The puNES "recommendation" reads off a bit hostile now.
===Comparisons===
*[[PuNES]] is the most accurate NES emulator according to tests.<ref name="nestas">http://tasvideos.org/EmulatorResources/NESAccuracyTests.html</ref> These test ROMs used for determining accuracy in tests unfortunately, donThat't test everything s not to say that matters for accurate emulation (and in some casesit will generate an absolutely perfect experience compared to actual hardware. Still, test stuff that doesn't matter for emulating any games). So just because an it should be the emulator has high ratings doesn't mean it is free of issueschoice for those who desire the utmost accuracy.
*[[Nestopia]] has a high ranking in those same tests.<ref name="nestas"/> Nestopia has issues with The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles and doesn't display the status bar in Mickey's Safari in Letterland correctly among other problems. Nestopia Undead Edition (abv. Nestopia UE) is a fork of Nestopia meant to keep it alive and fixes the aforementioned bugs. This is generally the recommended standalone version. The libretro core for Nestopia fixes all known graphical glitches with the emulator.
*[[FCEUX]] scores fairly low in the same tests, despite being a recommended emulator on TAS Videos. The New PPU is more accurate than the Old PPU, however. The emulator is still useful, though, thanks to its robust Lua scripting features and incorporating FCEUmm into its feature set.
