    Did anyone see this? Wondering if it will make it's way into the install scripts. I'd love to try it out.

      @joemommasfat if it's primary goal is accuracy I wouldn't imagine it will run better than the others on the pi. But who knows.

        Probably more resource hungry than bnes, and i'm not sure bnes is running well on rpi ?

          It does not. I was reading about the introduction of Mesen and the developer himself said he'd be surprised if it ran well on the Pi. On a personal note, I'd love it if at least one of these cores supported Power Pad games, as most of their standalone counter-parts do. However, I suppose all things come with time and I'm very glad that Zapper games are now more widely playable than they have been in the past.

            Any chance Mesen could be added as optional core.
            Since I am using RetroPie on a powerfull x86 PC.
