Well, pretty much ANY emulator will work through Mala as long as it has a command line interface available.

I use Snes9x for SNES and FCEUX for NES.

  Ok i downloaded fceux and have it extracted and running. I mappped the buttons told it the path to the roms and to the snaps.

   ok so how do make the FCEUX emulator rotate the picture for coctail mode?

   And how can i give the emulator a hot button to quit the game or the emulator and go back to mala with out the keyboard or mouse?

Use Closemul. It can map any key including joystick for quit. Or use F.E.E.L. frontend - this functionality is built in.

I use Nestopia Undead for NES.

   Took me a minute but i figured it out. Im using an ATI radeon 3450 graphics card and i used the catalyst program to rotate the screen then go back into mame and mala to reset the orientation there. Now i can play both my mame and my Nes emu on cocktail mode.

I use Nestopia undead for the NES, although I'm looking at PUnes now as it's supposed to be the most accurate. 

For SNES, it's Higan at the top, and then everything else.

I use Nestopia for NES, and ZSNES for SNES.

They both run in Hyperspin just fine. Never tried Mala.
