'''Nestopia UE''' is a [[Emulation Accuracy|cycle-accurate]] [[Nintendo Entertainment System emulators|Famicom (NES)]] emulator. Unlike most cycle-accurate emulators, Nestopia allows graphical enhancements such as texture scaling and TV filters, as well as netplay support. It's one of the most popular and most compatible emulators around. It is also available as a libretro core for [[RetroArch]].

==ReviewOverview==Windows XP users report problems with vsync and [[input lag]]. These issues do not exist in the Linux or [[RetroArch]] ports.
==NetPlay==Uses KailleraIt is ranked as the second most accurate Famicom emulator, with 1.40 scoring a score of 82.3%.<ref>http://tasvideos.org/EmulatorResources/NESAccuracyTests.html</ref>. Only [[PuNES]] has a higher score on these tests. However these test ROMs, unfortunately, 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.
