There are a huge amount of columns in it, and I think it's getting harder to read and process everything. Compiling every single feature in a single place may not be the best idea, especially if we're talking about features only a few emulators support or even plan on supporting. This also applies to other pages but this one illustrates this problem the most, for me. I think we should bring back separate tables in dedicated sections, and keep general features in the main table.

I respectfully disagree with you about that. Actually I think separating tables/divs in dedicated sections = "it's getting harder to read and process everything." [[User:Ahayri|Ahayri]] ([[User talk:Ahayri|talk]])
 
 
Well, while we're on the subject, I think it makes sense to remove the "libretro" column - it only applies to ParaLLEl-N64 and Mupen64Plus-Next, for which it's already pointed out they're libretro cores, and technically MAME, which nobody in their right mind uses for N64, let alone on the libretro core. [[User:GPDP1|GPDP1]] ([[User:GPDP1|talk]])
 
 
If we're removing the libretro column for this article, we might as well remove the column for all articles. I think the libretro column should stay. [[User:Jadasse|Jadasse]] ([[User:Jadasse|talk]])

I think it would be an excellent idea, since it would provide a good overview on how precise the non-plugins emulators are, especially on console and mobile, and we would get rid of those question marks [[User:FulguroBoy|FulguroBoy]] ([[User talk:FulguroBoy|talk]]) 14:22, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
 
 
Done. [[User:Ahayri|Ahayri]] ([[User talk:Ahayri|talk]]) 22:33, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
 
 
== Bringing back RetroAchievements column? ==
 
Should we wait for another emulator to support "RetroAchievements" because at the moment, only two libretro core (Mupen64Plus-Next and ParaLLEl-N64) supports this feature.

RA support added to [https://github.com/TASEmulators/BizHawk/pull/3407 BizHawk with 2.9 version]. (RA supported emulators atm: Mupen64Plus-Next, ParaLLEl-N64 and BizHawk)

== Parallel Launcher ==
 
 
Why isn't [https://parallel-launcher.ca/ Parallel Launcher] recommended? It combines the accuracy of ParaLLEl-N64 to an interface that doesn't make you scream in frustration! -[[Special:Contributions/172.69.3.147|172.69.3.147]] 03:21, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
 
 
You could add that to the comparison paragraph.
