Nestopia overview
Nestopia is a Nintendo NES emulator for Mac OS X. Nestopia is by far the most compatible of any NES emulator for Mac OS X. Using cycle-exact emulation, it is able to run titles that rely on precise timing, and which therefore break under other emulators. It supports five extra sound chips and an astonishing 143 mappers. This accurate emulation comes at a cost; Nestopia requires an 800MHz machine for full speed; but if you have one, this the best available NES emulation for Mac.
Nestopia was initially developed for Windows by Martin Freij. The original sources may be downloaded from the Nestopia home page. The toolkit used to develop the Mac port, including the bridge code to link it to Nestopia, will be available in the longer term from my developer pages. Certain portions are available now, and more will be added in the future. Further information is also available from the enclosed Read Me file.

I'm new to emulators, and I don't even know if this should be under troubleshooting, but how do I download games to go on it? Thanks.

Works great on MBP Lion, although the controls are not adequately explained. Also, some features are intentionally excluded and sold as a separate shareware add-on.

does anyone know why the game genie codes for legend to zelda worked for the first few hours of the game but now will not work??? have re-entered them correctly a million times,restarted game,loaded saved states etc. still they dont work anymore. where is the data stored for the game genie function to work??? i emailed the developer but he doesnt why. is it bc of lion 10.7.4?? but if that was the case why the hell ddid everything work perfectly and i mean everything in unison,the controll/joystick with emulator enhancer demo,game genie codes,freeze/load states,everything was working perfectly before. i unistalled and reinstalled completely and still same problem. its either the rom itself or nestopia.
