SNesoid (SNES Emulator): A must have for kids from the nineties

80cent · June 17th, 2010, 12:46 PM

I still love nineties video games. Final Fantasy 3, Earthbound, Super Mario RPG-- those are the highlights of my Junior High experience. And now they're with me at all times.

The reason this is superior to an actual SNES is due to the saving option. You won't ever need to wait to find a save point before logging off your gaming session.

For me, I feel like most of the games on the Android market are now a waste of my time after having this invaluable application.

Saves aren't available on free version, so that combined with Game Genie cheat options, this application is a must for any child of the nineties.

agree, i'm once again immersed in Final Fantasy 3...and might beat it for the first time. Friend and I used to get to the floating continent than restart everytime lol.

Save yourself the time and get "rombuddy" it's a huge library of downloadable games. I've found all of my younger years classics here for a cheap one time price (purchase the app from the market or elsewhere).

I shall be getting SNESoid, if not just for Super Mario World!

lakai113 · August 4th, 2010, 07:05 PM

just downloaded and getting some games now.. chances are i will be back asking some questions

twister6 · August 5th, 2010, 09:19 PM

Still, where and how do you find games to use with this emulator? anybody?

jay127 · August 6th, 2010, 09:13 AM

ive downloaded it, but how do i see the games, super mario world in particular??

jonbonazza · August 6th, 2010, 11:58 AM

*sigh* people need to realize that this is just an emulator. it does NOT include the games. Downloading the games is considered piracy unless you have the original copy and even just asking where to find them is against this board's rules. At any rate, the games are ripped from the cartridge and packed into a compressed format called a ROM. Just search Google for SNES ROMs and you should have no trouble finding them. Someone should write the developers of the android emulators and tell them to explain that in their description or have a pop-up that lets the users know. This question is asked in a million different threads...

when i go to buy the full version it tells me there is an error and wont save my card info.. do you guys have any idea on how to make this work?

JubbaTheHutt · August 19th, 2010, 09:20 PM

What file types (ROM file types) is it supposed to run? I downloaded a ROM but the app says "No appropriate files in this folder."

ukulele_ninja · August 29th, 2010, 09:04 AM

I have an older version of snesoid but i need to update it to play Mario RPG, anyone know how to update it?

UniversalGhost · August 30th, 2010, 11:32 PM

Is there a licensed version of something like this I can buy?

onefreeman · October 13th, 2010, 01:24 AM

is this compatible with n64 games?

Well, as OS of Android you do not need one of them. Android operating system will handle your memory than you can, what do you think is the real agitation of your battery is most likely only confirm the prejudices and observe the effect.

Say what?

I'm sorry, but I don't understand a single word of that - what where you trying to say?

AntiTrolla · July 2nd, 2011, 10:30 PM

I love this emu kinda things, but I always get bored with them. When I was a kid, I plaid a lot of SNES etc., but it feels like nothing today...

Ingenu · July 14th, 2011, 07:12 PM

That's cause the touch screen controls are tedious and ruin the fun!

drjosephbell · July 15th, 2011, 11:05 AM

i agree but id still like to try it.. does this emulator and the roms work on an UNrooted phone?

Bedroid · August 1st, 2011, 08:57 AM

Great, now I finally get to finish playing through Chrono Trigger

deidein · January 4th, 2012, 04:57 PM

Everyone who downloads and plays a ROM is using licensed material and it can, in theory, be an actionable thing (i.e. you get sued/otherwise in trouble). The risk is incredibly low, due to the fact there are billions out there to download and hardly anybody enforcing it. The ROMs should be somewhere you can wipe them fast if you're crossing borders and they happen to gank your phone, because they can toss that copyright infringement crap on your list of charges.
Also, be extremely cautious and virus-scan every download. The search for ROMs leads to a lot of places that are too good to be true.

Again, I'm not doomsaying, I just thought it was an important fact to point out, and I hadn't seen it mentioned. AFK, playing Super Dodge Ball on a ... NES... thing...

luqius · January 29th, 2012, 03:31 PM

If you liked the SNES emu you might also wanna try a gameboy emulator.
Pokemon red was really fun to play with that.

Ludikhris · February 1st, 2012, 08:43 PM

Had to have an epic sized sd card just to carry all my emu games. Love Snesoid

Kasru · April 11th, 2012, 12:38 AM

I must get this app! I'm a big fan of emulators and earthbound is sure a hard game to find and is rather expensive!
