I have replaced basically ALL of my 2D console emulators with MESS. Reason being is, it is wonderfully integrated into MAMEHub and my friend and I are always using it to play games online. Having MAME Hub, where it combines both MESS and MAME into one program for online play and giving you the ability to select games from both emulators by simply typing the name is nothing short of fantastic!
MESS plays all the snes, genesis, sms, nes, and gba games I throw at it, except for Yoshi's Island, Super Punch Out and a couple others. It's such an amazing emu, and is quickly becoming THE go to emu for 2D console games, while the others(ZSNES, Snes9x, Gens, FCE Ultra, VBA, No$Gba, DEGA, etc...) are being phased out with little to no supports or development progress these days.
