High accuracy
===High accuracy===
High accuracy is a level of precision that emulator developers strive for when achieving [[#Cycle_accuracy|cycle accuracy]] or even [[#Partial cycle-accuracy|partial-cycle accuracy]] is not practical or necessary. In this This approach, the emulator replicates the components of focuses on replicating the original system 's components as closely accurately as possible, aiming for a faithful reproduction to faithfully reproduce its behavior while staying mindful of the system's behaviorhardware demands. The pursuit of high accuracy often results in the need for Though it may demand more processing power, leading to pursuing a more accurate emulation experience can pay off in the form of fewer audio and visual audiovisual glitches and improved better handling of edge cases used by niche scenarios that creative game programmersoften implement. Emulators with Though they don't mimic every clock cycle precisely as cycle-accuracy: high -accuracy may or may not be cycle-accurate, but they generally exhibit a notable level emulators capture the essence of fidelity to the original hardwarevery well. Achieving Also achieving 100% compatibility with commercially released games is a common goal for emulators with high accuracy. Some of these emulators even represent an even more meticulous level of precision in replicating the original system compared to other highly accurate emulators, aiming to achieve an even closer match to the behavior of the original hardwaresimilar to partial-cycle accuracy. This heightened level of accuracy often involves more sophisticated techniques, demanding increased computational resources. The distinction between high and very high accuracy lies in the finer details and nuances that very high accuracy seeks to capture, resulting in an emulation experience that minimizes any discrepancies or artifacts compared to the original system. Emulators with very high accuracy may be especially appealing to users seeking an unparalleled level of authenticity and completeness in their emulation experience.
