  Port of aiju's NES emulator from 9front (Plan 9) to libretro by rz5.
  Minimal emulator supporting mappers 0 (NROM), 1 (MMC1), 2 (UxROM),
  3 (CNROM), 4 (MMC3), 7 (AxROM). Palette hardcoded in ppu.c.
  No BIOS or external files required. NES hardware boots directly
  from cartridge ROM. No FDS support (only .nes extension).
feat: re-profile 22 emulators, refactor validation to common.py batch re-profiled nekop2 through pokemini. mupen64plus renamed to mupen64plus_next. new profiles: nes, mupen64plus_next. validation functions (_build_validation_index, check_file_validation) consolidated in common.py — single source of truth for verify.py and generate_pack.py. pipeline 100% consistent on all 6 platforms. 2026-03-24 22:31:22 +01:00			`emulator: nes`
