- Qt and SDL ports for a heavy-weight and a light-weight frontend.
- Save type detection, even for flash memory size[2].
- Real-time clock support, even without configuration.
- A built-in BIOS implementation, and ability to load external BIOS files.
- Turbo/fast-forward support by holding Tab.
- Frameskip, configurable up to 9.
- Screenshot support.
- 9 savestate slots. Savestates are also viewable as screenshots.
- Video and GIF recording.
- Remappable controls for both keyboards and gamepads.
- Loading from ZIP files.
- IPS and UPS patch support.
- Game debugging via a command-line interface (not available with Qt port) and GDB remote support.

Cemu is a Nintendo Wii U emulator that runs commercial games. Highly experimental software to emulate Wii U applications on PC.
Cemu v1.11.6b Changelog:
# New in 1.11.6b:
general: Updated MK8 EU game profile (GPU buffer cache accuracy now set to low instead of high)
general: Fixed a bug where changing the 'GPU buffer cache accuracy' UI option would have no effect while a game was running
# New in 1.11.6:
general: Added game list
general: Minor tweaks to UI
general: Updated gameprofiles
general: Added new options to gameprofiles (cpuMode, useRDTSC, loadSharedLibraries)
general: Overhauled logging
input: Input settings window is now resizeable
input: Fixed a crash that could occur in input settings
input: Added home button as an assignable button to wiimote input configuration
padscore: Improved behavior of WPAD/KPadConnectCallback
coreinit: Added API FSGetClientNum
GX2: It is now possible to toggle between conventional shaders (pre Cemu 1.8.0) and separable shaders (default since Cemu 1.8.0)
Both modes are compatibile with existing graphic packs (custom graphic pack shaders might need to be updated if they were used in combination with a geometry shader)
Each mode uses separate shader cache files (conventional shader cache has the suffix _j, e.g. 8d354cea_j.bin)
GX2: Fixed alpha channel for BC5 textures
GX2: Added API GX2GetMainCoreId
GX2: Fixed 1D shadow samplers on AMD
GX2: Adjusted the way attributes are passed from geometry to pixel shader so it works on AMD
Mednafen is a multi-game-system emulator, for various platforms, including emulation of the following systems:Atari Lynx,Famicom,GameBoy (Color),GameBoy Advance,Neo Geo Pocket (Color), NES(both NTSC and PAL),PC Engine/TurboGrafx 16 (CD) and SuperGrafx,PC-FX,WonderSwan (Color).
Mednafen v1.21.2 Changelog:
Updated bundled copy of Tremor to address a security vulnerability.
SS: Improved emulation of SCU DSP DMA to program RAM, per tests on a SS(still nowhere near perfect, the way it's implemented on hardware is kind of horrible, but it should work ok if games use it how it's meant to be used); fixes graphical glitches in "Shining Force III - Scenario 2", and perhaps in the other "Shining Force III" games as well.
SS: Flush the prefetched SCU DSP instruction when PC is set via PPAF, instead of when END/ENDI executes or when execution is forcibly stopped, per tests on a SS.
SS: Disallow SCU DSP LOP from being written in a looped single instruction unless it's the final iteration, per tests on a SS.
SS: Allow SCU DSP LOP to underflow to 0xFFF with LPS and BTM, per tests on a SS.
MAME stands for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator. When used in conjunction with images of the original arcade game's ROM and disk data, MAME attempts to reproduce that game as faithfully as possible on a more modern general-purpose computer. MAME can currently emulate several thousand different classic arcade video games from the late 1970s through the modern era.
