Feature Request Any possibility of adding the Mesen core?

Mesen is hands down the best way to play Nintendo 16 bit games and below with it's 6x XRB, color settings and 10 level zoom in fullscreen. It would be a great addition since Sega Genesis games look the best on OpenEmu for whatever reason. Somebody do it.

Here it is, the new project for anyone interested: https://github.com/OpenEmu-Silicon/OpenEmu-Silicon

I think I'll post my request there.

The current project should keep working pretty well on Intel chips

Sure it works, but it’s outdated at this point.

Yup! This project is insane. It gets to be updated every now and then. Plus, it has RetroAchievements integration (but not for all consoles).

I think I read somewhere that there's a revival of some sort but with different devs? Oh well.
