Description-en: Accurate Nintendo multi-system emulator
higan is an emulator for Nintendos SNES, NES, Gameboy, Gameboy Color
and Gameboy Advance. It was formerly called bsnes and the SNES
emulation is especially complete and polished.
.
higan strives to provide the most faithful hardware emulation possible.
It focuses on accuracy and clean code, rather than speed and special
features. It is meant as a reference emulator to document how the underlying
hardware works. As a result the minimum system requirements are high.
.
There are three profiles that govern the amount of accuracy and required
system resources of the SNES emulation. Which profile to use can be set with:
.
# update-alternatives --config higan
