Nintendulator is way ahead of Nestopia at this point but Nestopia is still user friendly at least

Isn't Nintendulator at least partially closed source, thus rendering it useless as a reference for preservation?

You got me there but Nintendulator and Nestopia where the big thing back then so I assumed that if Marty is not longer working on it then Nintendulator would take the lead since their logs are that active. I don't know how those accuracy test ROMs are either. I just found this page http://tasvideos.org/EmulatorResources/ ... Tests.html (I suddenly got curious about PuNES)

I didn't knew that Nintendulator was partially close source but on their page they claim to be open source http://www.qmtpro.com/~nes/nintendulator/#downloads

The mapper plugins are closed source, which includes the sound capability of the VRC6, VRC7, MMC5, and FME-7 mappers.

This is bad... I wonder why they made those closed source. The only explanation is that they don't want badly coded plugins floating around but still...

I don't think they made them, I think they lifted them from another emulator. They didn't even design the mapper API that they use.

E: My bad, I think the mappers are sourced somewhere. Still, kind of silly that they're implemented in an external plug-in system.
