ZSNES board

For me there is no comparison. bsnes is the best snes emulator by far. I can't stand to play any of the other ones because of poor sound emulation and/or display issues I don't like. Having both a real snes and bsnes, I find I prefer playing bsnes. Its come a long way in the past 4 years! Thank you...

This was a problem with earlier Microsoft operating systems where frequency the application output determined the frequency of the stream the sound card driver received. Resampling was then done by the driver or the audio chip and could be poor e.g. Creative. Or non-existent in which case you got an...

Besides, it had to run under DOS where the "standard" win32 widgetry (hahahaha) was not available. And to make sure they never changed their minds, they wrote the GUI (like the rest of zsnes) as a kiloton of assembly instead of writing it in some panzy high-level language like C. If by &q...

I always find this complaint hilarious, given that commercial entertainment software goes out of it's way to AVOID the standard OS windowframe+bar GUI. Hell, even MS and Apple do it in their own products(Windows Media Player? iTunes?) 1. WMP has one of the worst UIs ever, at least from the point of...

It also gives one major advantage: you can control the entire UI from a gamepad / joystick, so you don't have to sit in front of your PC to play games. Something native GUIs cannot do on their own. But with a standard interface everything is the same between emulators and other types of software so...

It's a heavy price to pay for DOS support. Are there conclaves of DOS users hiding out in a jungle somewhere?

Why still the non-standard menu bar in the first screenshot? It looks like it's a DOS program being emulated in a window. (Better than the current version where it looks like a DOS program being badly emulated in a broken window!) It's important to fix these GUI issues because that's the main proble...
