Bringing back SNES: SNEmulDS v0.2

Still can’t let go of your now considered relics, but precious SNES games collection? Thinking of ways on how you can take them with you? Then you’ve come to the right place. You don’t even have to break a sweat trying to figure out how you can play games like Gradius 3, Super Turrican and Wing Commander again.

Archeide‘s SNES emulator, SNEmulDS’ is the solution you’ve been looking for. All you need is your trusty Nintendo DS and you’re all set. You’d be basking in SNES glory in no time at all. You’re getting all these improvements in v0.2.

Changelog:

• Support for ROMs bigger than 2 Mo (size of ROM is not limited)
• Speed improvement (+30-40%)
• Load / Save states (*). You can save up to 8 states by game. Games are stored in SNEmul file format (SML) in the SNES directory, along with the SNES ROM.
• Fixed most scrolling bugs
• Load / Save SNES SRAM (*). SRAM is read from a “XXXX.SRM” file put in the SNES directory, along with the SNES ROM. SRAM has to be saved manually using the “Save SRAM” option in the main menu.
• New “No Vblank” mode which is by default enabled. This mode allow much faster emulation speed, and can fix some graphical problems, but can also bring other issues.
• Fixed initial crashes due to “strange” file names in SNES directory.
• Fixed many other bugs, improved memory consumption.
• Saving is experimental due to the limitations of the FAT libraries.
• Like the initial release (0.1), ROMs are loaded from the SNES directory in your card
• Sources will be updated soon.

If this is your first time to venture into the 2D wild side, better check out the Read Me first. It contains a brief history of the emulator, installation guidelines and an FAQ.
