{{InfoboxWhy are Nintendulator, Nestopia and FCEUX recommended? |image = DolphinI just tried out all the recommended emulators and Mesen and PuNES seem a lot better.

Standalone is okay but puNES and Mesen are much better these days. If either of those two were to become Libretro cores then I couldn't see recommending Nestopia at all. As for FCEUX and Nintendulator, I have no idea. -emu.org/ Dolphin-emu.org[[User:Random Encounter|Random Encounter]]|sixth = ([[httpsUser talk://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin GitHubRandom Encounter|talk]]}}'''Dolphin''' is an open source GameCube) 14:17, Wii and Triforce 3 September 2016 (the arcade machine based on the GameCubeUTC) emulator which supports many extra features and abilities not present on the original consoles.

==Netplay==1. Can we cut the description of the FDS down to a line and keep all the talkative bits about it under its peripheral subheader? I realize I'm guilty of nearly doubling its number of lines, but that's before I read the whole page and discovered it already had a home.
{{Main|How To Play Dolphin Online}}2. There appears to be a dick-measuring contest going on in a footnote between proponents of mesen and puNES re the number of mappers each supports. Can I just say each supports mappers the other doesn't or would that be untrue?
==Widescreen==[[File:Dolphin_Swiss3.gif|200px|thumb|right|Instructional animation on how to use Swiss with Dolphin. Click to view.]]Built into Dolphin The assertion that VC NES emulation is somehow accurate in any way (simply because Nintendo did it) I find highly suspect (considering what is a native widescreen feature, known about their approach to enable 16:9 output in games. However, this rarely works without issues. To get widescreen fully natively, try [[Emulator_Files#GameCube.2FWii|Swiss]]. This can even be run on a real GameCube/Wii if desiredother consoles such as the SNES and N64).Can anyone back that up?

Pretty much no VC emulator is accurate, barring GBA on the 3DS since it uses hardware, and GBA on the Wii U is decent as well, due to being coded by a third party. Also would be nice if the FDS info was still on the page, just somewhere else. The FDS versions of many games were superior to the American cart releases, and it would be good for people to know that. [[User:Syboxez|Syboxez]] ([[User talk:Syboxez|talk]]) I went ahead and finished editing and polishing. Thank you for your (somewhat belated) response.
