Debut of a new Super Nintendo emulator called Zsnes, it is a very interesting emulator, as it comes with the following features:
- Full 65816 instruction set
- SRAM support
- LoROM and HiROM support
- SlowROM and FastROM support
- Line to Line graphics engine
- Graphics modes 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7
- Mosaic effect
- Support for 8×8, 16×16, 32×32 and 64×64 sprites
- Full DMA support
- Rotation and scaling effects using Mode 7
- Individual Windowing routines
- Background area addition
- HIRQ/VIRQ/NMI Interrupts
- Support for many Super Nintendo ROM formats
- Multiple file support (.1,.2,.3,A.,B.,C.)
- 16 Bit Graphics Support

The emulator is fantastic, even if it is not yet at the level of Snes9x, but it is not lacking much, considering that it is the first beta version of the emulator.
