SNES9x is an emulator for Nintendo's 16 bit home gaming console, the
"Super Nintendo".  It featured sequels to most of the games that the
8 bit Nintendo made famous, as well as having some new gems of its
own.  Through the magic of Scitech's Multiplatform Graphics Library
(MGL), this gaming experience can now be brought natively to OS/2
users.

Retrocade is an emulator which specializes in arcade classics.  It
has an attractive and futuristic user interface built in, and boasts
well-optimized assembly code for maximum emulation performance with
minimal performance impact to other concurrently running
applications.

Both of these emulators have been updated as follows:

SNES9x changes:
  * Updated to work with SDD beta 31, SDD SE 7.0.2, and higher 
  * Using a newer version of MGL [should get rid of "No error" error
    messages] 
  * Joystick support with the Enhanced Joystick driver by Vesa J. 
  * PM Configuration program 
  * Remappable keyboard 
  * Ability to save PNG screenshots as a game is running 
  * Ability to save and load Super Nintendo states 
  * Ability to switch to your desktop and back without exiting or
video
    corruption

Retrocade changes:
  * Updated to work with SDD beta 31, SDD SE 7.0.2, and higher 
  * Using a newer version of MGL [should get rid of "No error" error
    messages] 
  * Fixed a small bug that didn't allow lower resolution screen modes
    to be used even when they were appropriate
