In what way are Magic Engine and Ootake more accurate than MESS for PCE and PCE-CD emulation? MESS can run 99% of commercial releases with no per-game hacks, and it has low-level emulation of CD comms. Neither of the PCE emulators you mention are better.

MESS has HLSL filters on Windows and pluggable GLSL filters on SDL. If there is better eye candy in any other emulator, point it out.
> Almost all the emulators I mentioned are better and easier to hack cheat codes
Bullshit. MESS has full MAME debugger, which the vast majority of the emulators you mention have no competition for. This is a far superior system for hacking cheats into gameplay. Name an emulator that does better.
