What is Emulator?

Snes9x is a portable, freeware Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) emulator. It basically allows you to play most games designed for the SNES and Super Famicom Nintendo game systems on your PC or Workstation; which includes some real gems that were only ever released in Japan.

How do I set it up?

This is a standalone emulator with a GUI just download and execute. The key to screen rotation is matching display resolution with the output of the emulator. The default for this emulator a menu is visible at startup. In a normal situation the escape key would hide this menu but most Mame™ machines employ the escape key to end the current emulation. This can be overcome with the use of a wrapper. With the use of a Wrapper Snes9x is a very stable seamless emulator for arcade machines.
