With the User Interface nearly complete, I think this is the first non-developer only release. So please test if you're interested in SNES emulation!
Known problems:
- ROM compatibility may be bad (improved in 0.9.5)
- Deleting the current ROM causes the GUI not to start (fixed in 0.9.5, thanks qwerty for reporting).
- Cannot start the emulator with any unmapped SNES buttons (fixed in 0.9.5).
- I have a bug report of the emulator leaving the screen in a garbled state after quitting. I couldn't reproduce it. If that happens to you, the easiest way to fix the screen is to reboot. Then please post here .
Remember that buttons can be remapped! Open the menu and select Settings -> Controls to do it.
Changelog from previous build posted here:
- Emulator should be a bit faster. Mode7 games specially.
- GUI is now more complete, and supports state saving/resuming.
- Config file is no longer required, but can still be used (if launched from GUI, GUI settings override config file settings).
- Sound quality has improved a bit (even in esd backend).
- The command line version is still installed to /usr/bin/drnoksnes .
Changelog from 0.9.4:
- Touchscreen controls
- Some of the above bugs fixed.
- SNES mouse (think Mario Paint, but it does not work very well).
After reading this thread, the emulator sounds awesome!
I haven't had a chance to try it out yet, but one feature I've wished other emulators for the NIT had is built-in support for pairing with a wii remote, and preconfigured bindings for it.

I just tried wiicontrol, and works pretty well. Except for two things:
- The Wiimote B button seems not to produce any keypress.
- Being python (or maybe caused by the bluetooth adapter), the framerate is lowered.
I don't really see why I should duplicate this functionality...
I want to congratulate to this snes emu! but, What if I have an n800??
how can i remap controls?
Open the menu in the launcher, then selection Options -> Controls.
Double tap into the key name to change.
All of the N800 keys should be mappable, so you should be able to enjoy some games even without touchscreen input (which I'm trying to implement right now).
(If you don't map the Quit action to anything, it will overwrite your fullscreen key mapping to Quit, so you can quit the emulator).
