New Mesen Core for RetroArch

[SupraKarma]

RetroArch has a new NES core with very high compatibility (better than NEStopia), it's probably going to be the best once they work out a few issues.

One feature that I found particularly interesting was support for HD packs. Another emulator called HDNes from a few years back allows the user to edit and replace graphics/sprites, and you can do all of that in the standalone version of Mesen, apparently.

Now I know some snobby purists are probably disgusted by this. If you're one of them, this feature is *not* for you.

Anyways,  here's a screenshot of Super Mario Bros.

 

 

 

You can download the pack here: https://github.com/lyonhrt/hdnes-projects

Put the files in Retroarch\System\HdPacks\GameName

Are there any more HD packs floating out there,I haven't been able to track any others down.

There might be... I didn't try that hard, to be honest.

Honestly, I'm surprised it's not more of a thing. SNES msu-1 support really took off, you'd think this would, too.
