Description-en: Libretro wrapper for bsnes-mercury performance core
This wrapper makes bsnes-mercury performance core API compatible with libretro,
thus allowing its use with libretro frontends, such as RetroArch.
.
This core is enabled to emulate only SNES hardware and its subsystems (from
the command line only), like Super Game Boy, Satellaview and Sufami Turbo.
.
bsnes-mercury is a fork of higan, aiming to restore some useful features that
have been removed, as well as improving performance a bit. Maximum accuracy is
still uncompromisable; anything that affects accuracy is optional and off by
default. The name is because metals are shiny, like the accuracy promises of
bsnes, and mercury is the fastest metal.
.
This package comes with the bsnes-mercury performance core, which provides
faster emulation at the cost of reduced accuracy, including problems with some
games.
