Thanks Michael.  I'm glad you liked the demo.

I personally use an original XBox controller that plugs in through USB and has a similar layout to the old Snes controllers. The Snes9x emulator can work with a lot of different game pads, and it uses the keyboard by default.

Nah, not really anything you can help with, sorry.
Though I do appreciate the enthusiastic words about the project.
My biggest hurdle for all of my projects is usually motivation and interest.
And people being excited about a project can help me get re-motivated on it.

I'll get back to this project at some point as I'd love to play some of these old games again myself, but I've got a number of other things on my plate at the moment.

I used to play vicariously through sighted friends on those types of
games.. think I even played both of those. I'm sure we played Lufia.
I miss those days, a lot.
I'd love to see this go further, though I'd likely stop doing much of
anything to play all those games again. lol
I think snes had some of the best rpgs around.
I'm curious though, do you have to get a controller with some kind of
adaptive port to do that, or did you set up your keyboard to act as
the controller?
Also, is there any way us complete techno-barbarians could help out
with that project?
Things like that make me wish I had some programming skills in even
one fingernail. grins

Wow, that was amazing!

Those games reminded me of what I used to play on the snes and genesis as
well as the playstation.
I think final fantasy 3 I think it was that was on the snes.  There was
others but it is hard to remember all of them.

Anyway, thanks for showing that!  It was really cool!

Chrono Trigger and Lufia 2

Hi all,

A while ago I started a project to see if I could make Chrono Trigger, and
possibly other games, accessible when played through the Snes9x emulator.
I hadn't worked on this project for a while but was looking at starting it
up again and thought I'd make a quick demo to show people how far it got.

It shows Chrono Trigger and Lufia 2.
I'm calling the project SNAP, short for Super Nintendo Accessibility
Project.
Enjoy!
