<nowiki>*</nowiki> AoEX is based on NesterJ 1.12 Plus 0.61 RM, so it includes features like rewind, cheat code support, rotated/mirrored screen, sepia palette, support for rare mappers (the pirate bootleg FF7 works on it), etc. Its compatibility is inferior to 1.13 beta 2.<br><nowiki>**</nowiki> Only available on consoles as a libretro core (e.g. [[RetroArch]]).<br><nowiki>***<references group=N /nowiki> Only available on mobile as a libretro core (e.g. [[RetroArch]]).
===Comparisons===
*[[Mesen]] is the most compatible accurate NES emulator according to currently established NES test ROM suites.<ref name="mesentest">http://www.mesen.ca/TestResults.php</ref> It should be the emulator of choice for those who desire the utmost accuracy. Mesen is also very user-friendly and supports a lot of features that other emulators are missing such as; [[Texture_Packs|HD packs]], [[netplay]], auto-updating, [[Shaders and Filters|good built-in filters]], both .zip and [[GoodTools|goodmerged]] file loading, etc.
*[[puNES]] is the second most accurate NES/FDS emulator according to a separate test battery run by the TASVideos community.<ref name="nestas">http://tasvideos.org/EmulatorResources/NESAccuracyTests.html</ref> It should be noted that puNES used to have one mapper that Mesen didn't: 116, which allows games like Kart Fighter and Somari to be supported. This has since been added to Mesen.
*[[Nestopia]] also has a high ranking in those same tests.<ref name="nestas"/> Even so, Nestopia has issues with The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles and doesn't display the status bar in 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 in the Undead Edition.
*[[Nintendulator]] and My Nes also have a fairly high ranking in those tests.<ref name="nestas"/>. NintendulatorNRS is a fork of Nintendulator which has support for the Famicom Disk System, rare mappers, and many unlicensed and bootleg carts and systems.
*[[FCEUX]] scores rather low in these tests, despite being a recommended emulator on TAS Videos. The New PPU is more accurate than the Old PPU, thankfully. The emulator is still useful, though, thanks to its robust Lua scripting and incorporating FCEUmm into its feature set.
*[[VirtuaNES]] also scores quite low in the tests, but in turn supports several obscure [[#Peripherals|peripherals]] that are not available on other emulators.

|A Japan-exclusive peripheral using proprietary floppy disks format for implementing extra features that lacked in original Famicom console, such as saving game data (without needing battery-backed ROM), high-fidelity audio and other gameplay enhancements. FDS comes with its own game library, some of these were later ported to the regular NES/Famicom cartridge format with significant downgrades.''See above''

==Hardware Variants==
===VS. System===
An arcade system based on the NES released for the US. It was released in two different cabinet variations: '''Vs. UniSystem''' and '''Vs. DualSystem''', which the later have double chipsets on the PCB and is capable of handling two different programs or simply two separate copies of a single program on one boardsetsimultaneously.
Most emulators support games in Vs. UniSystem cabinet by setting up different DIP switches. But for games in Vs. DualSystem cabinet, [[MAME]] is the only choice.
Since most VS. System games have palettes that differ from the standard RGB NES palette, roms made with VS. System which are accidentally played in the emulator's NES mode (or vice-versa) will cause the colors to be totally garbled. This can occur when there is an issue with the emulator's configuration or the ROM's iNES header.
===Famicom Box===
A pirate NES Famicom clone which was sold in Russia and Eastern Europe, with the blueprint later reused for other Famiclones. Here's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kne6AKyYUuM a link] to a CC-subtitled Kinaman video for more details. It's a very quirky NTSC NES optimized for 50Hz, with many other changes from the official PAL NES as well- through these differences often break the compatibility of Dendy-specific releases on most emulators.
MESS supports this console, and some other emulators (such as Mesen, puNES, and FCEUX) have introduced support for it in r3134, along with the already included as well as support for iNES 2.0 ROM headers (including the option to mark a ROM region as PAL Dendy). The cartridges themselves can still be played as long as the emulator supports broken carts. ===NES Classic Edition==={{main|wikipedia:NES Classic Edition}}The NES Classic Edition is a mini console that emulates the experience of the Nintendo Entertainment System. It includes 30 classic NES games and is compatible with the Wii Classic Controller and NES Classic Edition controller.Nintendo produced and sold about 2.3 million NES Classic Editions from November 2016 through April 2017, with shipments selling out nearly immediately. In April 2017, Nintendo announced they were discontinuing the product, leading to consumer confusion, and incidents of greatly increased pricing among private sellers. Due to the demand of the NES Classic, and the success of the Super NES Classic Edition console, Nintendo re-introduced the NES Classic on June 29, 2018. Production was discontinued again in December 2018.
