bsnes
bsnes is a multi-platform Super Nintendo (Super Famicom) emulator from byuu that focuses on performance, features, and ease of use.
Development
Git is used for the development of new releases, and represents a staging environment. As bsnes is rather mature, things should generally be quite stable. However, bugs will exist, regressions will occur, so proceed at your own risk.
If stability is required, please download the latest stable release from the official website.
