notes: |
  The native core is a C bridge that spawns a Java process running
  freej2me-lr.jar, which handles all J2ME emulation. Communication
  happens over pipes (Linux) or named pipes (Windows). A Java runtime
  (JRE/JDK 8+) must be installed on the host. The jar is built from
  source via Apache Ant (build.xml). Same repo hosts standalone AWT
  and SDL2 frontends alongside the libretro frontend.

feat: update 47 emulator profiles with core_classification and fixes add core_classification, cores, upstream fields. fix false aliases (fixnes, fsuae, gearboy, higan_sfc, higan_sfc_balanced, potator, quicknes). add new profiles (fbneo_neogeo, flycast_gles2, genesis_plus_gx_wide). remove verbose notes and disclaimers. 2026-03-22 14:01:38 +01:00			`core_classification: official_port`

docs: add core_version, display_name to all 260 emulator profiles Every profile now has: - profiled_date: date of source code analysis - core_version: version from libretro-core-info .info files - display_name: human-readable name from .info files 260/260 profiles complete. 294/294 libretro cores covered.

chore: standardize notes: to note: in file entries 240 file-level entries used notes: instead of the canonical note: field. verify.py and cross_reference.py only read note:, so these were silently ignored. 2026-03-29 10:02:20 +02:00			`note: "Not a BIOS dump.
