It’s been an exciting week due to the fact that the SNES emulator for the iPod Touch has been released. I must say that I was probably one of the first people to download the full public release, not the beta version.
While this is the first version of the public release, it is not without problems. I think this is expected at this point. It took quite some time for the NES emulator to run as smoothly as it does now and there are still even minor problems with it.
I have been playing around with it for a few days now and have tested a good amount of SNES ROMs. Some of these roms work great, while others are barely playable. I would expect to see this improved with every new update.
