Favorite NES emulator to use with Mamewah

Yeah, MESS is overly complicated for what you said you were looking for in your post.

FCE Ultra (modded) will do a great job of providing solid NES emulation in your cab.  I have it running 1796 roms on mine and its never missed a beat.

Well if it looked like Mame32 then it was not MESS, maybe MessGUI (messgui.exe). They are distributed together. MESS (mess.exe) is strictly commandline and VERY similar to Mame functionality.

VirtuaNES was a bit better than FCE Ultra. It looks like FCE Ultra has new active developers so they might surpass VirtuaNES - if they haven't already.

another vote for virtuaNES, although I'm sure NES emu development has pretty much peaked on several of the popular emus, such as FCE Ultra, but VirtuaNES works great for me anyway.

I've tried all three, and still can't get one to work exactly correctly.

Virtuanes - gives me a black screen when I try to launch a game from inside of Mamewah.
I have to use the task manager to end the task, then I can see the game for a split second before it exits.
I don't hear any sound, so not sure if it is popping up under Mamewah or not.

MESS - when I run a game from Mamewah, I have to hit a button for it to continue into the game.
When I get to the game, the emulator runs too fast, and the menu bar is at the top of the screen.
ESC won't exit the game.

FCEU modded to exit with ESC - Won't go full screen.
I go to the menu bar configuration and go to Video and click the Full screen.
When I click OK, I get an error saying: DirectDraw:Error setting display mode.
