FCEUX scores rather low in these tests, despite being a recommended emulator on TAS Videos. The New PPU is more accurate than the Old PPU, thankfully.NintendulatorNRS is a fork of Nintendulator that supports the Famicom Disk System, rare mappers, VRT chipsets, and many unlicensed and bootleg carts and systems. Nintendulator and My Nes also have a fairly high ranking in those tests.Even the libretro core for Nestopia is in the Undead Edition. This version is generally recommended over vanilla. Nestopia Undead Edition is a fork of Nestopia meant to keep it alive and fix the aforementioned bugs. 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 also has a high ranking in those same tests.puNES is the second most accurate NES/FDS emulator, according to a separate test battery run by the TASVideos community.

The original developer resumed development in March 2021 with multi-system emulator Mesen2. The standalone emulator ceased development around October 2020 for unknown reasons, but the libretro and NovaSquirrel forks are still active. Mesen is also very user-friendly and supports a lot of features that other emulators are missing, such as HD packs, netplay, auto-updating, good built-in filters, both. It should be the emulator of choice for those who desire the utmost accuracy. Mesen is the most accurate NES emulator according to currently established NES test ROM suites.Its compatibility is inferior to 1.13 beta 2.

The earliest games released on the Famicom suffered from significant hardware constraints due to the way the Famicom was designed: limited memory addressing (which meant games had a small maximum ROM size), how the graphics were loaded onscreen, just the native sound processing was available, no saving. It had a Ricoh 2A03 CPU at 1.79 MHz with 2 KBs of RAM. The console would be redesigned as the NES and released on Octoin North America. The Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) is an 8-bit, third-generation console originally released as the Family Computer or Famicom, in Japan, on July 15, 1983.
