Not sure what kind of TV your using, most of the emulators out now have very good video.

I actually prefer the blurred image (hardware stretch), then using the original pixelated look.

I agree that it would be more realistic to have 304x224 resolution (after all I own an arcade cabinet).
But I don't know if its possible to have this full screen on a tv resolution.
Plus they could add the blue haze to the screen like in old arcades.

I have the same complaint.

But what I found in SNES9x is to use point filtering in the rendering options and it outputs a clean image.

I've played MAME, DGen, and Final Burn and all of those do the blurring. I hate it. If I wanted to see that crap I wouldn't have bought a good TV or the S-Video adapter for my xbox.

I was actually very impressed with the stretching though. When I played CPS2 and NEOGEO games they actually didn't come out distorted when made to fit my screen, it was just the filtering/blurring that ruined it all.

Hopefully the authors of this software will do what the SNES9x guys did and have a point filtering option or just have no filtering but I dunno if that's possible.

Its quite difficult to output full screen image resolution 320x224 (or whatever it is) on a tv screen.
In Mamex you can have perfect pixel resolution (turn off hwstretch) but it will occupy half the screen.
