*[[PuNES]] is the second most accurate NES emulator according to these tests.<ref name="nestas">http://tasvideos.org/EmulatorResources/NESAccuracyTests.html</ref> That's not to say that it will generate an absolutely perfect experience compared to actual hardware. PuNES also supports rewinding in games. PuNES has some mappers that Mesen doesn't support yet. Mesen has quite a few mappers that PuNES doesn't support yet.
*[[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 (Nestopia UE) is a fork of Nestopia meant to keep it alive and fix the aforementioned bugs. This version is generally recommended over vanilla. The libretro core for Nestopia is Undead Edition in libretro form.
* [[Nintendulator]] and MyNes also have a fairly high ranking in the tests.<ref name="nestas"/>
*[[FCEUX]] scores rather low in the 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]] scores quite low in the tests, but it also supports several obscure [[#Peripherals|peripherals]] that are not supported on other emulators.
