Test ACCURATE emulation in Bartop

The world of emulation seems easy, but if we want to emulate it accurately I assure you that emulation becomes an academic theme.

I did many experiments on NES mini, which did not EMULA accurately, and I tell you that even many titles can not run on NES mini (especially some Japanese)

At this point I thought of an ideal hardware based on Windows PC .
Intel released this year the Apollo Lake CPU that is amazing for this kind of EXPERIMENTS .
Unfortunately, the choice of Mini PC is still not wide, but some Chinese builders such as Beelink have done a great job on PCs such as the BEELINK with 4GB of RAM, 64GB of disk (very fast unlike other mini PCs), and Cpu Apollo Lake

I decided to leave the mini PC outside the cabinet because this way, I can do some maintenance to add, remove, update etc

The configuration of MAME works always with any type of encoder

but this encoder and retroarch



You need to know backward well to configure joysticks and buttons, there are various solutions to get you to an optimal config
