minus-squareBezier@suppo.filinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up21·3 months agoI guess people are assuming it runs whatever third party emulator. It was at least how I first imagined it. If that’s the case, it’s in my opinion very embarrassing: attempting to profit from stuff made by the community they act extremely hostile towards. If not, I guess it’s just mildly embarrassing that they have a poorly concealed windows machine taking away from the immersion.

minus-squarelowleveldata@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down2·3 months agoIt’s a weird assumption. Like I said, emulation for backward compatibility is common. Do they always just wait for some random strangers to implement an emulator for them?

Nintendo has some serious emulation experts for building products, but this setup rigged by some museum staff could be anything. Do they always just wait for some random strangers to implement an emulator for them? Waiting? There is zero chance availability is an issue. There are many ready to go snes emulators for windows out there.
