Will try higan I guess. Thanks OP


Reception:

British Internet magazine WebUser recommended bsnes for "some fun old-school gaming" in 2008.[8]

Where does it hurt?
snes9x works fine

zsnes doesn't work well because it turns out windows 8 doesn't hw accelerate dx7 in the way zsnes wants it to.

i hated having to get off zsnes but drat it's been like 10 years since it updated

i like zsnes' gui so much more despite it being a piece of poo poo that nobody likes apparently

i was gonna go through the whole library of snes games on stream at some point using it because it's all nice and self-contained but then it turned out i was way too lazy

bsnes tries to emulate the snes exactly so it runs slower than the others.

Also the creator of bsnes/higan is a weeaboo bum who likes stuff like ".hack but 100x worse anime with incest" and "generic magical girl anime" and "popular dark magical girl anime" and is also a libertarian who calls himself a socialist and is probably gay only because girls stink and don't program. Yeah.

At least he is married.

EDIT: Though with another man, which would be fine except for the aforementioned "eww, women" mentality some of his reddit posts are.

Do they still have a really limited selection or have they been adding lots of games since the wii days?

at what point do people stop buying single mario titles and they are forced to do like a cheap subscription service?

Nope. VC games still come out at only a trickle at a time.

and nintendo is lovely at coding and can't make an emulator for gba that works on the 3ds to release wonderful gba games despite my lovely flash cart being able to do it

I don't think a subscription would work because it's like once every other year I think "Hey I want to play Mario world or dkc2" and I just play it for a weekend and then forget about it for another year or so.

I could just emulate them but I don't have a dedicated PC for my main tv and a few bucks is worth skipping the hassle to play it from my couch. I know this makes me a mega contard but oh well I have a job deal with it.

I used.to like zebra but I think snes9x is more accurate

Some patches only work on one or the other tho. The SMT ones I think only work on 9x
