NesCafe v0.55

posted in Emulator Release by spacetiger on Oct 19th, 2004

NesCafe is a NES emulator written entirely for Java and is, therefore, platform independent. It was the first Java emulator to support sound and this latest version also greatly expands on the emulator's capabilities:
  • 77 new Mappers supported (including fixes to existing Mappers)
  • Better Implementation of handling UP+DOWN or LEFT+RIGHT
  • Embedded NESCafe ROM into the main distribution
  • Game Images are stored as DDNB files
  • No longer reset PPU address mode during Vertical Blank
  • Reading from VRAM in ppuRead correctly mirrors the Palette memory
  • Remove Processor Interface to increase speed
  • Added code to correct incorrectly dumped ROM images (partial implementation)
  • Added code to change clock cycles for specific games (such as Battletoads and SMB3)
  • Larger screen sizes are now supported in Applet mode
The binary, applet, and source can all be downloaded from our NES Emulators for Java page. Thanks to David de Niese for the news.
