📜️ "A multi-system emulator (APPLE, ATARI, BANDAI, NEC, NINTENDO, SEGA, SONY and SNK)" 📜️
Mednafen is a portable, utilizing OpenGL and SDL, argument(command-line)-driven multi-system emulator.
Mednafen has the ability to remap hotkey functions and virtual system inputs to a keyboard, a joystick, or both simultaneously.
Save states are supported, as is real-time game rewinding.
Screen snapshots may be taken, in the PNG file format, at the press of a button.
Mednafen can record audiovisual movies in the QuickTime file format, with several different lossless codecs supported.
The following systems are supported(refer to the emulation module documentation for more details):
• Apple II/II+
• Atari Lynx
• Neo Geo Pocket (Color)
• WonderSwan
• GameBoy (Color)
• GameBoy Advance
• Nintendo Entertainment System
• Super Nintendo Entertainment System/Super Famicom

Mednafen is distributed under the terms of the GNU GPLv2.
Due to the threaded model of emulation used in Mednafen, and limitations of SDL, a joystick is preferred over a keyboard to play games, as the joystick will have slightly less latency, although the latency differences may not be perceptible to most people.

Un émulateur multi-systèmes (APPLE, ATARI, BANDAI, NEC, NINTENDO, SEGA, SONY et SNK), par la Mednafen Team.
Mednafen ("My Emulator Doesn't Need A Fucking Excellent Name") est un émulateur libre et multi-plateforme, en ligne de commande, solo/multi (hotseat / en serveur), des systèmes Apple II/II+, ATARI (Lynx), BANDAI (WonderSwan Color), Nintendo (NES aka Famicom, SNES aka Super Famicom, Game Boy, Game Boy color, Game Boy Advance aka GBA, Virtual Boy), SEGA (Mega Drive aka Genesis, Saturn, Game Gear, Master System), SONY (PlayStation), NEC (PC-FX, PC Engine aka PCE Fast aka TurboGrafx 16, PC Engine SuperGrafx aka PCE SG), SNK (Neo Geo Pocket color). Il supporte notamment OpenGL, SDL, le jeu en serveur, le remapping des joysticks et claviers, la sauvegarde d'état, le retour en arrière du jeu.
• Un fork du source (voir la section "Resources" ci-dessus) rend compatible avec libretro (pour plus de précision concernant l'application libreto, voir la fiche "Libretro (& RetroArch)" une partie de ses composants.
• Cet émulateur vous permet de jouer sous Linux avec des ROMS téléchargées sur internet.
• Attention : le téléchargement de ROMS commerciales est illégal à moins de les avoir acquises financièrement.
• Différentes interfaces externes permettent de faciliter son paramétrage, voir ci-après.

Mednafen est un émulateur multi-système portable, en ligne de commande, utilisant OpenGL et SDL.
Mednafen a la possibilité de remapper les fonctions de raccourcis clavier et les entrées du système virtuel sur un clavier, un joystick ou les deux simultanément.
La sauvegarde d'état est prise en charge, tout comme le retour en arrière en temps réel du jeu.
Des copies d'écran peuvent être prises, dans le format de fichier PNG, par simple appui de bouton.
Mednafen peut enregistrer des films audiovisuels au format de fichier QuickTime, avec différents codecs sans perte.
Les systèmes suivants sont pris en charge (reportez-vous à la documentation du module d'émulation pour plus de détails) :
• Apple II/II+
• Atari Lynx
• Neo Geo Pocket (Couleur)
• WonderSwan
• GameBoy (Couleur)
• GameBoy Advance
• Nintendo Entertainment System
• Super Nintendo Entertainment System / Super Famicom
• Virtual Boy

• PC-FX
• Sega Game Gear
• Sega Genesis / Megadrive
• Sega Master System
• Sega Saturn (uniquement 64-bits)

Mednafen est distribué selon les termes de la GNU GPLv2.
En raison du modèle d'émulation threadé (NdT : par coeur de processeur) utilisé dans Mednafen, et des limitations de SDL, un joystick est préférable à un clavier pour jouer à des jeux, car le joystick aura légèrement moins de latence, bien que les différences de latence puissent ne pas être perceptibles.

Architecture par processus légers
Mednafen utilise des processus légers de manière simple, mis à part ceux créés par la SDL pour les chronomètres et le son. Il gère le redimensionnement vidéo et l'affichage de sprites sur le périphérique vidéo dans un processus léger, et la véritable émulation du système et la sortie du son dans un autre. Cette configuration est légèrement avantageuse, selon les réglages de l'utilisateur, en utilisant des systèmes SMP. Elle simplifie également l'architecture du programme dans le sens où l'émulation et la sortie du son peuvent facilement continuer de manière ininterrompue même si une opération d'affichage prend un temps trop long, comme c'est le cas quand l'affichage est synchronisé avec le vertical blank.
