With the exception of PasoFami, a really good Nintendo emulator has yet to
exist for MS-DOS, so the only resort (other than patience) seems to be
registering Marat Fayzullan's interNES for Windows 95.
Speed on interNES v0.6r is MUCH MUCH improved, infact, interNES v0.6r will run perfectly on a 486 DX4/100 without sound enabled. With sound enabled, interNES will also play perfectly, but with a frame rate of 2. Still, interNES remains one of the fastest Nintendo emulators, second only to PasoFami. Compatibility on interNES is MUCH superior to any other current Nintendo Emulator. Super Mario Bros. 3 and many other games using Memory Mapper 4 run incredibly well, while on PasoFami, the games would do little at all. Other options with interNES v0.6r include full four button joystick (Windows 95 only), window-resizing, and autofire! Why then might interNES v0.6r not be worth the money you might ask... well, for one, as with many emulators, interNES is not the exclusive Nintendo emulator, and with upcoming projects like qNES that promises to run full screen under MS-DOS and be provided as freeware, patience may be a virtue. Also, for those who feel that Marat doesn't deserve the money that he receives for his Windows versions (of which pale to their DOS and Linux counterparts), piracy is in store. Perhaps if interNES was an MS-DOS application, I would feel different... but until then, interNES is a great intermediate until a better emulator is released... interNES for Windows 32-Bit, with Joystick and Sound support under Windows 95 v0.6 registered, and a subscription to all future updates is available from Marat Fayzullan for $35. Pirated copies are easily traceable to their sources, and it is assumed that anyone willing to buy interNES would have the integrity to not redistribute their copy.
