SNEmulDS v0.1 Alpha

We got a new homebrewer on the block: archeide. He’s calling out for help on his SNES emulator project. He had worked on the previous SNEmul for DOS and Linux almost ten years ago, and now, he’s trying to port it to the DS. And he has succeeded, technically, but it’s still an Alpha version! He’s programmed this on C, and since it’s still running on Alpha, there are bugs that have to be addressed. One major thing that needs fixing is the speed, but at least he has started this project.

Here’s how to install it:

• An SNES directory must be created in the root directory of the flash card.
• All SNES ROMs have to be put in this directory.
• Launch the SNEmulDS.ds in your ROM launcher.
• A file list should then appear, displaying all those SNES ROMs.
• Tap on the desired game and press START to launch the game.

A lot more info is found in the readme file, so we suggest you guys look at that, too. There’s a very useful FAQ section in the file as well – something that other homebrew readmes sadly lack.

While there are other SNES emus out there for the DS, we’re glad that some people are still getting into the bandwagon of homebrew emulation. In the future, maybe all the homebrew giants of the emulator world could get together and help each other out!
