lolSnes is a SNES emulator for the Nintendo DS.

Features

• CPU - 99% (all opcodes emulated; may miss a few unimportant bits about timing).
• PPU - ~40% (mode 1 BGs, OBJs, mosaic, master brightness, giant kludge for BG3 prio).
• SPC700 - 80% (most useful opcodes implemented, CPU/SPC I/O, timers).
• DSP - 0% (no sound).
• SRAM with auto-saving.

Installation

Download contains the latest Git build (2014/01/01) and official version 1.0 (2013/08/24).

To install, place lolsnes.nds in your flashcart's root folder. In the same folder, create a folder named snes, and place your ROMs in there.

You can place savefiles from other emulators too. They have to have the same name as the corresponding ROMs and have .srm extensions.

lolSnes is able to properly detect the ROM type in most cases. Headered and headerless ROMs are supported, both LoROM and HiROM.

User guide

Start lolSnes and select your ROM in the menu. If all goes well, you should see it run. If not, you'll stay in the menu.

Note that there's no pause/stop/reset feature yet, so if you want to run a different ROM, you need to reset your DS.
