Flycast easily wins this. The GUI, features and compatibility makes this a clear winner.

ReDream is a joke for locking features behind a paywall when other emulators do it for free.

Would be cool to see some list of emuls that support Retroachievements. For many its not interesting but discussable theme, i think.
Also, i think its good to chose voice above subtitles, cuz of voice can be uset to make automatic subtitles for many other languages.
P.S. Thanks for the work.

Great video, I am really enjoying these emulator comparison videos. I might be the only one, but I would appreciate a mention for how the Retroarch cores compare. I generally prefer Retroarch for the additional features, specifically Rewind and Fast Forward.

Redream at the moment is horrible with AMD GPU’s and AMD apu. Due to a driver issue and it hasn’t been fixed in like 4 months 😢

Dreamcast is a very difficult console to emulate correctly in regards to Graphics: the "NEC PowerVR2" GPU supports OIT by HW (no PC video card supports OIT)
This handles the transparencies and/or shadows. With any emulator - even with 64 layers of transparency - there are games like San Francisco RUSH that present serious visual glitches when there are smoke effects or transparency. Flycast and Demul allow you to configure up to 128 layers that solve this problem, but a GTX1070 is not capable of maintaining full speed at native resolution... On the other hand, the sound and WinCE emulation is still not working well. Btw,
to get the best image quality the emulator should be set to VGA (480p) saludos!

It's "CHD" not "CDH" ;) And DEMUL is also compatible with Naomi games. It can even do the Hikaru board (with some limitations).

I'm using Redream on Android and I'm very happy with it. Also I prefer an Xbox Controller over the Dreamcast controller, and I'm someone who loved his Dreamcast controller back than.

Don't like the weird AI voiceover.

I've been really enjoying redream on my phone. I don't have a good phone, by any means; Samsung A32. But I've had very little issues.

I've noticed some minor graphical issues, but I mean minor. Some weird shadows every now and again. It runs smoother than DeMul and NullDC used to on my £700 gaming laptop 4 years ago.

Would someone please do a list of games that play best with each emulator? I would def set up three different emulators to play the most stable version of the games.

[wondersworld]

Well i would say the console is popular but it struggle in the console war due to hardware

[daisukegori]

What do you recommend for running Planet Harriers on Steam Deck.

[SR_Croft]

Assim, eu gosto do Redream, mas não vejo um update desde 2021
Além de ter muitos problemas gráficos com objetos transparentes, texturas estranhas e também fechar o emulador por ficar recarregando o save state (Além do controle touch dar umas bugadas caso fique clicando 2 ou mais botões ao mesmo tempo)

[ИмяФамилия-дкн]

А можно редрим где-нибудь скачать бесплатно фулл на Андроид, а то там только 1 слот сохранения)

[Tarek_Issa]

When I use filter upscale x2 the flycast Android emulator keep get sounds stuttering and my battery draining quickly! can you tell how to fix this issue?

[AndreaSanchez-cwgf]

For some reason it won't let
Me download redream because it says it's for an older version of android

[Abel-Alvarez]

Quick question, would Demul run on windows 11?

[Fistoffist]

Red dream has viruses I remember it was 5
