Ars Technica: “Super ZSNES” is a stab at a modern SNES emulator from the original developers. “ZSNES developed rapidly (alongside the contemporary, competing Snes9x project) throughout the late ’90s and early 2000s. Updates slowed after the original creators left the project, and new releases ceased entirely around 2007. But a successor to ZSNES has arrived.”

Here's « Super ZSNES », the comeback but with refinements. Entire #SNES graphics processing is no longer handled by the CPU but the GPU using shaders, not just filters but the entire display : sprites, transparency, backgrounds, Mode 7 … and this makes possible high resolution without using an upscaler, to add a whole range of filters and even to have a true 16:9 mode 🎮
