EmuCR:SNES9x for PS3SNES9x for PS3 is released. Developer eiz has ported SNES9X — a Super Nintendo Emulator — to the PS3.

I got my Teensy++ Thursday and decided to port SNES9x (Super Nintendo Emulator) over to the PS3 as a little exercise to play with the Cell SDK.

It's pretty rough but it seems to work OK. It will load (uncompressed) ROMs off of /dev_usb000.

If anyone is interested, the code is linked above via GitHub with a binary attached below.

It's a new port to PS3 LV2 OS based on the vanilla SNES9x source.

To build:

* Install Cell SDK >= 1.92. You know how to find it. Configure according to the install instructions (make sure to set CELL_SDK).
* Make pkg
* Load the pkg and your ROMs onto a usb drive.
* Install on PS3 using your jailbreak device of choice.

Things that suck:

* Lots of SNES9x features are not supported yet. No save states, for example. Most of these are really simple to implement.
* Sound code is rubbish. It more or less works, but you'll probably hear the occasional skip.
* Performance isn't great.
* UI. Or rather, there isn't one.
* So much more.

  1. This is truly amazing! I have relly waited for this day to come! Now it all begins :D
    Wow.. think what the wii homebrew community is like. And then think what the PS3 comunnity could look like then! Jusst WOW! I saw a PSP launcher for the PS3 yesterday. If that is possible. Then it might be kinda easy to port the PSP homebrews to the PSP two! Im really exited right now!
