I really dont know, what you are talking about. Do you really mean that SNES emulation is better on MESS then on BSNES? Can you name a better emulator for SNES?
Beside all of this, I never had your problems you are talking about with BSNES. BSNES is awesome, regarding emulation. emulation will never reach the real thing. If you think you see micro-stutter in BSNES, buy the real thing. I dont have your problems, it works very well for me.
MAME (if continued project) will shine in the future. with its aim to produce accurate emulation, it can happen that it will become a better choice, but for the moment, there are a lot of games, done better in emulators that are NOT MAME. So I really dont know, how you come to the conclusion that MAME plays that games better or are playable at least. Model2, Supermodel and Demul are the best examples, why you are wrong with your statement.
cheers, u-man
