With many games to chose from, it is important to know that while most games run with no problem,
others may not. It is quite possible that your favorite game may not be able to be played on an
emulator. Don't let that disappoint you, because things happen fast in the emulator scene. An updated
version that can run it could be just a week away. In the mean time, there is a substancile amount of
quality games out there worth getting and playing. I recommend people new to the SNES to stick with
the more popular games.
Just about every game without the Super FX chip works.
Games I do not recommend:
Cheap stragy and RPG games and "I heard it sucks" games.
Games
F-Zero 2: Grand Prix
Mario RGP
Simcity 2000
StarFox
Super Mario World 2:Yoshi's Island

Front Ends
If remembering the commands to run a emulator is too confusing for you, try a program called a
Front End. It's basically a little menuing system that assists you by helping you select what
options you want to have when you run the emulator. It may help you out.
-
[Surface] - A front end for Callus, KGen, Nesticle, Magic Engine and SNES9X.
-
[Zmenu] - DOS based.
-
[The Front] - A SNES9X only front end.
-
[FrontX] - Win95 based front end for SNES9X for DOS. (Your other option would be to use less complete version of SNES9X for Win95.
-
SNES Launch Front end for SNES9X
-
[The Front] - Another Front end for SNES9X
-
[Star Launch] a Front end for GenEm, Genecyst, SNES9X, ESNES, Nlksnes, NESTicle and Virtual Gameboy.
-
[EmuLauncher]
-
[Chrome Demon] - Front ends for various SNES, Genesis and TG-16 emulators, all by one guy.
-
[Game Menu] - A universal front end for DOS based emulators.
-
[Ultimenu]- Another universal front end for DOS based emulators
-
[EmuRunner97] - A universal front end for Win95.
-
[UZI] - Front end for the popular ZSnes emulator.

Translation Sites
Sometimes, a game manufacture will, (for one reason or another) releases a game only to one part of
world and either give the the rest of the world a differnet version of that game or no version at all!
But now with the widespread popularity of the net, versions of popular games like FF3 found only in
other countries can now be downloaded of the web and played on you machine at home. The only problem is,
most of these games are in another language! Fortunatly, a few groups of people have worked together to
translate these games to english or some other lanuage so the rest of us can understand what we are
playing.
Most of these links are down! I will repair them when I have time.
