I mean, if Byuu did die, that means Bsnes and Higan no longer need to be licensed since the only license distributor is dead. Watch companies and people start using them and him reviving magically.
Whoever his natural heirs are, presumably his closest surviving relation, would now own the copyrights, although the rules of intestate succession in relation to copyrights sometimes works weirdly. I'm not sure it matters because I believe bsnes was released under the GPL anyway, so you already could use it.

ZSNES and SNES9x are two different things. You're better off with 9X since it can play more shit and is updated.

Everyone saying to use ZSNES is either retarded about emulation or just dunking on byuu.
Seconded. ZSNES is a meme at this point, better GUI but let's face it, it craps out at any modern romhack. When people defend it like they're "cooler than the emu nerds", dude, it's like the fucking special olympics here
 
If it turns out he faked his death do you think the twitter troons will bully him into suicide for real?
I've seen a pretend suicide that was similar to this one before, and when he finally came back, everyone welcomed him with the usual "so glad you're back" and "hope ur ok :) love ur content". The few people that called him out for faking his suicide for attention were shouted down, labeled toxic and hateful, the usual stuff. TF2 community is really special

I'd expect the majority to welcome Near back and pretend to be his biggest fan on Twitter. There probably will be people that give him shit for faking suicide, but the majority will just assume they are KiwiFarms trolls for making light of a suicidal person and ignore the core of the message.
 
I'd rather use ZSNES. Especially since I figured out how to update ZMZ with Snesx9 cores. Thanks for taking out the guess work on what emulator to go with Byuu.

Also, fun fact, Byuu had a 'tism fit over Retroarch as does other emulator makers who hate seeing their work turned into a plug-in lul.
Retroarch is fucking shit for PC, but that's a UI problem, inherited by it being an emulator system for console peasants. Nigga, I never used the PS3 GUI, just give us some normal PC GUI! Mesen and Mesen S are also cycle accurate emulators, yet they have probably tue best UI since ZSNES.
 
Anyone speak japanese? Call the arakawa police in japan and ask if an American committed suicide. You would think it would be newsworthy in japan if an American was found dead.
a baka gaijin hikikomori committing sudoku should be big news in grorious nippon
 
Excuse my newfaggotry, but do all of the troons claiming to have Farms threads on themselves actually telling the truth? Because, as this website is about cataloging the activities of weirdos online, I don't think that I've seen a thread about a person that just said "trans on the internet, get 'em boys".
The ones who do have threads tend to either be massive spergs on twitter or other sites, grifters, convicted felons, or some combination of the three.

Oh, that explains Retroarch's insane autism. I just thought the creator of it had autism levels that out did CWC. Mesen is great~ I use it and I love the thing.

Also, "one single controller scheme for the entire GUI and all systems" is the most retarded piece of shit, I just wanna play on my PC with different replica gamepads, fuck retroarch
 
Wonder if now Higan is under the most "permissible" license, does that mean Nintendo can use it instead of their shitty in-house emulators?

Great job byuu, you'll be remembered as the tranny who saved a bunch of overworked programmers time and money on reverse engineering their hardware, or Nintendo sees the baggage that comes with using your shit and never touch it.
It's GPL3, so any modifications to it would have to be released under the same license as well, which Nintendo would never do. They're not gonna touch Higan with a ten mile pole.
