they are both equally good but ZSNES has the upper hand i believe. Snes9x was good for while but now I think ZSNES now owns Snes9x in the SNES emulation world...however, there are only a few games the Snes9x can run but ZSNES can't...

so yeah...my choice is they are both fine

ZSNES for everything, Snes9X for everything else

ZSNES is just "Better" in more ways than one

I think Snes9X is better because it's the actual size, and you can load and save Save States much faster. It also has easier-to-work controller settings.

Yeah, if any emulator uses a Windows file menu for save states these days, well...

It's super-easy in ZSNES to switch between save states or to do pretty much anything. The best SNES emulator, period.

I'm using ZSNES Win only ... currently I don't have any other SNES emulator on my computer
Very high compatibility with lots of games, always the proper speed using Auto Framerate; plus great accessibility using the keys; like the mentioned save states, slowdown modes and others.
There might be a little number of games which troubles emulators a little, like the combination of New GFX Engine or Windowed Mode setting, but I think it's the game itself what troubles the emulators - like Tactics Ogre for example

ZSNES for 90% of games, Snes9x for the other 10% or so that ZSNES can't run correctly.

SNES9x for me, I prefer Windowsprogramms with a Windows Standard GUI, espesially on an older computer like mine.

Well, in the beginning, I only used Snes9X because that was the first SNES emulator i ever tried and i found out that i liked it.

Later on, Kitten Yiffer made me try Zsnes and now i

If you can run ZSNES then use it, I like it more than SNES9X.
But for SNES ROM hacking I usually stick to SNES9X because I don't have to go full screen in order to play, I know, you don't have to in ZSNES either, but I have to. For some reason, when I go from Windows 98 to XP ZSNES only runs in ONE fullscreen mode, the rest all give a black screen.

Zsnes, it works better with the games I use.

But I do have Snes9X, so long I know two games that works better in Snes9X than Zsnes.

Simant and Simearth. And they aren't great games...

Snes9x is better in my opinion. I just like it's feel better.

ZSnes works perfect for me, runs faster and looks better. No contest.
And regarding save states, F2/F4 (or just Shift, L/Shift, R on my joypad) is pretty instantaneous.

When I do emulate, I use Zsnes for all my emulation needs. It has served my family for generations, and it looks foreward to serving you too.

Zsnes. The Freshmaker.

The only thing I don't like about Zsnes is the fact that you need DirectX. My install file of DX8.1 is for friggin 95/98/ME, I use 2K!

*Downloads installation file for DX9.0b for 2K*

Fixed. Zsnes is faster, ran full speed on my 200MHz, and save states (when needed) were instantaneous. My only gripe is the fact that I don't have a controller for it. Otherwise I'm all set.

I actually prefer snes9xpp.
It is basically snes9x, but with a few more features and a better (in my opinion) interface. It also has the lq2x filter.
