I know that super Nintendo emulators have been around for quite some time, but here lately I have rediscovered them. I recently acquired a ProBox2 which is an Android based media center. It comes with a SuperNES style game controller with a dpad and 4 button setup. I decided to grab a Super Nintendo emulator and Rom downloader. I was super surprised at just how great these emulators work these days on our modern devices. The first time I tried out an emulator it was super buggy. The games would lag and eventually crash. This is no longer the case.
The best emulator that I was able to find was the SuperGNES Lite. It allowed me to use my game controller without having to go into settings and change the mapping of the buttons. My Daughter and I played super mario brothers for hours. You would be surprised at how quickly the mechanics and controls come back to you even after not having played these games for the past 20 years! Head to the links below for my best set up.
Emulator : SuperGNES Lite
