		<description><![CDATA[ My guess is their intended audience was owners of the original Famicom, since I hear most people say the original Famicom plays VRC6 best. Me personally, I have no problem with both the Hi-Def NES' emulation of VRC6 on HDTVs and the EverDrive N8's emulation of it coupled with an ENIO board on my Front Loader's EXP. slot when I play it on an old CRT ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p style="margin: 6px 0px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 14px;">So I recently picked up a Sharp Twin Famicom while I was in glorious Nippon as well as a bunch of games, one of which being the J version of Castlevania 3. I&#39;ve been comparing with Nestopia for accuracy to determine the difference (if one exists) between emulation of VRC6 and hardware use of it and have done the following:</p>

<p style="margin: 6px 0px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 14px;">- Tested on the same TV with the same volume&nbsp;<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: inherit;">levels<br />
- Emulation is being done on a PC with HDMI<br />
- Famicom is outputting composite with a legit cart, no flash cart business<br />
- Using the regular version of Nestopia, no Retroarch or whatnot involved</span></p>

<div class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 14px;">
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 6px; font-family: inherit;">Now my findings are as follows:</p>

<p style="margin: 6px 0px; font-family: inherit;">- Nestopia seems to play VRC6 loudly compared to hardware</p>

<p style="margin: 6px 0px; font-family: inherit;">- In Nestopia, the "umph" or more bassy noises seem to be much more subtle to the point that they almost seem missing. It&#39;s like someone turned the dial all the way to treble</p>

<p style="margin: 6px 0px; font-family: inherit;">Now here is the question.. What difference if any does this really make for one? For all intents and purposes, both sound great, but I&#39;m honestly just curious at this point for science, so whatever. The main question is whether or not my testing is truly valid? I do have a CRT and a PC with a video card in which I can do composite and such to replicate the cable if I should do that, but is composite really that bad if that is the source of the difference? At that point it&#39;s almost up to debate what the "intended" experience is regarding the chip. Obviously they expected audiences to have composite at *best* at the time, but perhaps the machines they developed on sounded far better? This is really all up to speculation, just a topic I find interesting.</p>

<p style="margin: 6px 0px; font-family: inherit;">Anyways, if you actually read up to here, cool and thanks.</p>
