# CPCemu vs NES

The clearest difference is review sentiment: CPCemu at 100% against NES's 0%. NES's advantage is rating (4.3 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (19 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

NES holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NES has 19 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of CPCemu's written reviews are positive against 0% of NES's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
