higan (formerly known as bsnes) is an emulator that began development
on 2004-10-14. The purpose of this emulator is a bit different from
others: it focuses on accuracy, debugging functionality, and clean
code. The emulator does not focus on things that would hinder accuracy.
This includes speed and game-specific hacks for compatibility. As a
result, the minimum system requirements for higan are very high.
It currently supports the following systems: Famicom (NES), Super
Famicom (SNES), Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance and
Nintendo DS. It also supports the following subsystems: Super Game
Boy, BS-X Satellaview and Sufami Turbo.
Options:
1) higan has 2 interfaces to choose from. The default is QT
and the other is GTK. If you'd like to choose the GTK interface,
then pass INTERFACE=gtk to the slackbuild.
2) There are 3 modes that higan can be built. There can only be one
mode chosen at build time. The 3 modes are accuracy, balanced (default),
and performance. To choose accuracy mode pass PROFILE=accuracy to
the slackbuild. For performance mode pass PROFILE=performance to the
slackbuild.
Configuration:
Once installed, you will need to copy /usr/share/higan/profile/*
into ~/.config/higan/ before running. If you want to use shaders,
select OpenGL as the video driver.
