Nestopia is an open source GPL Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) emulator for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. Nestopia, like other video game emulators, can run game files called ROMs for the NES. According to its documentation, Nestopia is "designed to be as accurate as possible", though it also has many additional features that are found in other NES emulators. Nestopia features cycle-exact CPU emulation, wave-accurate video emulation, and supports over 180 memory mappers.

[edit] Development history

Nestopia is currently housed on SourceForge with many other open source projects. The main developer is mcfly80. The Mac OS X version is maintained by Richard Bannister. A preliminary Linux port is currently being developed by MAME developer Arbee.
