→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'''. The latter has double chipsets on the PCB and is capable of handling two different programs or simply two separate copies of a single program simultaneously.
Most emulators support games in Vs. UniSystem cabinet by setting up different DIP switches. But for games in Vs. DualSystem cabinet; [[MAME]], [[Mesen]], NintendulatorNRS and [https://nintaco.com/faq.html#VsDualSystem nintaco] are the only choicesuitable for games in Vs. DualSystem cabinet. For commercial emulation, Hamster re-released several VS. System games from Nintendo and Konami as part of their ''Arcade Archives'' series (the former being exclusive to Nintendo Switch, the latter being also on PS4).
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.
