After being in the planning stages for many years, Nintendo finally released the Super Nintendo (SNES) in 1991 to much fanfare. Unfortunately, their initial timing in the US was bad. The Sega Genesis had existed for two years and had over a hundred games, including the best selling game of 1991, Sonic the Hedgehog. Though not as fast as the Genesis, the SNES had the ability to show more colors and, in some cases, better graphics. Clawing its way up from the bottom, the SNES ousted the Turbo Grafx-16 and, although it never outsold the Genesis, it built a huge library of games and a huge fan base.
SNES emulators are some of the most plentiful on the web. Most have excellent compatibility and play a whole host of games. Have fun!
Snes9X is one of the best know SNES emulators. Definitely the most compatible of the emulators, Snes9X also has full sound support and Netplay! The Mac version requires the Appearance Manager to run in System 7, and the NetSprocket to use Netplay. Try this out, you're sure to love it. As always, you have to download ROMs of your favorite games in order to play (see below). Have fun!
Note: Due to copyright laws, it is illegal to download a ROM of any game that
you do not own, unless you delete it within 24 hours. These laws also make it
difficult to keep up with functioning ROM sites and often these sites are not
available. Game Revolution does not host any ROM images on our site, nor does
Game Revolution endorse piracy.
