Overview
byuu is an upcoming multi-system emulator that aims to provide the accuracy of higan, with the ease-of-use of bsnes.
It seeks to accomplish this by catering to the common 99% of use cases, rather than higan, which tries to cater to every niche. As such, certain advanced functionality will not be available in byuu; however, the emulator will be significantly easier to use, like bsnes.
Unlike bsnes, byuu will also put accuracy at the forefront, at least at first, to uphold Near's vision for emulator design. This means that byuu will have higher system requirements and less enhancements than bsnes, but it will still aim to offer more features than higan.
Essentially, think of it as the bridge between two extremes. The goal is to build on the success of bsnes, and to offer an easy-to-use interface for all of Near's emulator cores, rather than just for the SNES alone.
