Nestopia allows graphical enhancements such as texture scaling and TV filters, as well as netplay support. The original project hasn't been updated since 2008, but Nestopia UE is a fork that is still active and has fixed several issues.

==Overview== | ==Overview== | ||
Nestopia shows its age in some aspects of its design, but still remains an excellent choice for its system given its cycle accuracy and extensive feature set. An external cheat code pack is available which is one of the best of its type for any system. Nestopia even supports netplay, albeit using the antiquated Kaillera system. | |||
According to TASVideos, Nestopia is ranked as the fifth most accurate NES emulator, with 1.40 scoring a score of 82.3%.<ref>http://tasvideos.org/EmulatorResources/NESAccuracyTests.html</ref> Other NES/FDS emulators, such as [[Mesen]] and [[puNES]], have higher scores on these tests. However, these test ROMs don't test everything that matters for accurate emulation (and in some cases, test stuff that doesn't matter for emulating any games). So the test results may be a bit misleading, but that does not mean it is not a high accuracy emulator. | According to TASVideos, Nestopia is ranked as the fifth most accurate NES emulator, with 1.40 scoring a score of 82.3%.<ref>http://tasvideos.org/EmulatorResources/NESAccuracyTests.html</ref> Other NES/FDS emulators, such as [[Mesen]] and [[puNES]], have higher scores on these tests.

*'''Name Origins''': Nestopia is probably a portmanteau of [[Nintendo_Entertainment_System_emulators|NES]] and [[Wikipedia:Utopia|Utopia]]. | |||
