I recently switched from high-end Atari emulators to real hardware, and there's no comparison. Even the best emulators have latency issues, and compatibility issues.
When I switched from emulators to actual hardware, suddenly my paddles work perfectly, and the screen artifacts that appear in some games disappeared! I guess emulators just can't handle the A/D conversion well.
