:Is heavily focused on [[Emulation accuracy|accuracy]], and just like DuckStation, also it has very good compatibility. It's even been known to outperform Sony's official PlayStation emulator in some of the accuracy tests.<!-- Do note if you find an exception, though. --> However, there are a few hurdles to using it; it requires a specific BIOS for each region, and the program interfaces from a shell only; it has no GUI. You can still drag-and-drop CUE files into the executable to load games, and the program will log errors to a text file called <code>stdout</code> whenever a crash happens. External GUI launchers are available.

::This fork by the RetroArch developers has several experimental modifications and [[#Enhancements|enhancements]] that aren't present in the standalone version, including a widescreen hack, CPU overclocking for smoother framerates, and increasing the internal resolution up to 8x. Increasing the resolution carries a ''heavy'' performance cost, however, since graphics are rendered in-software, an alternative core exists for hardware rendering. See [https://www.maketecheasier.com/retroarch-ps1-emulation/ this 2018 guide] for setting up Beetle HW in RetroArch. Needs high-end specifications to run at full speed for Android and iOS devices.
