*[[Mesen|Mesen]] is a [[Emulation_accuracy|cycle-accurate]] NES emulator. Also, it is very user-friendly and supports lots of [[#Enhancements|enhancements]], [[#Peripherals|peripherals]], [[#Hardware_variants|variants]] and [[#Mappers|mappers]] that other emulators are missing. It also supports [[GoodTools|goodmerged]]. Latest versions require [https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet .NET 6]. This is the most compatible NES emulator of the cycle-accurate variety.

*[[Nestopia]] also is a [[Emulation_accuracy|cycle-accurate]] NES/FDS emulator. Nestopia has issues with [[Wikipedia:The_Young_Indiana_Jones_Chronicles_(video_game)|''The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles'']] and doesn't display the status bar in [[Wikipedia:Mickey%27s_Safari_in_Letterland|''Mickey's Safari in Letterland'']] correctly (among other problems). Nestopia Undead Edition is a fork of Nestopia meant to keep it alive and fix the aforementioned bugs. This version is generally recommended over vanilla. Even the libretro core for Nestopia is the Undead Edition.

*[[FCEUX]] is a [[Emulation_accuracy|highly-accurate]] NES/FDS emulator and it supports lots of [[#Mappers|unlicensed mappers]], on top of this it's a [https://tasvideos.org/EmulatorResources recommended emulator on TAS Videos]. The New PPU implementation is more [[Emulation_accuracy|accurate]] than the Old PPU implementation. The emulator is very useful; thanks to its robust Lua scripting and incorporating FCEUmm into its feature set.

*BeesNES is aiming for [[Emulation_accuracy|subcycle accuracy]].
