awful. I wouldn't recommend it, even as the only emu on the wii

[[RetroArch]] uses a Mednafen PSX core and includes some bonuses, such as superior synch, strong shader support and a built in frontend.
Much easier to use than the standalone, so it's recommended.
 
[[PCSX-R]] is actively developed (though mostly OSX and Linux versions), and is open source. Also a plugin based emulator similar to ePSXe, but is active and has more features. It has a widescreen hack, rewind save feature , fewer glitches, proper [[Cue_sheet_(.cue)#Multi-track_game|multitrack CUE]] support, and support for superior [[Recommended_PSX_Plugins|plugins]], such as LilyPad. Though please do note if you actually find an issue, as whatever it is could likely be looked into through their [http://pcsxr.codeplex.com/workitem/list/ issue tracker]. However, the Windows version is currently unmaintained and doesn't have newer features that OSX/Linux have.<ref>https://pcsxr.codeplex.com/discussions/542531</ref><ref>https://pcsxr.codeplex.com/discussions/542581</ref><ref>https://pcsxr.codeplex.com/discussions/542614</ref><ref>https://pcsxr.codeplex.com/discussions/540312</ref>
[[XEBRA]] has very high compatibility. Games that require subchannel data are not supported, but most other games run flawlessly. Obtuse user interface as the developer is Japanese, so be prepared. ARBEX is an alternate build of XEBRA that doesn't require a PSX bios.

[[EPSXe|ePSXe]] is a fairly standard plugin based emulator, and since it's closed source it only gets updates from the main developers, and only a few minor updates once every few years. Though 1.8.0's biggest addition was the Android version's advertisement. Closed source, focused on profit, and out dated. Although the basic program is near identical to PCSXR there are subtle differences, and ePSXe does have less features. Once the king of PSX emulation; like ZSNES it retains its high usage out of sheer notoriety.
