• This is a release of Nestopia that includes the xBr filter made by Hyllian. For more information on this filter go here
• This filter works well on SNES and Genesis games. It's not such a big benefit (over HQ4X) on NES games, but you might like the result.

• The difference between 4xBr A-B-C and HQ4X:

A - Don't round corners. (Good for RGP games)
B - Round some corners. (The default setting)
C - Round all corners (On the FF screenshot the windows in the houses are now smaller and the doors are tent openings)
