VirtuaNES is a Japanese Famicom/NES emulator for Win32 Programmed by Norix.
'''VirtuaNES''' is an open-source Japanese [[Nintendo Entertainment System emulators|Famicom (NES) emulator]] developed for Windows by Norix. This emulator is notable for having support for several obscure peripherals that most other emulators cannot emulate. Its speed on low-end hardware led to it being ported to the 3DS, where it can [[VirtuaNES/Compatibility_List|run many games at full speed]].

==Review==
 
VirtuaNES was once an emulator of choice prior to the availability of [[FCEUX|FCE]] and [[Nestopia]]. However, it is old, inaccurate (passes less than 35% of [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1c9IswrneXgFpu49bDyLL79XEdO7UrUZz4x-qEmOo5vI/edit#gid=11 TASVideos' accuracy tests]), and has an awkward user interface. It is thus not recommended except for games that require its support for obscure accessories or for speed on very old hardware.
