snes_emulator_n900OK, it's still in the early stages and not available for public but fact that N900 is powerful enough to process and run the SNES emulator with Wiimote support through the TV out is freakin’ awesome.

So if you one of those Nintendo fans who grew up in the NES days and you miss the good old school video games and you are planning to get Nokia N900 you’ll be able to run emulator and play these oldie games straight away on a big screen with intuitive Wiimote controls.

Linux isn't the best possible gaming solution but thanks to the numerous available emulators it is still possible to create a great gaming experience and fortunately Nokia N900 which is also based on the Linux platform is not excepted from this general rule!

Anyway, I just hope that this great work from developers of nrnoksnes is just begging and soon we’ll get more emulators and more games because N900 is build to be an ultimate gaming device, hardware is here and basically all we need are some decent games!

For those of you too young to know, the Super Nintendo Entertainment System or Super NES (also called SNES and Super Nintendo) is a 16-bit video game console that was released by Nintendo in North America, Europe, Australasia (Oceania), and South America between 1990 and 1993.

The Super Nintendo Entertainment System was Nintendo's second home console, following the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). The console introduced advanced graphics and sound capabilities compared with other consoles at the time. Additionally, development of a variety of enhancement chips (which were integrated on game circuit boards) helped to keep it competitive in the marketplace.

The SNES was a global success, becoming the best-selling console of the 16-bit era despite its relatively late start and the fierce competition it faced in North America from Sega's Genesis console. Some consider the SNES to embody the "Golden Age of video games", citing its many groundbreaking games and the perceived focus on gameplay over graphics and technical gimmicks.


Others question this perceived romanticism, believing the system was just another step in the evolution of video game technology. The SNES remained popular well into the 32-bit era, and although Nintendo has dropped all support for the console, it continues to be popular among fans, collectors, retro gamers, and emulation enthusiasts, some of whom are still making "homebrew" ROM images.
