SNES9X – Super Nintendo Emulator – Ported to the PS3

Developer eiz has ported SNES9X — a Super Nintendo Emulator — to the PS3. It’s a very early port so don’t expect too much. For example (from the README):

• Lots of snes9x features are not supported yet. No save states, for example. Most of these are really simple to implement.
• Sound code is rubbish. It more or less works, but you’ll probably hear the occasional skip.
• Performance isn’t great.
• UI. Or rather, there isn’t one.

Copy your SNES ROMS to the root directory of your USB device, and then start Snes9x with the device attached to your PS3. Note: you’ll need to plug the device into the USB port nearest the eject & power button, the 1st port from the right, otherwise Snes9x will not find any roms. That’ll probably change in future versions.
After playing a few roms I gotta say, performance is pretty damn good. Props, eiz. Nice work.
Update: The download has been updated with a newly compiled version fresh from eiz’s github repository. This version allows you to select a rom directory, instead of defaulting to dev_usb000.
