It's just fundamentally broken in the most amazing ways. One part is the biggest piece of shit software I've ever used, the other part is one of the most amazing pieces of software I've ever used. Ultimately you'll want to play around with it and see if it's worth switching over to for you. Input lag was reduced one frame, so it's on par with Nestopia there. The bugs I mentioned are already fixed, achievements were hooked up and there was a commit for savestates that was supposed to make netplay work better. Mesen is in much more active development Nestopia is in maintenance mode at this point (hence the Undead moniker). I think it's overclocking option might be more compatible than Nestopia, but I'm not sure. It has a few more core options than Nestopia, like Fake Stereo. Mesen probably runs some obscure bootlegs that Nestopia doesn't. I think that makes it more worthwhile to switch to. If you are running it on a PC, there isn't quite as huge a performance difference compared to SNES9x and Higan though. Both run popular games about the same, but there might be subtle things like timing differences that the more accurate one gets right. It's kind of like the difference between SNES9x and Higan/BSNES. You can find all of this info by googling a bit, but man I had no idea about any of this, so it's definitely not the most user friendly way to handle these options. Pressing Start on a hotkey with a set controller button will clear it (for example, if you set the wrong button for Enable Hotkeys, press Start on it while in the menu to clear.Pressing Select in a menu actually shows a description of that option (in this case, it explains what the Enable Hotkeys option does). But holding the Select button (if you set it as Enable Hotkeys) + any other hotkey button will activate that hotkey's action, so if you press Select + R, you'll rewind, but just pressing R won't rewind. So if you set the Select button on your controller, you can no longer use it as a normal Select button. In turn, the key/button you set for Enable Hotkeys is now "sacrificed" or unusable as a proper key/button, only as a hotkey modifier. If set, this key/button will override all other hotkeys within this menu, so you'll need to hold this key/button + the already set hotkey to activate that action.
