I saw this Project on Flathub and tried it. It works well enough and I like that its ready to go out of the box without needing to install cores like Retroarch. The UI is different from Retroarch, but is there any big advantage? Does anybody use it? And why?
From their about page:
The reason for this was to build on the successes of the bsnes revival to create an easy-to-use multi-system emulator, as well as to begin adding more modern systems such as the Nintendo 64 and PlayStation, which simply cannot be emulated using the cycle-accurate model of higan.
Basically, Ares was bsnes > higan > bsnes (v2) > forked to be a multi-emulator again. Super confusing, yes.
Ares has a N64 core that’s mostly homegrown (not based on any existing emulator like Mupen) and has a lot of promise. It’s actually probably already the best N64 emulator, but I don’t think many people know that.
