For everyday use IMO Mamewah is still the way to go. With the right skins, music and preview vids it still looks great and its ideal for quick browsing of gamelists and the quick and easy filter options make it cake to produce filtered lists and switch between emulators.
Hyperspin is absolutely fantastic as a showcase FE, but when its just you and the machine and you just fancy a game, you do start to wonder if its worth all the setting up involved, and that's if you're running it on a PC that will handle it in the first place. Great for about 10 minutes of Wow!, then you start getting a bit fed up with it.
