Description

BizHawk 2.6.2 includes a fourth option for SNES core, namely BSNESv115+. Its purpose is to bring EmuHawk in line with standalone BSNES/lsnes in terms of console-accuracy. Once it's proven itself it can replace the existing core, but that means it needs field-testing, which is where YOU come in!

Give an unverifiable run a new life by resyncing it with this new core, and post your triumphs and failures below.

And thanks again to @Morilli for swooping in and contributing a whole core!
