Rilasciata la versione pubblica 0.2 dell'emulatore per SuperNintendo Snes9xTYL. Già dalla prima versione resa disponibile si è subito rivelato un ottimo emulatore: offriva infatti un'ottima compatibilità con il parco giochi SNES e un framerate abbastanza buono.
In questa nuova release si migliora ulteriormente, sia a livello di core (con ottimizzazioni nel codice) che di interfaccia grafica.
Le novità sono qui riepilogate nel changelog, mentre l'emulatore lo trovate nella zona download del nostro sito PSP-Tribe.com:
