Maybe one to many questions in there. There are load of differences between the firmwares, the latest changes are shown here:

Im usin 1.4 official firmware and it seems to work fine with most programs I have tried (though the overclocking utility no longer works properly).

Most emus run great at 200, exceptions may be GNGeo, SquidgeSnes, a few games in Mame2X and of course at the moment Gp2psx.

I dont think there is a really decent NES emu yet (correct me if im wrong).


Anyway alot more information can be found by looking around these boards and reading the "pinned" topics.

You should go for the unofficial firmware - and at least get v1.4.

Do You Have To Start Every Word With A Capital Letter?

Whether you upgrade depends on personal preference. The 1.4 firmware won't break any current functionality, as far as I know. The battery light is supposed to work with the new firmware, plus there's meant to be an improved Ebook Viewer.

GB/GBC emu is perfect. Genesis emu is perfect (or near enough). NES is struggling at the moment due to lack of developer interest, although I think someone finished a very good alpha recently.
