Snes4iphone
From Zodipedia
| ||||||||||||||
snes4iphone is a Super Nintendo emulator for the iPhone and iPod Touch. This port was developed by ZodTTD and the original source code was ported from Dr. PocketSNES. Though much of Dr PocketSNES' emulation cores were replaced with C/C++ alternatives to assembly cores provided. This is due to Apple using a specific register (R9) globally, disallowing many tightly written assembly sources to be used.
As of November 17th all versions are available for download through RockApp.

[edit] Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- How do I install snes4iphone on my iPhone/iPod Touch ?
- Use RockApp.
- How do I transfer ROMs to my iPhone/iPod Touch ?
- Follow this SSH tutorial. ROMs must be placed in /var/mobile/Media/ROMs/SNES
- Alternatively, you can install both Safari Downloader (free) and iFile ($4) through Cydia. Safari Downloader allows you to download files onto your iPhone, but you need iFile (or something similar) to move the files to the appropriate location. iFile can also extract compressed files and set file permissions. Remember to set file permissions to Read/Write/Execute for User, Group and World.
