higan's bsnes and bgba cores are its most developed/accurate. The Nintendo 8-bit cores are very early in development, and are inferior to other existing emulators; alternatives include [[Gambatte]], [[BGB]], [[Mesen]], [[puNES]], and [[Nestopia]]. Bgba has made amazing strides from v095 on, getting very close to mGBA accuracy. higan also features a WonderSwan/WonderSwan Color core as of v098, which yields satisfactory results. The library-based GUI is not for everyone, though, and doesn't support drag and drop like a lot of other emulators do. | higan's bsnes and bgba cores are its most developed/accurate.

He | Near noticed that higan's UI is not for everybody and made a standalone version of [[bsnes]] that is developed in parallel with higan's SNES core and has a Qt UI that's just like the earlier versions. He also worked on the new multi-system emulator [[byuu (emulator)|byuu]] that aims to combine higan with the ease of use of bsnes. For those that still aren't satisfied, [[RetroArch]] has its own libretro cores of higan and bsnes to use with its interface. | ||

'''[https://gitlab.com/hex-usr/nSide nSide]''' is a fork of higan that, among other things, adds support for more boards such as the Atari 2600 as well as peripherals and the VS. UniSystem to the NES core. It also retains the SNES Balanced core and thus makes available new improvements to higan, such as the WASAPI driver and the IIR-Biquad interpolation filter, to users whose computers cannot run the Accuracy core-only releases from higan v098 onwards with full speed. | '''[https://gitlab.com/hex-usr/nSide nSide]''' is a fork of higan that, among other things, adds support for more boards such as the Atari 2600 as well as peripherals and the VS.
