Super ZSNES – GPU Powered SNES Emulator

Welcome to SUPER ZSNES The two original developers of ZSNES are finally back together! Introducing SUPER ZSNES! Re-written completely from scratch, this GPU-powered SNES emulator is here to bring you the following: some of what is familiar, some of what's new, and then some of what goes beyond. Key Features Far more accurate CPU and Audio cores than the original ZSNES GPU-powered PPU core to allow for hi-res Mode 7 and special per-game enhancement features Classic UI with falling snow, modernized with higher definition and improved UX Fast forward, rewind, save states, auto save history, save bookmarks, cheat codes, quick load, and more No Vibe Coding. Classic development style. Super Enhancement Engine, where the ZSNES developers are enhancing the games one at a time Super Enhancement Engine Currently implemented with support for 7 popular games. Support for more games will keep increasing as this emulator is in development. High Resolution - Not just an auto upscalar, but an internal drawing program is used to make sure that the higher resolution details can be manually drawn to look nice and crisp. Texture/Normal Map - Adds some nice details to the backgrounds to give them a higher resolution look. Overclock - Select games often filled with slowdown are overclocked. Wide Screen (where available) - We enable widescreen whenever the game is internally coded to support partial or full widescreen. Uncompressed Audio Replacement - We curate and pick uncompressed audio samples to replace original highly compressed audio samples. 3D - Currently only supported on perspective-style Mode 7, replaces tiles with 3D height mapped data. All enhancements can be individually disabled to suit your play style. Note: Enhancement data contains no ROM or copyrighted data. You will need to provide the ROMs. Do not ask the developers for ROMs. Downloads Windows Download Mac Download Linux Download Android Google Play iOS Coming Soon What's Coming Bug fixes Special chip emulation (DSP1, SuperFX, etc.) More optimization work More types of enhancements Netplay Other features Notes & Legal This is an early build, so there are still emulation bugs and special chips (DSP1, SuperFX, etc.) have yet to be implemented.
