re: zombie61541314351's emulator comments, you can get zsnes and i think ePSXe for linux too, there are definitely a lot of linux emulators for a lot of nintendo consoles, can't be arsed remembering them all right now.
Anyway, he is wrong again about zsnes vs snes9x. snes9x is better, the end.
Maybe for someone who doesn't care to learn how to USE a program, zsnes is the better choice.

It's amazing how zombie351351431451 can be so consistently wrong! it's a real achievement!

No seriously. Snes9x for Windows has worse sound support than ZSnes. This can be proven by playing the MegaMan X series. When you shoot the charged X-Buster it should make a lighting like crashing sound(the same applies for those one big robots that shoot shock balls across the floor) but in snes9x the lightning like sound is a boing noise(sounds like a damn pinball machine). Another example of the messed up sound in Snes9x...In The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past...when the soldiers in the light world spot you and make that noise they make it doesn't sound right in SNES9x(because of the same sound problem). The reason it does this is because Snes9x doesn't properly emulate the sound spline interlopetion. It is not noticable in alot of games..but in games that make alot of use of the interloption you can tell a major difference in the SFX.
     
BTW, the graphics look better in ZSNES anyways(unless of course you are using the OpenGL rendering in SNES9x..but the games just don't look like they did on the original console in OpenGL.


Another example of SNES9x's flawed sound...in Zelda...again.

Whenever you first start the game and the sword comes down on the Z in the word Zelda it doesn't sound right and any part of the game that uses that exact same sound doesn't sound right either. Also, whenever you charge up your sword and tap walls with the sword it doesn't sound right. Instead of going tink, tink tink it sounds like he is tapping on a piece of fiberglass(it goes twank twank twank). In ZSNES every sound for every game is the way it should be(like the actual games on the actual SNES).

Face it, SNES9x needs work. The only reason I could think of that you would think SNES9x is better is because it runs better on lower end systems(like pre Pentium 233MMX systems). ZSNES has no speed issues at all on systems that are above 400mhz.

What the hell are you talking about ZSNES is for people who don't care to learn how to use a program? SNES9x is easier to use than ZSNES so I think that that comment should be switched over to SNES9x instead of ZSNES.


ZSNES emulates all of the sound and graphics stuff perfectly. It is so amazing to see a person who is wrong claim someone else is wrong. LmFaO.

BTW, I said that ZSNES, SNES9x and ePSXE are ported to Linux you dolt.         :rolleyes:  

Now tell me how SNES9x is superior to ZSNES. Instead of saying your opinion just tell me some facts(like ZSNES bugs) that make SNES9x better.

psyjax:
The Mac Port of SNES9X, is pretty rock solid. It supports nearly every nintendo game (the latest release seems to have broken StarFox tho!).

Whenever I am using a PC I opt for ZSNES, because I have to side with Zombie78764545648 on this one, it's a better emulator overal. Kinda like NESticle vs. some of the other ones out there. Tho again, iNes and RockNes for the Mac are far supperior to their counterparts on other platforms.

I think we owe most of that to Jhon Stilles who runs www.emulation.net and Richard Banistar, two of the bigest names in the Mac emulation community. They have done alot to make emulation on the Mac some of the best around. No good N64 emulator yet tho, I don't really care, I have the origional consol with a bunch of the games I like for it anyway.
